"The need of Mr. is completely understandable. Ioannidis for a little ephemeral publicity, even if it is accompanied by his known exaggerations and inaccuracies.
It has obviously been affected by the switch, shows the faction he handed over in relation to his own priorities in tackling climate change and confuses me with them.
In everything,what concerns me:
I was in favor of the construction of the Ptolemaida V unit as ND was, SYRIZA, PASOK, the KKE, the Administrations of PPC SA and the entire local labor movement. This is the truth.
During the period when I held a position of responsibility in the Municipality, with coordinated action of the Network of Energy Municipalities we managed to increase the Local resource in 0.5 % of the turnover of PPC (increase 25 %), we launched bioclimatic projects, we explored alternative sources of supply for District Heating, we documented the new identity of the Municipality, we implemented a huge development project in culture, in renovation projects, in infrastructure
Today, we continue consistently on the path of climate neutrality, of RES, of green growth, adopting the central policy of the European Union, the Green Deal, because this imposes the interest of the place and its inhabitants.
In difficult times for the region, we chose to leave behind the period of inactivity, the period when the rent was called a "concession", the period when those in charge turned a blind eye to the economic and population shrinking of the place, the period when they made absolutely no move for the future of District Heating.
Some live in the past, in the posted report of their work, we chose to move forward "
