Greek power utility PPC’s market share contracted by three percentage points in January, from 56.1 to 53.1 percent, in mainland Greece, while the country’s three biggest independent suppliers all gained ground, latest figures published by the energy exchange have shown.
As for the electricity market’s voltage-based sub-categories in January, Mytilineos is the market leader in the high-voltage category with a 39.1 percent market share, and PPC is at the forefront of both the medium and low-voltage categories with respective market shares of 42.6 and 63 percent, the energy exchange data showed.
In December, PPC’s market share remained steady in the low-voltage category, while the company gained two percentage points in the medium-voltage category and shed 24 percentage points in the high-voltage category.
PPC’s considerable market-share loss in the high-voltage category has been mainly brought about by Aluminium of Greece’s shift away from PPC to Protergia, a fellow Mytilineos group member, now the high-voltage category’s market leader.
