The Public Power Corporation said yesterday it has yet to decide on the winner of a tender to build a power plant in central Greece. Rival bidders Metka and Damco Energy on Monday both claimed they were the lowest bidders to undertake the construction of an electricity plant for PPC.
“PPC has not yet completed its evaluation procedure to announce the lowest bidder,” the utility said in a stock market filing.
Metka, a subsidiary of metals and engineering group Mytilineos, offered to build the plant for 62,209 euros per megawatt hour compared to an offer of 62,530 euros made by competitors, Metka said in a statement.
Damco said its overall bid was for about 244 million euros, about 20 million euros less than Metka’s overall bid. The project tendered by PPC is for the building and maintenance of a power plant in Aliveri, central Greece. PPC did not give a time frame for its final decision.
