A-S1 | Sustainable Economic Activity |
|
For the first period of application of the Taxonomy framework (FY 2021), the financial activities of PPC were reviewed and included or excluded only on the basis of eligibility and their alignment with the technical criteria provided in the relevant Regulations has not been considered. The economic activities of PPC that were deemed eligible for purposes of the EU Taxonomy, were selected in accordance with the description of these activities and taking into account the corresponding NACE activity codes, as set out in Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139. The accounting policies associated with the preparation of the following key performance indicators (%), are presented in Note 4.4 "Key Accounting Policies" p.201 Financial Report FY2021 | PPC (dei.gr) (Consolidated and Corporate) as of 31 December 2021. The figures used to calculate the key performance indicators have been calculated in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Committee (IASB), their interpretations, and the instructions of Delegated Regulation 2021/2139/EU. PPC’s key performance indicators which relate to activities eligible for Taxonomy purposes for the financial year 2021 appear below: Sustainable capital expenditures: 47.6% Sustainable operating expenses: < 0.01% |

SS-S9 | Customer Grievance Mechanism |
|
Handling of customer complaints and requests. The potential complaints on the part of PPC Customers constitute an opportunity to improve the services provided to them by the Company and increase their satisfaction. Complaints and requests to PPC are submitted in writing by letters (directly from customers, via the Greek Ombudsman and the Hellenic Consumer's Ombudsman, etc.), via email or by telephone to the customer call center (800 900 1000) and an effort is made to respond to all of them. PPC’s main objective is customer service quality and the optimal handling of customer requests. The Company has in place specific and uniform procedures to ensure the fast and efficient handling of its customers’ requests and complaints. These procedures are harmonized with the provisions of the Electricity Supply Code (Government Gazette B 832/09.04.2013) and specifically with the Principles for Managing Consumers’ Requests, Annex III. To this end, PPC has developed and applies the Code for Customer Requests and Complaints Handling, which describes in detail the manner and procedures to be followed by customers, when they need more information and clarifications on issues related to the supply of electricity to their properties and facilities or wish to submit a request/complaint. The Code is posted on the official website of PPC. PPC responded to a total of 4.1 million calls in 2021, of which 3.9 million were requests and the remaining 200,000 were complaints. In addition, it received 89,000 electronic requests for new connections and 261,000 electronic contact forms, of which 950 related to complaints. Finally, it handled 90 requests from RAE, 734 requests from the “Hellenic Consumer's Ombudsman” and the “Greek Ombudsman” and replied to approximately 5,000 written letters submitted by the customers either at PPC stores or at the Company’s headquarters. The above numbers are monitored through a computerized protocol system and a ticketing system. The distinction between a request and a complaint is made by the PPC employee receiving and/or processing the case, judging by the customer’s approach to the issue and the way in which it is addressed to PPC. Beyond the above, there were a significant number of requests or complaints that were submitted orally in the stores, but since they were resolved immediately and did not require special management/entry in the systems, they were not recorded. PPC tries to respond to customer requests and complaints as soon as possible, managing to respond within 1 day to 80% of requests/complaints. It is clarified that requests/complaints that are answered within a period longer than 3 days usually concern cases that are forwarded either to the accounting departments of PPC's headquarters for actions and/or explanations or to the competent PPC stores when they have already been involved in the case and their assistance is required. Delays may also occur in special cases that require further investigation due to the complexity of the matter, and collaboration with other Divisions involved is necessary (e.g. Legal Department, IT Department). Customers’ complaints focus on the following categories: • Customer service In 2021, PPC received: |
