Transformation and Digitisation Projects
Modernisation of Network Control in the rest of the country
We are proceeding with the modernisation of the CEDs of the three regions:
Macedonia-Thrace Region Directorate (DPM-Th) | Central Greece Region Directorate (DKE) | Peloponnese-Epirus Region Directorate (PPP-H) through the installation of new Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition Data Management System (SCADA-DMS) and communication with Remote Terminal Units (RTUs) at the High/Mid Voltage substations. At the same time, we are creating the necessary infrastructure to support the three integrated CCSs.
We expect to complete the project in 2025 with the operation of the three Regional Distribution Network Control Centers (DNCCs) — Macedonia-Thrace Region Department, Peloponnese-Epirus Region Department, and Central Greece Region Department— under the newly reorganized structure of the two Control Centers for the Northern and Southern Networks.
Completion of individual works:
- We have completed the supply, installation, and operation of three Central Control Systems (one for each Region) and one Disaster Recovery Control System for the Attica Region Department, The systems are installed on virtual servers within the Company’s data center.
- We have completed the definition of the key directives for the establishment of the DNCCs (100%), and the following have been implemented:
- Staff training
- Graphic diagramms
- Monitoring of critical alarms
- Standardized naming of elements based on the new rules
Works in progress:
- We are finalizing the installation and replacement of RTUs in HV/MV substations. So far, 61 out of the 74 planned new RTU installations and replacements have been completed.

Project benefits
The benefits of the project implementation include:
Improvement of the reliability of the onshore network (excluding Attica), quality indicators and identification of network weak points.
Concentration and savings of resources, more efficient management of human resources during breakdowns and faster response to outages.
Reducing the load on facilities during periods of high demand and limiting power and energy losses in the network.
Upgrading of network management capabilities, studies and training of relevant staff.
