EP UK Investments (EPUKI), which is a part of Energetický a průmyslový holding (EPH), succeeded in the T-4 capacity auction securing the extension of the contracts for the energy supplies into the transmission grid for its Irish power plants Ballylumford, Tynagh, and Kilroot. In addition, EPUKI gained a 10-year capacity contract for Kilroot enabling the decommissioning of the current coal-fired block and replacing it with a low-emission gas-fired unit with an installed capacity of more than 300 MW. Thanks to this investment, the carbon dioxide emissions are expected to drop by approximately 1000 thousand tonnes each year.
