EVN Market Presence
Lower Austria
In recent years, EVN has evolved from a utility company into an energy and environmental services enterprise. In the meantime, the portfolio of services offered by the EVN Group ranges from the supply of electricity, gas and heat to water supply, wastewater treatment and waste incineration.
In Lower Austria, EVN serves more than one million electricity, gas and heating customers. 481,500 inhabitants are being supplied with drinking water. Furthermore, EVN operates a waste incineration plant in Dürnrohr, with a capacity of 300,000 t annually. The service portfolio is complemented by a regional TV and telecommunications infrastructure.
Central and Eastern Europe and South-eastern Europe
As a result of the acquisition of a 67.0% shareholding in each of the two South-eastern Bulgarian electricity supply companies, EVN has been providing electricity since January 2005 to a supply area, encompassing close to 1.6 million end customers and approximately one-third of Bulgaria’s electricity market. In the 2007/08 financial year, EVN successfully concluded the acquisition of TEZ Plovdiv (now EVN Bulgaria Toplofikatsia EAD), Bulgaria‘s second largest district heating plant.
In October 2007, EVN had already successfully completed the scheduled acquisition of the electricity distribution facilities of the local operating company Sunny Beach AD on the Black Sea.
In April 2006, EVN penetrated the Macedonian market with its acquisition of a majority shareholding in the electricity distribution company ESM AD (now EVN Macedonia AD). EVN Macedonia AD supplies electricity to the entire Republic of Macedonia with its approximately two million inhabitants and 720,000 customer installations. The company also owns 11 hydroelectric power plants with a total capacity of 46.5 MW.
Via the German WTE Group, a leading service company for drinking water and wastewater treatment services, EVN succeeded in significantly expanding upon its market position in Central and Eastern Europe.
WTE has already constructed more than 80 wastewater treatment plants serving approximately 10 million people, operating projects in 14 countries.
In recent years, work on a waste incineration facility in this region was also finished.
EVN Group is represented in 20 countries.
