HEDNO signed an 18-month turnkey contract for three onshore-power-supply systems at Igoumenitsa Port. The official release defines two 3 MVA positions and one 0.5 MVA position for Ro-Pax vessels, covering design, supply, installation, testing and commissioning. TED reports a EUR 6,820,000 contract to Paralos Systems Industry and names Paralos Energy, Controls Vasiloglou and Siemens A.G. as subcontractors without publishing their workshare or subcontract values. Igoumenitsa Port Authority coordinates the wider CEF-backed ALFION-INFRA programme, while HEDNO is the client for this electrical package. The programme's 31 December 2026 end date and the contract's 18-month delivery period do not form one reconciled public completion baseline.

Project anatomy

Contract scope and delivery roles

Client / authority
Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator S.A. (HEDNO), within the Igoumenitsa Port Authority-coordinated ALFION-INFRA programme
Delivery parties
Paralos Systems Industry / Paralos S.A. - prime turnkey contractor; TED identifier EL-800712539, Paralos Energy - named subcontractor; project-specific scope and value not published, Controls Vasiloglou - named subcontractor; project-specific scope and value not published, Siemens A.G. - named subcontractor; project-specific scope and value not published
Contract route
HEDNO open procedure 5124163, also referenced by TED contract identifier 51241631. TED notice 352742-2025 opened the procurement and result notice 104641-2026 records contract conclusion on 11 February 2026, EUR 6.82 million total value, an earlier EUR 7.14 million estimate, an 18-month duration and the named prime and subcontractors.
Execution window
HEDNO's 12 February 2026 release says the three systems will be delivered within the following 18 months, implying a contract window extending into 2027 if measured from signature. ALFION-INFRA's published programme period ends on 31 December 2026, while Igoumenitsa Port Authority separately describes infrastructure completion by 2026. No official record reconciles those dates or publishes an accepted baseline programme, site-possession date or phased commissioning sequence.
Works package
Design, supply, install, test and commission three turnkey OPS/Cold Ironing systems for passenger and cargo ferry operations: two positions rated at 3 MVA and one at 0.5 MVA. The systems are intended to let berthed Ro-Pax vessels shut down auxiliary engines and draw electricity from the distribution network. ALFION-INFRA separately includes an energy-management system and studies and tender documentation for one additional cruise-vessel OPS position; that study position is not presented as a fourth installed system under this contract.
Marine interfaces
The package joins HEDNO's distribution network to three live ferry berths through shore-side switchgear, protection, earthing, transformers or conversion equipment, cable management and vessel interfaces. Ro-Pax calls, apron traffic, salt exposure, berth access, electrical shutdowns, harbour safety and vessel compatibility all affect delivery. Under FuelEU Maritime, in-scope passenger ships must use OPS from 2030 in ports covered by Article 9 of AFIR and from 2035 in any port that develops OPS, subject to stated exceptions. The European Commission separately identifies berth-equipment availability, grid stability and ship-shore compatibility, so installed equipment, available power, a compatible vessel connection and accepted service are distinct milestones. The cited project records do not identify berth numbers, cable-management OEM, frequency-conversion arrangement, civil routes, planned outage windows, first compatible vessels or which calls fall within the AFIR denominator.
Commercial evidence boundary
TED reports EUR 6.82 million for the executed contract against a EUR 7.14 million procedure estimate. Igoumenitsa Port Authority reports EUR 8.925 million for the wider ALFION-INFRA programme, funded 85% through CEF grant 101122898. These are different cost bases. Subcontract values, payment milestones, package allocation, variations, forecast final cost and final account remain unpublished in the cited record.

Evidence gap

What remains unverified

Outstanding evidence

  • Accepted contract programme versus the 31 December 2026 CEF programme end date
  • Berth numbers and the allocation of the two 3 MVA and one 0.5 MVA systems
  • Project-specific scopes and values for Paralos Energy, Controls Vasiloglou and Siemens
  • Cable-management, transformer, converter, switchgear and protection suppliers
