Over the first nine months of this year, the CEZ Group recorded CZK 147 bn in Operating Revenue, with its Operating Profit Before Depreciation (EBITDA) reaching CZK 54.7 bn and the Net Earnings ending at CZK 19.6 bn. Since all conditions precedent defined in the Settlement Agreement made with the Albanian Government have been fulfilled, the CEZ Group has raised its outlook for the all-year EBITDA to CZK 72.0 bn. The Albanian Government should gradually repay a total of EUR 100 million, with the installments being fully guaranteed by a renown European bank. ČEZ will thus obtain an amount close to the value of its original investment.

On the premises of the Secretariat of the Energy Community in Vienna, the Parties mutually confirmed that all conditions precedent had been fulfilled; thus, the Settlement Agreement took effect as made between companies of the CEZ Group and Albania in June of this year. According to the Agreement, ČEZ is going to receive a total of EUR 100 million, an amount similar to its initial investment in acquiring the Albanian power distribution company.

Masked police, gunfire or smoke grenades. So looked one of working meeting demonstrations, which took place today at the Nuclear Power Plant Temelín. Representatives from State Office for Nuclear Safety, the Integrated Rescue System, regional administration and government and Nuclear Power Plant Temelín discussed the lesson learned from the events at Fukushima NPP. Neither a representative of the European Commission was missing. Czech Police made the dynamic final dot of the meeting. For the first time in the presence of media, they demonstrated detention of persons who illegally leaked into the site of the largest Czech power plant.
