The financial closing of the project occurred on 25 August 2022.
Alpha Bank S.A., Eurobank S.A., National Bank of Greece S.A., and Piraeus Bank S.A., acted as arrangers and subscribers of the bond loan of up to €1,007,843,966, while Piraeus Bank S.A. also acted as bondholder agent and National Bank of Greece S.A. as facility agent
