The general mayor of Bucharest, Gabriela Firea, transmitted false, unverified and unfounded information about the activity of ELCEN and ”we analyze, from a legal point of view, the situation in which the baseless statements fall into the category of facts likely to undermine safety,” say representatives of ELCEN.

“ELCEN strongly rejects the false statements and malicious reactions of the general mayor of Bucharest, Gabriela Firea, in an attempt to create artificially and unfounded a connection between the high level of pollution in Bucharest recorded during this period and the ELCEN plants. They do not just hit the company image, but also the ELCEN employees who, in this sensitive context, marked by the rapid spread of coronavirus among the population, come day and night to work and do their duty with responsibility for the electricity and heat they produce to ensure the smooth running of the socio-economic life.

We express our complete disagreement regarding the spread of false information and the misleading of the public opinion by the representative of an institution with a major impact in the community she manages”, a press release of ELCEN shows.
