were issued but have not been
adopted  in the accounting period, beginning in January 1st 2016: 
 
·     IFRS 9 Financial Instruments" and subsequent amendments to IFRS 9 - Classification and Measurement 
 
The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2018 and earlier application is permitted.
The final version of IFRS 9 (2014) replaces the guidance in IAS 39 'Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement'
which deals with the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities and it also includes an
expected credit losses model that replaces the incurred loss impairment model used today. Moreover, if a financial
liability has been classified (in accordance to IFRS 9) at fair value through Profit and Loss, any movement in fair value
resulting from a movement in the entity's credit risk, will be accounted for in other comprehensive income instead of in
the income statement. IFRS 9 also establishes a more principles-based approach to hedge accounting and addresses
inconsistencies and weaknesses in the current model in IAS 39. The management of the Group is in the process of assessing
the impact of this amendment on the Group's financial statements. 
 
·     IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts 
 
The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2016. The aim of this interim standard is to
enhance the comparability of financial statements of entities engaged in activities with regulated prices, where
governments regulate the supply and pricing of certain types of activity. These may include the provision of public
services such as gas, electricity and water. Regulatory pricing may have a significant impact on the timing of recognition
and the amount of an entity's revenue. The IASB is scheduled to consider the broader regulatory pricing issues and was
planning to publish a discussion paper on this subject in 2014. In anticipation of the overall project results for
activities with regulated prices, the IASB decided to develop IFRS 14 as a temporary measure. IFRS 14 allows those who
adopt for the first time IFRS to continue to recognize the amounts relating to tariff adjustments in accordance with the
requirements of the previously applied accounting policies when adopting IFRS. However, to enhance comparability with
entities already applying IFRS and do not recognize such amounts, the standard requires that the effect of the pricing
adjustment to be shown separately from other items. An entity that already prepares its financial statements according to
IFRS, can not implement this standard. The European Union has not yet adopted this standard. The management of the Group is
currently assessing the impact of this standard on the Group's financial statements. 
 
3.5 NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE (CONTINUED) 
 
·     IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers 
 
The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2018. The standard, issued on May 2014,
contains more authoritative and precise requirements in comparison to the current standards (IAS 18 and IAS 11). The
objective of the standard is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers
to improve comparability within industries, across industries, and across capital markets. It contains principles that an
entity will apply to determine the measurement of revenue and timing of when it is recognized. The underlying principle is
that an entity will recognise revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity
expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, by applying a five step process. 
 
•       Identify the contract with a customer 
 
•       Identify the performance obligations criteria in the contract 
 
•       Determine the transaction price 
 
•       Allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations 
 
•       Recognize revenue as the entity satisfies a performance obligation 
 
The management of the Group is in the process of assessing the impact of this standard on the Group's financial statements.
The standard has been endorsed by the EU on September 22nd 2016. 
 
·     IFRS 16: Leases 
 
The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2019. IFRS 16 establishes principles for the
recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to the contract, that is for the customer
( "lessees ") and the supplier ('lessor'). The new standard requires lessees to recognize most of the leases in their
financial statements. Lessees will have a single accounting framework for all leases, with some exceptions. Accounting
treatment for lessors remains essentially unchanged. The European Union has not yet adopted this standard. The management
of the Group is currently assessing the impact of the application of this standard on the Group's financial statements. 
 
·     IAS 12: Recognition of Deferred Taxes for Unrealized Losses (Amendments) 
 
The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2017. These amendments clarify the
accounting for deferred tax assets for unrealised losses on debt instruments measured at fair value. The management of the
Group is in the process of assessing the impact of this standard on the Group's financial statements. The amendments have
not yet been endorsed by the EU. 
 
·     IAS 7: Cash flow statement (Amendments) 
 
The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2017. These amendments require entities
to provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing
activities. The management of the Group is in the process of assessing the impact of this amendment on the Group's
financial statements. The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. 
 
·     IFRS 2: Classification and measurement of Shared-based Payment transactions (Amendment) 
 
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2018. The amendment clarifies the
measurement basis for cash-settled, share-based payments and the accounting for modifications that change an award from
cash-settled to equity-settled. It also introduces an exception to the principles in IFRS 2 that will require an award to
be treated as if it was wholly equity-settled, where an employer is obliged to withhold an amount for the employee's tax
obligation associated with a share-based payment and pay that amount to the tax authority. The management of the Group is
in the process of assessing the impact of this standard on the Group's financial statements. The amendments have not yet
been endorsed by the EU. 
 
·     IFRS 4 : Implementation of IFRS 9 in relation to IFRS 4 (Amendment) 
 
The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2018. The Council adopted amendments to
IFRS 4 to address the concerns arising from the application of the new financial instruments standard (IFRS 9), before the
application of the new modified by the council IFRS 4. The amendments introduce two approaches: duplication and deferral.
The amended standard will: 
 
•       give to all companies that issue insurance contracts the option to recognize in other comprehensive income, rather
than profit or loss, the volatility that could arise when IFRS 9 is applied before the new insurance contracts standard is
issued 
 
•       give to companies whose activities are predominantly connected with insurance an optional temporary exemption from
applying IFRS 9 until 2021 
 
The amendments have not yet been endorsed by the EU. The management of the Group is in the process of assessing the impact
of this standard on the Group's financial statements. 
 
3.5 NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE (CONTINUED) 
 
·     Clarifications in IFRS 15 - Revenues from contracts with customers. 
 
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2018. In April 2016, the Council has issued
clarifications to IFRS 15. The amendments to IFRS 15 do not change the basic principles of the Standard but provide
clarifications on the application of these principles. The amendments clarify the way in which a performance obligation is
recognized in a contract, how to determine whether an entity is the principal or the representative, and how to determine
whether the income from the granting of a license should be recognized in a specific time or over time. The management of
the Group is in the process of assessing the impact of this standard on the Group's financial statements 
 
The IASB has issued the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2014 - 2016 Cycle, which is a collection of amendments to IFRSs. The
amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2017. The amendments have not yet been
endorsed by the EU. The Group is in the process of assessing the impact of these amendment on the Group's financial
statements. 
 
·    IAS 28 (Amendment) - Measurement of Associates or Joint Ventures at Fair Value : The amendment clarifies  that when
venture capital organisations, mutual funds, unit trusts and similar entities elect to measure their investments in
associates or joint ventures at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), this election should be made separately for each
associate or joint venture at initial recognition. 
 
·      IFRS 12 Disclosures of Interests in Other Entities : Clarification of the scope of the standard: The amendment
clarified the scope of the standard specifying that the disclosure requirements of the standard, except those of paragraphs
B10-B16 are applicable to an entity's shareholdings, regardless of being classified as held for sale, held for distribution
or as discontinued operations according to IFRS 5 "Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations". 
 
·     IAS 40 Investment Property (Amendment) Transfer of Investment Property. 
 
The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2018.  The amendment to IAS 40 clarifies
that an entity may transfer a property to or from investment  property when, and only when there are indications of a
change in use. A change of use occurs if the property meets or no longer meets the definition of investment  property. A
change in the intentions of the management for the use of the property itself is not an indication of a change in use. The
amendment has not yet been endorsed by the European Union. The management of the Group is in the process of assessing the
impact of this standard on the Group's financial statements. 
 
·     IFRIC 22 "Foreign currency transactions and advance consideration" 
 
The interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1st 2018. IFRIC 22 clarifies the
accounting treatment for transactions that involve the receipt or payment of foreign currency advance payments. In
particular, it applies to foreign currency transactions when the entity recognizes a non-monetary asset or non-monetary
liability arising from the payment or collection of advance payments before the entity recognizes the asset, expense or
revenue. According to the interpretation, the date of the transaction for the purposes of determining the exchange rate
shall be the date of initial recognition of non-monetary prepayments of the the asset or liability from advance payments.
If there are multiple payments or receipts in advance, the transaction date is speciafied separetely for each payment or
receipt.

8.      EMISSION ALLOWANCES (CO2) 
 
According to the current European and National legislation, during the 3rd implementation phase of the EU ETS (period
2013-2020), PPC is not entitled to free allocation of emission allowances for its bound stations, with the exception of
allowances allocated for emissions corresponding to the generation of thermal power for district heating. 
 
In accordance with its verified CO2 emissions for 2015, the emission allowances that PPC for the the period January 1st
2015 to December 31st 2015 amounted to 34.3 Mt. During 2015, PPC has been allocated with about 87.2 thousand emission
allowances for district heating emissions. 
 
Similarly, in accordance with its verified CO2 emissions for 2016, the emission allowances that PPC delivered for the
period from January 1st 2016 to December 31st 2016 amounted to 28.4 Mt. During 2016, PPC has been allocated with about 62.8
thousand emission allowances for district heating emissions.

According to tax legislation, the income tax rate for legal entities residing in Greece, is 29%, while at the same time tax
prepayment stands to 100 
 
Tax returns for the companies residing in Greece are filed annually but profits or losses declared for tax purposes remain
provisional until such time, as the tax authorities audit the returns and the records of the company and a final assessment
is issued. The Group establishes a provision, if deemed necessary, on a case by case basis and per company, against an
event of additional taxes being imposed by the tax authorities. 
 
Based on the applicable Income Tax Code, since the fiscal year 2011, the certified auditors issue an "Annual Tax Compliance
Report" after conducting a tax audit at the same time with the financial audit. The tax audit is conducted on particular
tax areas, specified by an audit program, according to the provisions of the tax law. Audit matters which are not covered
by the above mentioned decision are dealt in accordance to the ISAE 3000 "Assurance Engagements other than Audits or
Reviews of Historical Financial Information". 
 
The Group's companies that are subject to the above mentioned provisions are: PPC S.A., IPTO S.A., 
 
HEDNO S.A., and PPC Renewables S.A. For the year 2015 the tax auditors of the Parent Company issued a tax certificate
"without qualification", while the corresponding tax audit for 2016 is in progress. 
 
Moreover, effective from January 2014, the appropriate tax authorities (Centre for Auditing Big Companies) have 
 
initiated a tax audit of the Parent Company's fiscal years 2009, 2010 and 2011, which is still in progress. 
 
Similarly, the Centre for Auditing Big Companies conducts a tax audit for the subsidiary IPTO S.A. for the fiscal years
2009 and 2010, while there is in progress by the tax authorities a partial tax audit for 2014 after the filling of a tax
refund request. This partial tax audit is expected to be completed soon with a tax refund amounting to Euro 18 mil.

As at 31.12.2013, the Parent Company recognized a deferred tax liability on the difference between the accounting and tax
basis of the value of its investment in the subsidiary IPTO S.A. More precisely, the value of the investment in PPC's tax
books amounts to Euro 38,444, while the respective value in the accounting books amounts to Euro 916,376. By applying on
the difference of Euro 877,932 the applicable for 2013  income tax rate of 26%, a differed tax liability of Euro 228,262
was derived. On September 30th 2015,due to the income tax rate change from 26% to 29%, the deferred tax liability was
adjusted to Euro 254,600, while the difference of Euro 26,338 was charged to the current income statement. 
 
Part of this surplus value arising in the tax books, of an amount of Euro 589,615, originates from the reserve of Law
2941/2001 relating to the spanned off Transmission segment which was transferred to IPTO S.A. in its capacity as a sole
successor. In accordance to paragraph 3, case (6), of article 98 of Law 4001/2011, all tax or accounting treatment  which
was performed by PPC relating to the segment and which relates to future benefits or liabilities, is transferred to IPTO
S.A. 
 
Consequently, upon the disposal of IPTO S.A. and the payment by the Parent Company of the respective income tax derived
from the difference between the sale consideration and the tax book value, the reserve of Law 2941/2001 (Euro 589,615) is
considered as taxed, and thus IPTO S.A. in its capacity as a sole successor of PPC S.A., is eligible to transfer this
reserve to retained earnings and thus making it available for distribution without payment of any additional income taxes.

14. TANGIBLE ASSETS (CONTINUED) 
 
Revaluation of Fixed Assets: 
 
Within 2014, the Group proceeded with the revaluation of its operating fixed assets as of December 31, 2014. The
revaluation was carried out by an independent firm of appraisers, according to IAS 16. The results of the above appraisal
which excluded lakes, land for the extraction of lignite and construction in progress, were recorded in the Company's books
on December 31, 2014. The previous revaluation took place on December 31, 2009. 
 
The revalued amounts, from the appraisers' work, compared to the Net Book Value of the fixed assets, resulted to a net
surplus for the Group, amounting to approximately Euro 672.4 mil., (Parent Company 627.5 mil.), which was credited directly
in Revaluation Surplus in Comprehensive Income (Euro 848 mil. and Euro 818.6 mil. net of Deferred Taxes for the Group and
the Parent Company, respectively). Additionally, an amount of Euro 44.8 mil.which was not offset by previous years'
Revaluation Surplus was charged in the Statement of Income for the year ended at December 31, 2014 (Parent Company : 21.7
mil.). 
 
Encumbrances on tangible assets:  Tangible assets are held free from encumbrances and any claims against the Group's
tangible assets are deemed as not substantial.
