“The Tax Registration Certificate issued by Romania’s tax authority ANAF on September 24, 2015, available for 30 days, shows that CE Oltenia has zero payment obligations and/or sums to reimburse on 31.08.2015,” the company said.
According to ANAF, the authority started Tuesday the foreclosure procedure on CE Oltenia to recover debts worth RON24.8 million to the state budget.
CE Oltenia energy holding was set up in 2012, following the merger of several thermal power plants and coalmines.
The holding has some 15,400 employees and operates 13 separate power units with a total installed capacity of 3,900 megawatts, covering up to 30% of Romania’s annual electricity production.
The company reported sales worth RON2.6 billion sales in 2014, and estimates 7.6% higher sales this year, at RON2.8 billion.
CE Oltenia general manager Laurentiu Ciurel was indicted alongside Prime Minister Victor Ponta and social democrat senator Dan Sova in connection with the defrauding of state energy companies Turceni and Rovinari back in 2007 and 2008.
