(GHEI), a subsidiary under China Energy Investment Corporation hosted the 3rd Corporate Open Day of the Thrace Wind Project, under the theme “Clean Energy Delivers a Better Life for All” in the Municipality of Alexandroupolis, Thrace, Greece.

After the ceremony, the youth attendees visited the Korfovouni Wind Farm to learn about the safety production of wind farms, measures for bird protection, and the cultural construction of CEERE. The visiting youth had the opportunity to immerse themselves in a day as “wind farm inspectors” to experience the daily operations of wind farms as well as the corporate ethos of “diligence, dedication, innovation and excellence” of China Energy Investment Corporation. Elenh, a Greek youth student, expressed her sincere admiration for GHEI’s endeavors to promote renewable energy development in Greece and hoped for wider adoption of green development principles, envisioning a cleaner and greener future for the beautiful planet.

Currently, the event has successfully concluded its Beijing session and Greece Session.
