The EP holding (EPH) is one of Europe’s largest investors in climate-damaging energy, primarily in fossil fuels, but also in wood-fired power plants in Germany, the UK, the Czech Republic, France and Italy. In addition, EPH’s German subsidiary LEAG has already purchased ten pellet plants in Germany and Sweden, making them one of the largest pellet producers in Europe, with a capacity of over one million pellets per year.
