“At OTP BANK, we are committed to ensuring that our clients have access to high-quality technologies and convenient financial instruments that support a rapid transition to alternative energy sources. Together with our partner, we are shaping a comprehensive approach under which companies can receive professional support at every stage of implementing an energy initiative,” emphasised Iryna Kabantseva, Head of Projects and Programmes for Alternative Sales Channels at OTP BANK.
