Jean-Paul Smets, CEO Nexedi, stated, "We have been strong advocates of OCP for several years now and we are delighted to begin working with a new member of the community. Hydro66 are a perfect partner for us as they reflect our core values of delivering environmentally friendly solutions at a fraction of the "Big 5" market price.
