The state of Greece’s power emissions

Across the 8 Greece power plants carrying an asset-level CO₂ figure in this open dataset, total emissions are about 1.6 Mt CO₂/yr. The single largest emitter, Atherinolakkos (oil), accounts for about 40% of that 8-plant reported subset (not of the whole country). The top three owners — Public Power Company of Greece, Elpedison Energy, GEK TERNA Holdings, Real Estate, Construction SA [50%]; Motor Oil Hellas SA [50% — control roughly 100% of that 8-plant reported subset. Most of these plants sit in a temperate Köppen climate zone.
