New Materials research report from BRICdata is now available from Fast Market Research

Boston, MA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 09/11/2012 --Greece possesses very limited indigenous energy resources, and coal is the most significant type of energy source in the country. The number of lignite reserves in Greece totalled XX million tons in 2009. The Greek coal production totalled XX million tons in 2011, while coal consumption stood at XX million tons in 2011. The main coal deposits in the country are located in Northern Greece at Ptolemais-Amynteon, Florina, Drama and Elassona, as well as at Megalopolis in Southern Greece.

Although the Greek government is aiming to increase the contribution of renewable energy resources to power production in the future, this will not have any substantial impact on the production of coal for at least the duration of the forecast period. The country does not have any hard coal reserves and, as such, it imports hard coal from Russia, South Africa, Colombia and Venezuela.
