Greece’s lower coal usage has caused their annual CO₂ emissions from coal to drop by nearly 90% from their peak in 2004. [Source](https://ourworldindata.org/explorers/co2?Gas+or+Warming=CO%E2%82%82&Accounting=Territorial&Fuel+or+Land+Use+Change=Coal&Count=Per+country&country=~GRC)

And their annual CO₂ emissions from fossil fuels and industry in general has dropped by over 50% since 2007.

And a couple of years ago the price per KWh was up to 1euro. Most of it was paid by the government. At some point 1billion per month to the electricity producers. Some wind companies had a cost of 6c/KW and because the spot price for the last KWh was at 1euro, everyone was getting 1euro/KWh.

I am not saying solar and wind are bad, but they didn’t do it for the environment.

Greece geographically does seem ideal for wind and solar

First it was around 50% coal + 15 wind = 75.

now its 43% wind + 6% coal.

where is the other half?

Really good work by greece!!

Following most of the world in getting rid of coal and it’s great to see.
