Country Abbreviations

GRC is the three-letter country code of Greece, and GR is the two-letter country code of Greece. The two-letter suffix is used in top-level domains on the Internet as .gr.

Natural resources

Greece is not poor in natural resources, but the deposits are mostly small. The energy raw materials oil, natural gas and hard coal, which are so important for the development of the country, are largely missing (earthquake hazard prohibits the installation of nuclear power plants). Important mineral resources are bauxite, pumice and a number of minerals used in industry such as magnesite, perlite, bentonite, emery and pozzolans, as well as marble. Salt is extracted from the sea. The lignite deposits near Kosani, Euboea and Megalopolis play a role for the domestic energy industry. The oil obtained from the island of Thasos only covers a very small part of the Greek needs. The oil and gas reserves in the northeastern Aegean are estimated at 10 million barrels and 991 million m ^3, respectivelyestimated. However, some of them are also claimed by Turkey.

Energy industry

A total of 52.1 TWh of electricity was generated in 2016, 70% of which from fossil fuels, 16% in hydropower plants, 10% from solar and wind energy and 4% from other energy sources. Solar energy plays a role especially for domestic hot water preparation.

Industry

Even if the industry has experienced a surge in modernization in recent years, low capital resources, below-average productivity, small company sizes, often inadequate qualifications of employees with a high proportion of unskilled and semi-skilled workers, a lack of vertical and horizontal interdependencies and an unbalanced industry structure are characteristics of the secondary Sector. The most important branches of industry are the pharmaceutical industry, textile and clothing industry, food and beverage industry, chemical industry as well as wood and metal processing. The most important industrial locations are the agglomerations of Athens and Thessaloniki as well as Volos and Patras. In order to decentralize industrial development, industrial parks have been set up in many regions.

Transportation

The Greek merchant fleet with (2017) 1 420 ships with 41.4 million GT is one of the largest in the world. The most important ports are Piraeus and Eleusis, both belonging to the Athens agglomeration. Thessaloniki and Patras follow at a distance. The most important ferry ports in international passenger traffic are Patras and Igumenitsa, Kerkyra and Piraeus. With the war in the former Yugoslavia, ferry traffic across the Adriatic increased sharply. The most important airport is the new Eleftherios Venizelos airport in Spata near Athens (opened in 2001); other international airports are Thessaloniki, Heraklion, Rhodes, Kerkyra, Kos, Chania, Thira (Santorini) and Kavala. The very well developed domestic air traffic is largely in the hands of the company Aegean Airlines with its subsidiary Olympic Air. The Greek rail network, which is mostly in need of renovation, has three different track widths. The main route runs from Athens via Thessaloniki to Istanbul with branches in Thessaloniki to Belgrade, at Serres to Sofia and at Alexandrupolis to Plovdiv. The narrow-gauge railway, which departs from Athens, circles the Peloponnese. Of the overall well-developed road network, around 1,100 km are designated as autobahns. An east-west highway crossing the Pindos (“Egnatia Odos”) was completed in 2009; the expansion of the expressway (E 90) from Thessaloniki to the Turkish border was also completed in 2009. A suspension bridge connects the Peloponnese with the mainland near Patras. The bus network is important for the development of remote areas.
