Well, there is one around 2km from me, though I'm not sure if it's running right this instant. I can look later, though. EDIT: It doesn't seem like the specific unit is on the list, it's called Ptolemaida 5.

Sure there are https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agios_Dimitrios_Power_Station https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agios_Dimitrios_Power_Statio... They just use terms like “thermal” and “lignite” (brown coal) to make it sound nicer.

  That one is no longer operational, IIRC.

    It got extended due to the war in Ukraine

      Ah, you are correct, thanks.

        No, thank you. You got me interested enough to practice my Greek and look it up.
