Greece. In Greece there is only one PSAP for 112 voice calls that uses 20 terminal stations, which are manned depending on the workload of calls. The terminal stations are computers directly connected to the telephone network. The computers include headsets for the call operators and special keyboards that facilitate and accelerate the use of the call management application. The Hellenic Telecommunication Organization SA (OTE SA) is responsible for the technical support of the hardware and the software of the call centre. In addition there is a central terminal that supervises the operation of the computers and the total workload of the call centre. The management application of the call centre is connected to a geographic database that is maintained by a contractor company. This database allows the routing of calls to the suitable service/agency, depending on their origin. The information system that currently supports the PSAP is called ADMOSS (Advanced Multifunctional Operator Service System) and is provided by SIEMENS.
Greece. In Greece there is only one PSAP for 112-calls, operated by the General Secretariat of Civil Protection (GSCP). The ‘112’ PSAP operator manually dispatches the emergency calls to the fire brigade, police etc. according to the specific requirements of each case. Greece does not have an MNO directly involved in the national consortium. Additionally, there is no MNO that officially supports the eCall flag functionality. There are discussions with all MNOs, requesting the implementation of the eCall flag before the pilot tests start and their official response is expected. One of the MNOs has declared the availability of prototype software that supports the eCall flag and their willingness to make it available for the pilot tests.
Greece. Non-EU citizens applying for a residence permit for the first time shall have to enclose a medical certificate to their application, together with relevant documentation. Those who don't hold any, shall undergo a medical screening before the permit is granted. • Refusal to grant the residence permit, or expulsion from the country are considered justified in the event of infectious diseases or epidemic outbreaks – as communicated by the World Health Organization – in order to safeguard public health. • Health care services provided to illegal, non-EU citizens suffering from tuberculosis, HIV, or other contagious diseases, are free of charge if their countries are not able to provide such services. During the treatment period a temporary residence and work permit shall be issued. • Illegal, non-EU nationals hosted at reception centres shall undergo a health screening, to be carried out by a special medical team from the Health Ministry Disease Prevention Centre, which includes: - General medical consultation; - Mantoux test; - Lung x-rays; - Any other test that may be deemed necessary for the protection of public health. • If any emergency treatment is needed, illegal, non-EU citizens are entitled to receive those health care services that are necessary to ensure their recovery, or stable health conditions. • Health care facilities do report illegal immigrants to Police authorities.

Greece. Greece is the third largest producer of olive oil in the EU (after Spain and Italy). As a result, agroindustrial biomass residues from the olive oil production process represent a significant potential of renewable energy sources. The major solid biofuel coming from olive oil processing in Greece is the so called “pirinoksilo” (literally “kernel wood”) which is a mixture of olive stones and exhausted olive pomace. Around 60% of this fuel is self-consumed by the pomace xxxxx that produce it in order to dry the incoming olive cake and to produce steam required for the pomace oil extraction process. The rest is used by the domestic and industrial sectors. Separation of olive stones from the olive pomace is only performed by a limited number of companies, usually xxxxx xxxxx. Xxxxx xxxxx that separate the stones may find it more difficult to find pomace xxxxx willing to take the remaining pomace residue. Moreover, olive stones are not as well-known as a fuel and consumers do not often realize the improvement in fuel properties compared to “pirinoksilo”.
Greece. The nut production is rising in Greece, which increases the availability of their shells. In this way, Greece produced in 2016 around 10% of the European production of almonds and walnuts and 50% of pistachios and thus the use of shells could if well driven, be an opportunity for new solid biofuel stream, being among the main commercialized solid biofuels in Greece. • Nut shells are probably the most important of such residues for the domestic sector. From these, almond shells are the most prevalent. The production of almonds in Greece amounted near 29,450t in 201616. Of these, almost the whole quantity was processed in crushing plants, where almond shells are produced as a by-product. The shell is between 55–70% by weight of the whole nut, which means that almond shell production in Greece is in the range of 16,198- 20,615 t. In addition, the nutshells price is low (65-120 €/t) and they do not present issues (e.g. odours) compared to other important solid biofuels such as exhausted olive cake. Therefore, its use might be encouraged. 16 FAOSTAT (Website consulted on 2nd May 2018). • Walnuts were also produced in significant quantities (22,571 t in 201616). The shell is around 55% of the nut. However, walnuts are mostly processed manually and there is minimal centralized production of walnut shells. It is expected that walnut shells are either disposed or used in stoves and fireplaces. The main constraint is that as explained, the producers limit the shells volume in the market because of the self-consumption, providing a low interest to upgrade this renewable resource and being important for a local use.
