Green tourism and agri-food in Greece eligible for €1 trillion EU investment

The European Commission is likely to revise upwards its winter forecasts for the Greek economy, EU Commissioner Paolo Gentiloni said on Friday, ANA reports.

The EU Commissioner for Economy presented the Commission’s European Green Deal, an investment-growth plan expected to mobilize more than 1.0 trillion euros in European, national and private capital in the next decade. He revealed the road map of a European Union that is transforming based on green growth, a course in which Greece could emerge as a “green champion”. 

Greece, he pointed out, has significant comparative advantages, such as a geographical position, climate, renewable energy sources, green tourism, and the agri-food sector. “It is important to seize the opportunity,” Gentiloni said. He added that a so-called Fair Transition Mechanism will help Greece in its efforts to remove dependence on lignite.
