Greek infrastructure in numbers
Greek infrastructure projects pipeline
- The infrastructure pipeline is concentrated (63%) on electricity interconnection and generation and urban rail. € 10.6bn of the budget refers to Energy projects, while € 7.4bn to Railways and € 4.3bn to Motorways. Tourist infrastructure and Waste management projects account for a small part of the remaining budget taking up only about € 1.3bn and € 0.9bn respectively
The current project portfolio is heavy on energy and transport but short on connectivity, tourism and the environment
A unified project planning would:
- Reduce delays
- Facilitate funding and control
There should be a single state organisation mandated with the planning, design and management of all major infrastructure projects (e.g.> € 20mn)
