Energy related air pollutant emissions are estimated and presented too. Energy use in Industry has shown a growing trend. Residual fuel oil was the predominant energy form, but with decreasing share, while electricity had a remarkable and steadily increasing share, reflecting changes in industrial equipment towards more automated production processes. Natural Gas started to contribute to energy mix in late ’90s. Emissions followed energy’s growth but with lower rates, since ‘dirty fuels’ use grew slower than electricity, which is a ‘clean fuel’ in final uses. Sectors with the greater contribution in energy use and air pollutant emissions were ‘Basic Metals’ and ‘Chemical’ from 1960 to 1975, while after 1985 ‘Non-metallic Minerals’ and ‘Energy’ sectors had the greater contribution. More than 50% of the countries industrial units are located close to Athens. In 2003, Attica’s share to total industry’s emissions was lower than the share of industries, while neighbouring prefectures’ share was higher. The share of ‘dirty’ industries is higher in the neighbouring to Attica prefectures, while in Attica the share of industries using mainly electricity (‘clean’ final energy form) is higher. The enlargement of natural gas penetration together with energy saving measures will affect positive any emission reduction policy. </p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>30</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>518</first_page><last_page>527</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">558</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000558</doi><timestamp>1714919202</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/558</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
