What the sockets look like
Power in Greece
Greece, located in southeastern Europe, is known for its extensive coastline and numerous islands in the Aegean and Ionian Seas. Greece uses Type C and Type F power plugs. The standard voltage is 230 V and the supply frequency is 50 Hz. Major sources of power generation include natural gas, renewables such as wind and solar, and lignite, a type of brown coal. Greece has been making significant strides in integrating renewable energy sources into its grid, reducing its reliance on fossil fuels. The overall reliability of the power grid is excellent, with few interruptions or outages reported annually.
