REGULATORY REFERENCES

Referencia normativa: Greece

Regulatory framework of Greece · Directive (EU) 2024/3019: reported-capacity band 10,000 to 149,999 p.e.; obligations are set by agglomeration load, not by the capacity of this plant. Individual applicability is not determined in this profile.

SCENARIO

Reference energy scenario for this load estimate · simulator engine

1,773,131reference kWh per year for this load
38.5kWh per h-e (average load) per year
265,970€ per year at 0.15 €/kWh
58 %share of energy used for aeration

what this estimate is · Inputs: 46,000 p.e. of reported load; equivalent average load 46,002 p.e. with the reference profile of Greece (hypothesis with reported load and reference profile; not a measurement). Open this scenario in the simulator · how it is calculated and what it is not.

Reference scenario computed on the server from the reported load and the country profile; an estimate, not a measurement. The simulator recomputes it when opened.

QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions about this plant

What capacity does WWTP DRAMA report?

Reported size: 60,000 h-e design capacity. Received load: 46,000 h-e. Units are retained without conversion.

What treatment is reported?

Treatment PST. Nitrogen, phosphorus and UV are shown only when explicitly reported.

How much energy would a reference plant use with the load of DRAMA?

Aguas SB simulator reference scenario for 46,000 p.e. of reported load: 1,773,131 kWh per year (38.5 kWh per p.e. of average load), with aeration as 58 % of consumption. Estimate with the country reference profile; not a measurement of the plant.
