Dataset of inhalable particulate matter concentrations in the region of West Macedonia, Greece for an 11-year period()

This manuscript presents the concentrations of inhalable suspended particles with diameter less than 10 µm (PM10) in the region of west Macedonia, Greece, from a total of nine locations, from 2010 to 2020. This region, the only landlocked region in the country, has acted as the pillar of electricity production in Greece since 1960, utilizing lignite in thermal power stations, which was open mined in the locality. However, following Greece's international commitments for climate action, the region has entered a transition, post-lignite process. Particulate matter concentrations in the region are monitored by the Public Power Corporation (PPC), which operates the mines and thermal power stations, using Grimm Aerosol Technik analyzer, model EDM180.
