July 15, 2026
RAEK and the Ministry of Energy are responding to the potential electricity shortage after 2030 by activating Article 34 for additional energy production using conventional fuels. They warn that without natural gas, Cyprus may face serious issues. Article 34 allows for the installation of new electricity generation units in urgent energy shortage cases. The location of these installations is critical and responsible authorities are assessing the suitability of various areas. The process is expected to advance quickly if necessary.
