Power Cuts in Cyprus due to Increased Demand

July 22, 2026

Since Wednesday afternoon, power cuts have begun in Cyprus due to increased demand. The production of electricity has been unable to meet the needs, with demand reaching historic levels. High temperatures have contributed to this situation, raising concerns about the system's adequacy. The cuts are rotational and last up to 30 minutes, according to predetermined groups. If conditions remain the same, it is likely that cuts will continue in the coming days.
