Research for the electrical interconnection between Crete and Cyprus initiated with NAVTEX

November 6, 2026

Greece has issued a NAVTEX for the research mission of the French research vessel Abeille Marengo, which will conduct investigations for the electrical interconnection between Crete and Cyprus. The operations are set to begin immediately and are expected to last until 2026. A positive response for the project's licensing is anticipated. Current estimates suggest that the favorable conditions will allow research to resume without significant Turkish intervention. Processes are proceeding smoothly.
