Decision on Great Sea Interconnector Linking Greece, Cyprus, and Israel Expected Next Month

The future of the Great Sea Interconnector, an undersea electricity cable linking Greece, Cyprus, and Israel, will be decided next month. Cyprus’ Energy Minister, George Papanastasiou, announced that a ruling on whether Cypriot consumers will cover the construction costs is expected in August. The 1.9-billion-euro project, partly financed by the EU, aims to reduce energy isolation and lower prices through increased renewable energy.
