The T/C "energy committee of the Chamber of Electrical Engineers (EMO)" warns of the risk of long power cuts, calling on the "government" to immediately address the energy crisis in the occupied territories.

If the necessary measures are not taken, in the occupied there may be prolonged power cuts after 1.5 months, it says.

As the T/C chamber said in a statement, at present in the occupied there is the capacity to produce 329 MW per day. In the winter period, the demand in the occupied exceeded 374 MW. This is a development that could be repeated during the summer period.

The "energy committee of the Chamber of Electrical Engineers" warns that the problem of a 50 MW shortage in the occupied territories is compounded by the lack of maintenance of vital production units and machinery.

Based on the above, the T/C Chamber proposes the immediate maintenance of all infrastructure, the operation of mobile power plants in the occupied territories and the continued purchase of electricity from the Cyprus Electricity Authority.
