The Hellenic Cables Greek Island Interconnection Will Link Seven Islands
This project forms part of theย fourth and final phase of the Cyclades interconnectionย program. It will connectย Milosย andย Serifosย to theย continental Electricity Transmission Systemย and indirectly improve power supply toย Folegandros, Ios, Kimolos, Sifnos, and Kythnos.
Once operational, the interconnection will significantly enhance power quality and reliability. In addition, it will enable the gradualย retirement of aging and polluting power plants, advancing Greeceโs clean energy objectives.
Local Production and Sustainable Manufacturing at Corinth Plant
