Electricity in Cyprus is managed by the Electricity Authority of Cyprus. Power is primarily generated at three fuel oil-burning stations but the use of distributed renewable energy is expanding. About 97% of the primary energy use was imported in 2008.
AKEL MP Costas Costa characterised Cyprus as “the only country in the world where thousands of megawatt-hours go unused due to lack of centralised green energy storage systems,” adding: “During the day we waste megawatt-hours because we lack storage, and at night we are one step away from blackouts.”
In 2023, Cyprus had a consumption per capita of 1.8 toe, i.e., 36% below the EU average. Electricity consumption per capita was 3 900 kWh in 2023, 27% below the EU average. Total energy consumption has remained stable since 2021 (2.2Mtoe).
The Cyprus Energy Regulatory Authority (CERA) representatives reported establishing a regulatory framework for energy storage in 2019, followed by market rules approval in 2021. The Cyprus Transmission System Operator has received 13 storage applications totaling 224 megawatts capacity, with eight applications processed and five under review.
