The Electricity Authority of Cyprus will be obtaining electricity from
the Turkish occupied areas of Cyprus, after a request submitted by
President of the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry Manthos
Mavrommatis to the Turkish Cypriot electricity company, which was
accepted and is covered by the Green Line Regulation.
Government Spokesman Stephanos Stephanou announced on Saturday that the
request was submitted ``with the approval of the Government of the
Republic of Cyprus, after legal advice from the Law Office.``
He noted that this arrangement enhances the EAC effort to meet demands
in electricity, helps the economy run smoothly and serves the
households, adding that furthermore the EAC will be able to carry out
maintenance works on existing power producing units.
Stephanou said efforts to strengthen Cyprus` power producing capacity
were continuing.
