What is the largest electricity transmission project in Greece?
Ariadne Interconnection, a subsidiary of Greek transmission system operator (TSO) Independent Power Transmission Operator (IPTO or ADMIE), has completed what it says is the largest electricity transmission project in Greece, with a budget exceeding €1.1 billion.
When will a new grid line connect Greece to Crete?
Greece’s Independent Power Transmission Operator (IPTO) has revealed that a new grid line linking mainland Greece to Crete began operating on May 24.
Did Greece test the Damasta high-voltage substation to Crete's power grid?
Greece has successfully tested the connection of the Damasta high-voltage substation to Crete’s power grid, marking a key milestone in the Crete-Attica interconnection project. The test was conducted by Ariadne Interconnection, a subsidiary of the Independent Power Transmission Operator (ADMIE), which is overseeing the project.
Will a 1 GW direct current line connect Greece to Crete?
A 1 GW direct current (DC) transmission line linking mainland Greece to Crete has entered trial operation, with full commercial service expected by September to support new green power capacity and future interconnections with Cyprus, Israel and Egypt.
How did the Ariadne interconnection connect Crete to mainland Greece?
That project connected Crete to mainland Greece via a line with 2×200 megavolt-amperes (MVA) transport capacity. The Ariadne Interconnection marks Greece’s first high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cable system.
Does Crete have a power grid?
Integrating Crete into Greece’s mainland electricity grid will free about 2.5 GW of new renewable power capacity. Crete will also phase out high-cost fossil fuel units, such as diesel stations, currently used to ensure power adequacy and compensated by electricity consumers through their bills.
