A European union directive by which a set percentage of energy used by member state residents must be derived from an interconnected source, means Cyprus must press ahead with the Great Sea Interconnection (GSI) and tie up the project’s loose ends, Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Keve) general secretary Marios Tsakkis said on Wednesday.
The ultimate linking up of the Greece-Cyprus electric systems to Israel is also an imperative for the enterprise to “make sense” Tsakkis said.
