INDEPENDENT POWER TRANSMISSION OPEROrt
Beschreibung
Electricity interconnection of the islands of Lemnos, Lesvos, Chios, Samos, and Skyros to the mainland transmission grid (via Nea Santa in the area of Thrace to the north, and via Aliveri in the Evia island to the east), and to the Dodecanese islands grid (via Mastichari in the Kos island to the south). The connection will be mainly established through alternating current (AC) 150 kV cable interconnectors and 150 kV gas insulated (GIS) substations.
Ziele
The project contributes to the energy and climate policy objectives of the European Union and Greece. It is expected to eliminate the electrical isolation of the concerned islands, ensure a more efficient, reliable and clean electricity supply in comparison to the status quo (local diesel or high-fuel oil power stations), improve security of supply, increase the hosting capacity for connection of Renewable Energy Sources ("RES") in the region, contribute to the further economic development of the concerned islands, particularly via tourism.
