Electricity Authority of Cyprus (EAC): Workers Warn of Escalating Measures, Refer to 'Blackout' Scenario (VIDEO)

Workers at the Electricity Authority of Cyprus (EAC) held a three-hour work stoppage, expressing strong dissatisfaction with the lack of strategic planning and the government's indifference to the problems in the energy sector. They warn of the possibility of a 'blackout,' as happened in Spain, due to the increased penetration of renewable energy sources and the inadequate preparedness of the grid. They criticize Cyta's involvement in the energy sector, considering it speculative and without substantial benefit for supply security. They demand immediate measures and responses from the government, threatening to escalate their actions.
