New electricity supply hours for thermal accumulators

Thermal Energy Storage - Code 56

Electricity Authority Cyprus is continuously making every effort to upgrade its services, best serve its customers as well as to optimize the operation of its System with the main objective of saving energy and making more efficient use of its existing equipment and facilities.

After studying the fluctuation of electricity demand, EAC decided to differentiate the hours of electricity supply to the thermal accumulators during the period November 1st, 2019 – January 15th, 2020 operating on the basis of thermal energy storage pricing, code 56. It should be noted that, during the above period, some improvements may be made to the thermal accumulator supply program.

Care has been taken in the design of the study for both 10-hour thermal accumulators and 7-hour thermal accumulators.

Supply hours for the load group I (A02-13, Potteries / Bakeries) will remain those that apply today, throughout the year.
