Nicosia, Cyprus. The association of Cyprus Tourist Enterprises (Stek) said power cuts were unacceptable and inconsistent with Cyprus’ profile as a modern European tourist destination.
Impact on hotels
Stek said recent power cuts inevitably affected hotel units, causing operational problems and negatively impacting the experience of tourists visiting the island.
The association described the situation as unacceptable for a tourist destination seeking to strengthen its international competitiveness.
Rolling outages
The comments followed 30-minute rolling power cuts across Cyprus on Wednesday night.
The outages were caused by electricity demand exceeding supply during extreme heat.
