12th Cyprus Energy Symposium to Stress Energy Connectivity

Once again, our Institute, in co-operation with its partner in Cyprus, Mr. Iosif Iosif and FMW Financial Media Way, organizes the annual landmark event for the energy sector of Cyprus and the Eastern Mediterranean in general. The 12th Cyprus Energy Symposium will take place on Friday, 15 November 2024, at the Royal Hall, in Nicosia, and details concerning the Symposium programme and registration can be found via the following link: www.cyprusenergysymposium.com

This year’s symposium will cover on regulatory and energy issues, hydrocarbon exploration and production, the structure and operation of the European and domestic electricity market, the electricity interconnection of Greece, Cyprus and Israel, the introduction of natural gas into the Cyprus energy system, the further development of RES and the Government’s plans for improving energy efficiency in buildings, businesses and industry. Also, the annual Symposium will examine the fast changing geopolitical environment in the region and the implications for energy supply and fuel prices.

Energy connectivity, especially electricity and gas, will come into sharp focus in this one day high level event. As plans by the EU and the government of Cyprus are currently unfolding for the electricity interconnection between Cyprus and Crete and Cyprus with Israel, in a major effort to put an end to the island’s energy isolation, there are high expectations on energy market transformation and compliance with European norms. Also, the anticipated change of role of Cyprus from a net importer to a net energy exporter, on account of increased renewables capacity and low cost gas, will be hotly debated.

The President of the Republic of Cyprus, H.E. Mr. Nikos Anastasiadis will be the keynote speaker at the Symposium, followed by speeches and addresses by the President of the Parliament of Cyprus Ms. Annita Demetriou, the Minister of Energy, Commerce and Industry of Cyprus, Mr. George Papanastasiou,  Greece’s Minister of Environment & Energy, Mr. Theodore Skylakakis, Mr. Manos Manousakis, Chairman and CEO of the Independent Power Transmission Operator (IPTO) of Greece, the President of Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCCI), Mr. Stavrou Stavrou a.o.

The 12th Cyprus Energy Symposium is sponsored by several prominent companies active in Cyprus’ energy sector and will be represented by high-ranking executives.
