On 22 December 2025, IPTO proceeded with a re‑launched tender for the submarine electrical cables linking Corinth with Kos, specifying a 1,290 km bidirectional HVDC cable system with 1,000 MW transmission capacity and a cable‑section budget of €1.35 billion. The tender, part of the wider Dodecanese interconnection and with bids due by 30 January 2026, aims to integrate the Dodecanese islands into the mainland transmission system and is prepared in parallel with EIB financing and grant applications for the project.
