Regulatory Other

In March 2025, the Green Aegean Interconnector reached a key regulatory milestone in Greece when it was included in the Independent Power Transmission Operator’s (IPTO) Preliminary Ten-Year Development Plan for 2025–2034. The article reporting this on 7 March 2025 notes that the mega-project, which aims to transmit surplus wind energy from the Aegean to Central Europe, has been incorporated into IPTO’s national transmission development planning framework. This inclusion signals formal recognition of the interconnector within Greece’s long-term network planning, providing an official basis for further technical and regulatory work on the project. The same report adds that the project has also been mapped by ENTSO-E among Europe’s key electricity transmission projects for the coming decade, underscoring its strategic significance at both national and European levels.
