On July 21, 2026, a technical fault at the Dhekelia power station in Cyprus resulted in power cuts across various regions of the island. The issue occurred at 6:50 a.m. and led to the loss of a production unit, specifically the AT/S 4 unit which had a capacity of 51 megawatts. The Cyprus Transmission System Operator (TSO) reported that the fault triggered the need to reduce power supply, impacting electricity availability in several areas.

Following the initial breakdown, efforts were reportedly made to restore electricity as soon as possible. Although the turbine at Dhekelia was repaired and brought back online after the first malfunction, it experienced a secondary failure later in the day. However, this second breakdown did not affect the grid or result in further outages. The TSO continues to monitor the situation and address the issues as they arise.
