Due to a malfunction at the Teknecik Power Plant on Sunday, alternating power cuts were made across the country.

Once the malfunctioning power plants were put into action, electricity was supplied to all regions.

Problems were experienced at the Teknecik Power Plant on Sunday leading to alternating power cuts across the country.

The head of the Cyprus Turkish Electricity Authority Kıb-Tek Hüseyin Paşa told the BRT that a 40-megawatt section of the Teknecik Power Plant was out of order, so alternating blackouts were inevitable.

Noting that the malfunction could not be overcome due to the scorching temperatures in the region, Paşa stated that they were only able to intervene after cooling efforts were realized.
