Highlights

  • The liberalisation of the market and the promotion of natural gas and renewables are the main priorities of the energy policy.
  • EAC owns the largest generation capacity and has a monopoly on distribution. Its privatisation is underway and will help attract alternative suppliers.
  • The power mix is dominated by oil-fired power plants.
  • Electricity prices are highly influenced by international oil prices.
  • Energy consumption has been recovering since 2013, after a sharp decrease from 2008 to 2013 due to the financial crisis.
  • Cyprus is positioning itself as a gas export hub.
  • The construction of the first LNG import terminal has been launched.

Abstract

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Republic of Cyprus represents 70% of the island of Cyprus (the northern part is the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC)).

    The Ministry of Energy, Trade, and Industry is responsible for drawing up and implementing the national energy policy through its Energy Service division.

  • Energy Companies

    Gas:

    The Natural Gas Public Company (DEFA, or CYGAS) was created in 2007 to manage the import, storage, distribution, transmission, supply and trading of natural gas, and the management of the distribution and supply system of Natural Gas. A decree in 2008 designated DEFA as the sole importer and distributor of natural gas in Cyprus. The company has also been designated as the LNG operator.

  • Energy Supply

    Oil:

    Since the closure of the Larnaca oil refinery in 2004 Cyprus has imported all its oil products. The refinery was transformed into an import terminal and a storage centre. Around half of oil product imports are used to produce electricity and about a third goes to the transport sector (2019).

  • Energy Prices

    Oil:

    In 2020, the average annual price of motor gasoline was €1.08/l, and diesel was €1.12/l. Fuel prices follow global trends and have fallen by an average of 8%/year since 2018. They are lower than the EU average (-17% for gasoline and -8.5% for diesel in 2019).

  • Energy Consumption

    In 2019, Cyprus had a per capita consumption of 1.9 toe, that is still 21% below its peak level of 2.4 toe in 2008 and 38% below the EU average. Electricity consumption per capita was around 4 000 kWh in 2019 (8% below its 2008 level and 29% below the EU average).

  • Issues & Prospects

    Cyprus has recovered since 2015 from the deep recession which struck the country between 2008 and 2014.
