The Attica-Crete subsea power interconnector has been put into trial operation, marking a milestone for Greece’s transmission system. The country now has a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) interconnection, and its largest island is fully integrated into the national electricity system, according to an announcement by the Independent Power Transmission Operator (IPTO or Admie).

The Ariadne subsea power interconnector entered into operation on May 24 with the successful transfer of direct current electricity, said IPTO, whose subsidiary Ariadne implemented the project. The trial operation phase is expected to last throughout the summer, IPTO added.
