Crete to face planned power outages Tuesday for grid maintenance

Monday, 27 April 2026/SourceGoogle News/1 min read
Planned power outages are scheduled across several areas of Crete on Tuesday, April 28, carried out by HEDNO (the Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator) for maintenance work on the electrical grid. The interruptions are temporary and organized in advance, meaning they are not the result of an emergency or damage. Tourists staying in affected areas may experience outages during the day, so it is advisable to charge devices in advance, carry cash in case card terminals are unavailable, and check with your accommodation for the expected duration and timing. Specific villages and districts are listed on the HEDNO website. Hotels and larger establishments typically have backup generators, but smaller rentals and local shops may be affected. Plan outdoor activities accordingly and keep a power bank handy.
