The Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator (DEDDIE) has announced planned power outages affecting several areas of Crete on Sunday, June 14. These scheduled interruptions are typically carried out for maintenance or infrastructure work on the electrical grid. Tourists staying in or traveling through affected zones may experience temporary loss of electricity, which could impact air conditioning, phone charging, and internet access. If you are in a hotel or rental property, check with your host or accommodation staff about which areas are affected and expected duration. Carrying a portable charger and downloading offline maps before the outage is advisable. Restaurants and shops in affected areas may have limited services during the interruption. Local authorities and DEDDIE typically restore power within a few hours of the scheduled window.
