Back to newsPlanned power outages are affecting several areas across Crete today, Saturday June 27, due to scheduled maintenance and network upgrade works carried out by DEDDIE, the Greek electricity distribution operator. These are planned interruptions, not emergency failures, as part of ongoing infrastructure improvements to the island's power grid.
If you are staying in a villa, apartment, or hotel in affected areas, you may experience temporary loss of electricity for several hours. It is advisable to charge devices in advance, keep water reserves if your accommodation relies on an electric pump, and avoid using elevators in older buildings during the outage window. Restaurants and shops may also be temporarily closed or operating with limited service. Check with your accommodation host for the specific timing affecting your area, as outages are typically scheduled during daytime hours.
