Scheduled power cuts hit Crete Thursday as DEDDIE conducts maintenance

Thursday, 9 July 2026/SourceGoogle News/1 min read
The Greek electricity distribution operator DEDDIE has scheduled planned power outages across several areas of Crete on Thursday, July 9. These are maintenance-related interruptions, not emergency failures. Affected zones have not been specified in detail, but outages may impact accommodation, restaurants, shops, and ATMs in those areas. Tourists are advised to charge devices in advance, carry cash in case card terminals go offline, and check with their hotel or accommodation provider about backup power availability. Air conditioning and refrigeration may be temporarily unavailable in affected properties. Outages are typically scheduled during daytime hours and are restored by end of day. If you are in a rural or inland area, disruptions may last longer than in main tourist centers like Heraklion or Chania.
