The Electricity Authority of Cyprus (EAC) has announced that a large-scale smart meter installation programme is continuing across all districts throughout March as part of a broader effort to modernise the island’s electricity network.
Work is being carried out simultaneously in Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaca, Famagusta and Paphos, with teams replacing existing meters in specific neighbourhoods and road corridors.
In Nicosia, installations are under way in Agios Dometios and the Horse Racing area, on both sides of Dimokratias Avenue between Grigori Afxentiou, Vasileos Pavlou, Argyrokastrou, Agios Pavlos and Parthenon streets, up to the Green Line.
In Limassol, work is focused on the Katholiki area north of the Municipal Hall, covering an extensive network of streets in the city’s historic and administrative centre.
In Larnaca, the programme covers areas on both sides of Archbishop Makarios III Avenue from Grigori Afxentiou to the Harbour roundabout, as well as zones between Tassos Papadopoulos, Spyros Kyprianou and Agion Anargyron avenues.
In the Famagusta district, installations are concentrated in Ayia Napa town centre, on both sides of Teukrou Anthia and Kataspylon streets.
In Paphos, meter replacements are taking place in the Agios Pavlos area across a wide network of streets in the urban centre.
The EAC notes that each replacement requires a temporary power cut of no more than 20 minutes and has apologised for any inconvenience caused.
