Summary

Greece's electricity distribution network operator DEDDIE has scheduled a series of planned power cuts across the Chania region between February 1 and 7, 2026, to carry out maintenance work on the grid. Villages in Apokoronas — including Nipos, Plaka, Vrisses and Neos Chorio — are among those affected, alongside parts of Chania city and areas near Akrotiri such as Sterna, Loutraki and Marathi. Outages will last between two and six hours depending on the area, and power may be restored earlier if work is completed ahead of schedule.

Planned power cuts across the Chania region: February 1–7, 2026
