Cyprus Natural Gas to Fuel Europe by 2028 Amid Energy Crisis
Cyprus' energy minister says that the country's natural gas will supply Europe by March 2028, meeting the EU's need for new sources of energy. Minister Michael Damianos made this statement in an interview with The Associated Press on August 7, 2026.
The announcement comes as European consumers face a shortage of natural gas due to various factors, including Russia's reduction of exports to the continent.
Damianos stated that Cyprus' natural gas will be available for Europe by March 2028. This timeline aligns with the EU's goal of finding alternative sources of energy to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and mitigate climate change.
