Energy in Cyprus
A recent scientific article published in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews in 2014 by Prof. Mete Feridun of University of Greenwich in London and his colleagues investigates the long-run equilibrium relationship among international tourism, energy consumption, and carbon dioxide emissions (CO 2), and the direction of causality among these variables.
Solar power in Cyprus
In 2011, the Cypriot target of solar power, including both photovoltaics and concentrated solar power, was a combined 7% of electricity by 2020. [4]While Cyprus saw a 16% increase in solar panel installations in a 2021 report, the country still grapples with low renewable energy usage, standing at 13.8%, compared to the EU average of 19.7% in 2019.
