Doğu Akdeniz’in Enerji Kartı: Kıbrıs

Year 2021, Volume: IV Issue: 8, 36 - 54, 30.11.2021

Abstract

1974'ten sonra iki ayrı idareye sahip olan Kıbrıs Adası için enerji kaynaklarının varlığı, her iki kesim için de gelecek planlarını değiştirecek gibi görünmektedir. İki taraf arasında yıllarca süren müzakereler ve uzlaşmaya varılamaması enerji kartıyla çözülmesi daha da zorlaşacaktır. Rum Yönetimi, bölgesindeki elektrik açığını kapatmak için 2001 yılından beri KKTC'den elektrik almaktadır. Kıbrıs adasının etrafındaki doğalgaz, özellikle 2015 yılından bu yana adanın enerji dengesini değiştirmiştir. Kıbrıs, sadece doğalgaz ve enerji sorununu çözmekle kalmayacak, aynı zamanda AB ülkelerine ve özellikle enerji transferi Kıbrıs Rum Yönetimi için önemli bir lojistik üssüdür. Bu nedenle Kıbrıs Adası, bölgedeki enerji potansiyelinin tüketici ülkelere ihracatı ve teslimi açısından Doğu Akdeniz coğrafyasında "anahtar" rol üstlenmiştir. Çalışmanın amacı, Doğu Akdeniz'deki hidrokarbon yataklarının son yıllardaki etkilerini ve Kıbrıs üzerindeki geleceğini incelemektir.

Energy Card of the Eastern Mediterranean: Cyprus

Year 2021, Volume: IV Issue: 8, 36 - 54, 30.11.2021

Abstract

The existence of energy resources for the Island of Cyprus, which had two separate administrations after 1974, seems to change the plans for both segments. Years of negotiations between the two sides and the failure to reach consensus will become even more difficult to resolve with the energy card. The Greek Cypriot Administration has been receiving electricity from the TRNC since 2001 in order to close the electricity gap in its region. The natural gas off the around island of Cyprus has especially changed the energy balance of the island since 2015. Cyprus will not only solving the natural gas and energy problem, but also an important logistics base for energy transfer to EU countries and especially for the Greek Cypriot Administration. Therefore, the Cyprus Island has assumed the "key" role in the Eastern Mediterranean geography in terms of the export and delivery of the energy potential in the region to consumer countries. The aim of the study is to examine the effects of hydrocarbon deposits in the Eastern Mediterranean in recent years and their future on Cyprus.
