Fire protection for critical energy infrastructure

Greek ministers and energy authorities have signed a cooperation agreement to enhance fire protection around critical energy infrastructure. The initiative involves creating firebreak zones along electricity transmission lines in forested areas to prevent wildfires from threatening the power grid. The Climate Crisis and Civil Protection Ministry will identify priority areas annually, while the Independent Power Transmission Operator (ADMIE) will handle the implementation, including clearing vegetation and constructing firebreaks. Initial work has already begun in specific regions, with the project funded entirely by ADMIE and potentially renewable.
