Greece’s electricity distribution network operator, DEDDHE, on Monday said power supply to the popular Saronic Gulf island of Hydra was restored in the afternoon, after a nearly 36-hour outage that also knocked out the water supply.
A pair of power generators was also shipped to the rocky island as a precaution against another blackout.
The operator also again apologized to customers on the isle for the power interruption, which came at probably one of the worst times of the year – the last weekend of the height of the summer tourism season.
