Greece bets on LNG corridor to power Europe’s post-Russia energy future | Euronews
3 weeks ago - As Russia’s energy squeeze has left many pipelines running through Europe underused, liquefied natural gas (LNG) is emerging as the key alternative to meet European demand. In this market, Greece is seeking to secure a substantial share, leveraging its geographical location and its existing — and expanding — infrastructure. Central to this strategy is the so-called Vertical Corridor, the pipeline network linking the country’s two LNG terminals — the FSRU (Floating Storage and Regasification Unit) in Alexandroupolis and the LNG terminal in Revithoussa — with the interconnected gas systems of Bulgaria and Romania, allowing volumes to be transported as far as Ukraine.
