Alexandroupolis energy infrastructure development
Overview
The Alexandroupolis Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (FSRU) project, managed by Gastrade, has gained international recognition as a finalist in the REGIOSTARS 2026 awards under the ‘A Connected Europe’ category. The project, co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund, is designed to serve as a strategic entry point for liquefied natural gas (LNG) intended for Southeast and Central Europe.
Greek Minister of Environment and Energy Stavros Papastavrou has further emphasized the region's transformation into a vital energy gateway. By integrating the FSRU with new power generation units, existing pipelines, and the Vertical Corridor, the infrastructure facilitates an energy route from South to North. The expansion of the Vertical Corridor toward Serbia and North Macedonia is expected to support energy flows to Hungary and Slovakia. This development marks a transition for the Evros region from a border zone to a central hub within the European energy architecture.
