What is the energy strategy for Kosovo?
The Kosovo energy strategy includes increasing RES capacity to 35% of electricity consumption by 2031. Aiming for 600 MW wind, 600 MW solar PV, 20 MW biomass & at least 100 MW of prosumer capacity, to reach a total installed RES capacity of 1600 MW by 2031. Lignite exploitation in Kosovo started in 1922.
What is the New Kosovo power plant?
The New Kosovo power plant is part of the government's plans to reform Kosovo's energy sector. Other plans include closing Kosovo A power station by 2017, rehabilitating Kosovo B power station to meet EU standards, and privatizing the country's electricity distribution system. Plans for New Kosovo also include a lignite coal mine, the Sibovc SW.
How much will Kosovo's new solar power plant cost?
In addition, procedures are scheduled to be announced in the fourth quarter for a solar power plant of 100 MW for government-controlled power utility Kosovo Energy Corp. (KEK) and a solar thermal system for district heating in Prishtina, according to Rizvanolli. The contracts will have a combined value of EUR 180 million, she added.
How did Kosovo get its own energy system?
Kosovo was part of the Regional Energy Community and was connected with the regional system through interconnections with Serbia, North Macedonia, Montenegro and Albania. KOSTT made an agreement with ENTSO-E so Kosovo gets his own independent region of energy administration. Kosovo gets full independence and control of its energy industry.
What will the Kosovo e Re Power Plant replace?
The Kosovo e Re Power Plant will replace the current outdated units of the Kosovo A Power Plant as part of the strategy to meet the long-term security-of-supply concerns present in Kosovo and provide the country’s necessary baseload electricity.
How inherited issues have affected the energy sector in Kosovo?
The inherited issues after the war in Kosovo and the transition period have had an immense effect on the progress of this sector. Regulation of activities in energy sector in Kosovo is a responsibility of the Energy Regulatory Office (ERO).
