What is a photovoltaic system in Kosovo?

The project is an important milestone for the transition of the energy supply in the Western Balkan countries towards a sustainable electricity supply. This is the first large-scale photovoltaic system in Kosovo that can increase the installed capacity of photovoltaic energy from the current 10.1 MW (2022) to up to 110.1 MW.

Where is a photovoltaic system being built?

A photovoltaic system is being built on the areas where ash from the two coal-fired power plants at Kosovo A was previously deposited. It will have an installed capacity of up to 100 MW and produce 152 GWh of electricity annually. The plant will be erected on the partly rehabilitated ash heaps that are no longer in use.

Can a large-scale photovoltaic system increase energy capacity in Kosovo?

This is the first large-scale photovoltaic system in Kosovo that can increase the installed capacity of photovoltaic energy from the current 10.1 MW (2022) to up to 110.1 MW. The project contributes to the achievement of these following United Nations Sustainable Development Goals:

How much energy will Kosovo generate by 2031?

To fulfil the National Strategy, it is envisaged that at least 1,400 MW of energy will be generated from wind and solar power by 2031. Kosovo still generates electricity primarily from coal-fired power plants, but a rapid expansion of green energy is aiming to change this.

How will KfW's solar power plant benefit Kosovo?

KfW is contributing EUR 29 million and will assume the leading role in financing the project. The solar power plant will help save more than 130,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually. In total, 152 GWh of green electricity will be produced annually, benefiting Kosovo households, public institutions and companies.

Who is Unisolar?

Based on previous personal experiences in energy systems and having it all the necessary European qualifications for photovoltaic systems, the two co-founders established company Unisolar L.L.C., with the aim of reaching the heights of a successful business in the field of renewable energy in Kosovo and wider.
