After the Government of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina gave approval to the Federal Ministry of Energy, Mining and Industry to issue an energy permit for the building of the Podveležje windmill with 48 MW of installed power and planned annual electricity production of 10 GWh, the Parliament is on the move, Sarajevo Times reported, quoting Ekapija.ba portal.

Amil Kamenica, head of capital investments in Elektroprivreda BiH utility, said a lot of paperwork and permits are needed for the project to be completed. Preparation of the tender documentation is in progress, he added. Financing is provided and everything runs by its course,“ Kamenica said, emphasizing that he expects all arrangements for the Podveležje windmill to be finished this year, in order for it to be built in 2016.
