She stressed significant results in maintenance and modernization of equipment, and added last year was successful despite the bad hydrological situation due to great floods.

Even with big problems, 1.62 TWh was generated in 2014, making it a record year, Serbian media reported. Daily record was also set, on April 21 last year, with 6.14 GWh. In the first quarter of 2015, production exceeded 465 GWh, she added, a new record for each of the three months.
