Kosovo’s* transmission system operator (TSO) KOSTT has signed agreements on connecting the 10 MW Lepenci hydropower plant (HPP) and the 34.5 MW Koznica wind farm with representatives of the two facilities’ operators.

The agreements were signed in compliance with the objectives of the National Strategy on Energy 2017-2026 regarding the security of power supply and the construction of renewable energy facilities, KOSTT said in a statement.
