Does Kosovo have solar power?
Kosovo has the potential of capturing solar energy directly and converting it to electricity. The region of highest solar potential based on global horizontal irradiation is the southwestern part of Kosovo, centred around the city of Gjakova. Solar power is already used on the roofs of some buildings.
Why is Kosovo building a photovoltaic plant?
Kosovo’s Minister of Finance, Labour and Transfers Hekuran Murati said: “The signing of today's agreement for the construction of the photovoltaic plant is a landmark moment as Kosovo advances its initiatives to secure renewable energy use for its citizens.
