The newly appointed Management Board of Public Enterprise Elektroprivreda BiH approved 7.4 million BAM for the Zenica Brown Coal Mine, Elektroprivreda BiH announced.
The money was approved with the aim of settling obligations towards the employees of the Mine for June and July of this year, unblocking accounts and restarting production.
“RMU “Zenica” has committed itself to the production of 35,000 tons of coal per month, which will facilitate the provision of the necessary quantities for the operation of the “Kakanj” thermal power plant, provide the basis for the return of the received advance and enable continuity in the production process,” the announcement states.
Bearing in mind the upcoming period of lower temperatures that make conditions for exploitation more difficult, Elektroprivreda believes that it is necessary to undertake measures and activities to increase coal deliveries from all mines of the Concern, to prevent work stoppages and enable the smooth operation of tremo plants, to preserve the integrity of the power system and stable supply to customers.
