The meeting discussed the activities that are being carried out in order to realize the project of building solar power plants in the area of the City of Zivinice with a total capacity of 60 MW, on degraded coal mine land.
According to Mayor Began Muhic, the mentioned solar power plant construction project is of capital importance for the City of Zivinice, which heralds a new era of energy transition, and production of green energy from renewable sources.
The implementation of the project started in May of this year, and the total value of the project is about 90 million BAM. The investor is EPBiH through the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), which will be the financier of the solar power plant construction project.
