Description

The feasibility study for the development of a wind energy pilot project in Kosovo is a follow-up to an already carried out study, “Feasibility Study Wind Energy in Kosovo,” which had been supported by REPIC and resulted in a wind resource map for Kosovo. The aim of this new project is to evaluate the technical and financial feasibility with regard to realization of a wind park on an already chosen, adequate site (“Zatric”, near Rahovec in the Southwest of Kosovo). Detailed wind measurements on this site will be necessary on hub height, as well as additional assessments of accessibility, grid connection and availability of areas. During this project phase interested investors shall be gained for a later realization of the project or for potential follow-up projects.
