4 The ERO is an independent agency that regulates electricity, district heating, and gas markets in Kosovo. It was established in 2004, after the promulgation of the Laws on Energy, on Electricity, and on the Energy Regulator. The ERO helps to ensure that Kosovo's regulatory framework is in line with the EU 'acquis' on energy.
Coal accounted for 91% of electricity generation, with the remaining 9% derived from renewable energy sources, predominantly wind energy. Kosovo has been working on diversifying its energy mix and increasing the share of renewable energy sources to reduce dependency on conventional fossil fuels.
Kosovo was part of the Regional Energy Community and was connected with the regional system through interconnections with Serbia, North Macedonia, Montenegro and Albania. KOSTT made an agreement with ENTSO-E so Kosovo gets his own independent region of energy administration. Kosovo gets full independence and control of its energy industry.
The University of Pristina will soon provide training for energy assessors. The EPC calculation software prepared by the Fraunhofer Institute has been incorporated into this platform and will become operational soon.
The fact that the electrical energy system of Albania relies on hydro energy (almost 100%), while Kosovo relies on power plants, is a great opportunity for cooperation between the two countries.
