Montenegro’s state-owned power utility, EPCG, has reported that its coal-fired thermal power plant, TPP Pljevlja, has generated 987.4 GWh of electricity since the beginning of 2024. This figure represents a 1.2% decrease compared to the planned output for this period. Since its inception in 1982, TPP Pljevlja has produced a total of 44.1 TWh of electricity.

EPCG also announced that TPP Pljevlja is scheduled for a major refurbishment next year to extend its operational lifespan and align it with European Union environmental standards. Despite some delays in starting the project, the plant is expected to meet all environmental requirements by the end of 2025.

The CEO of EPCG, Ivan Bulatovic, stated that the planned reconstruction will cost nearly €70 million and will take about eight months. During this time, the plant, which typically accounts for approximately 40% of EPCG’s total electricity production, will be closed for most of the year. Notably, TPP Pljevlja generated a record-high 1,642 GWh of electricity last year.
