Prefect Nertil Jole declares:

“Together with the Mayor of Maliqi, Mr. Gëzim Topçiu, and representatives from the municipality, we held a meeting with the Administrator of ‘Statkraft’ in Albania, Ms. Rigela Gegprifti, who was accompanied by the company’s Finance Director, Mr. Jan Erik Felle, and the head of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment team, Mr. Jorn Stave.

• The company is currently conducting the first phase of the consultation process regarding the preliminary study of a strategic investment worth approximately 1.2 billion euros, which will be realized in our region by 2030-2031. This involves the construction of “RP Moglica Shtesë,” a large hydropower plant with a pumped storage system, as part of the Devoll Hydropower Project concession.
• This significant investment will have a very important impact, not only on the energy security of our region but also at the national and international levels. In this meeting, I emphasized the importance and necessity of considering the community’s requests regarding not just minimizing negative environmental effects but also improving infrastructure and biodiversity for the benefit of local communities.
• Energy remains a priority for the Albanian government, as part of a policy aimed at creating security and ease in a stable energy market, ensuring a development perspective with even greater economic impact.”
