Prishtina, March 29, 2019 – Kosovo Chamber of Commerce and the American Chamber of Commerce in Kosovo welcome the decision of the Energy Regulatory Office (ERO) Board in the amendment of the Guideline on Liberalization of Electricity Market which will extend the deadline for consumers to change from the 35kV voltage by March 31, 2020.
KCC and AmCham express their consideration also for the members of the Parliamentary Commission for Economic Development, Trade, Industry, and Regional Development, for their recommendation to the ERO thus supporting the requests of the business community, and the Prime Minister of the Republic of Kosovo in enabling the dialogue between business representatives and the Energy Regulatory Office.
The decision of the ERO Board should enable better preparation even for consumers, but also for energy suppliers, and market liberalization.
At the same time, KCC and AmCham urge the Energy Regulatory Office to review the boundaries for electricity self-consumption, believing that removing boundaries in this regard would attract business investments in alternative sources of generating energy and in energy efficiency growth in general.
