Promondis Energy, which makes large-scale photovoltaic systems, has offered to invest 45 million euros ($50.85 million) to build a 88.5 megawatt (MW) solar park in northwestern Bosnia, the regional government said on Tuesday. The German company on Monday applied for an urban development permit for the project that began in 2019 and should be located in the area of the town of Bosanski Petrovac, the government of the Una-Sana canton said on its website. The investor, who met Una-Sana Prime Minister Mustafa Ruznic, expects to start work in spring 2022 and complete the project in 2024, the government said, adding that it will be the largest solar park in the Western Balkans. Bosnia, which produces about 70% of its electric power from coal-fired plants, wants to reduce such power output and turn toward green production, aiming to totally stop energy output from coal by 2050.
