Underwater energy connection between Albania and Italy - Today, the trilateral agreement also with the United Arab Emirates
Today, the signing of the agreement between Albania, Italy and the United Arab Emirates is expected for the construction of an underwater electricity transmission line between our country and the Italian state.
The signing of the agreement was preceded by the global summit "Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week", attended by Prime Minister Edi Rama and his Italian counterpart, Giorgia Meloni. During his speech, Rama focused on cooperation in the energy sector.
"I want to emphasize that Albania's partnership with the United Arab Emirates is important for a region that many wars and misunderstandings have shaped our past. Cooperation and the desire to be part of the great European family must be supported with concrete steps. The cooperation that has begun between the state-owned company KESH aims to develop up to 3 gigawatts of renewable energy. It is an important contribution not only to peace but also to cooperation in the region. Let me conclude by expressing my gratitude to someone who just entered the hall, which is Prime Minister Meloni who is here to bless this agreement between the United Arab Emirates and Albania."
The project has also been praised by the Prime Minister of Italy, Giorgia Meloni.
"I am extremely happy, as Prime Minister Rama also expressed, for this ambitious project. In fact, this project is a source of pride for me, as it shows new forms of cooperation that connect partners that may seem distant. Partners who see the chess field as a whole. This initiative is a concrete step towards a genuine global connection, capable of dynamically supplying energy. We now have a choice to make: either suffer from those transformations, or see them as an opportunity. We must choose the latter."
According to the Prime Minister, electricity production in Albania is 100% from renewable sources and we are part of the list of European countries when it comes to the percentage of renewable energy.
