In the coming months, we are preparing for one of the largest wind energy production projects in Europe, for the wind farm located in the Tropoja area, which has initiated all authorization procedures, financed by one of the largest American companies.
"This work will add another green component to our energy crown. Albania is currently working to diversify its portfolio of several green sources."
