EU and partners support energy efficiency projects across Kosovo
Nearly 100 families and multiple businesses in Kosovo are already benefiting from the European Union’s Energy Support Package, which helps households and enterprises save energy, reduce bills, and embrace renewable solutions.
EU Office Deputy Head of Cooperation Alessandro Bianciardi, together with acting Prime Minister Albin Kurti, acting Minister of Economy Artane Rizvanolli, and local partners, visited projects in Vushtrri/Vučitrn and Mitrovica South on 1 September 2025.
In Vushtrri/Vučitrn, Greenfungo LLC received solar panel subsidies to lower energy costs and adopt renewable energy. In Mitrovica South, the EU inaugurated renovations of two social multi-apartment buildings in Desi and Shipol/Sipolj, valued at around €575,000, benefitting nearly 100 families. These investments improve living conditions, reduce energy bills, and increase resilience to energy challenges.
Both projects are part of the EU’s €75 million Energy Support Package, implemented with the government of Kosovo and the Kosovo Energy Efficiency Fund, supporting businesses, households, and Kosovo population towards a greener and fairer energy future.
