A public call for the construction of a wind farm in Braji?i with an installed wind power capacity of more than 70 megawatts should be announced soon.

The
Government of Montenegro has adopted the Information on the
announcement of a public call for a long-term lease of state-owned land
for the construction of a wind farm on the site Braji?i – Budva and Bar
municipalities. The Ministry of Economy of Montenegro is in charge of
issuing the public call for the lease. It is proposed to lease 13,8
million square meters of state-owned land at the following sites:
Braji?i, Kulja?e, Utrg, Ovto?i?i, Tomi?i and Br?eli located in the
municipalities of Budva and Bar, reports Investitor Portal.
Six
years ago the company Vjetroelektrana Budva, owned by the German company
WDP Europe and headed by Golub Seni?, showed interest in the
construction of the wind farm in Braji?i.
Subsequently, the
Ministry of Economy of Montenegro issued licenses for measuring and
exploring wind potential at the sites in the cadastral municipalities of
Kulja?a and Reževi?i II from May 2013 to November 2017. Based on these
measurements, the energy potential sufficient for wind power of more
than 70 megawatts was estimated.
