Trans-Balkan Electricity Corridor section put in operation
The EUR 27-million power transmission line is the first completed section of the Corridor and will connect Pancevo, northeastern Serbia, with Resita in western Romania.According to the Serbian government, Brnabic pointed out that this was "a state-of-the-art energy highway" and that Serbian energy sector was in this way "getting on its feet."
The EU supports such projects because this energy corridor is one of those prioritized, and the EU had allocated about 12 million euros for it 2014, Brnabic pointed out, and explained that this money was then redirected to help deal with the consequences of the floods that year.
For that reason, EMS invested 27 million euros of its own money in the project, she explained.
