Their full contribution The Montenegrin Transmission System also contributed to the conference, through the third panel. in which Dr participated Branko Stojković, Assistant to the Executive Director for Development.
He said at the 'The Present and Potential of Montenegrin Energy' conference that the CGES should enable the supply to function normally, for producers to sell the energy they produce, and for the market to function properly.
"We strive to ensure everyone receives electricity with nominal parameters, first and foremost the nominal voltage and frequency. And I think we are succeeding in this. The quality of the supply is the measure of how successfully CGES is operating," said Stojković.
He said that it is very important to ensure a continuous supply to all consumers, that is, to 'minimise necessary interruptions to the lowest possible extent'.
"We strive to achieve this and it seems to me that year on year we are achieving better results. The total amount Undelivered electricity due to unplanned disruptions and outages on the transmission network for the past year was around 645 megawatt-hours, or 0.02 per cent. The unsupplied energy is less than in the previous year," said Stojković.
He pointed out that last year, not a single megawatt of allocated capacity was cancelled due to 'our internal problems or the unavailability of our grid', said Stojković.
According to him, power cuts and outages are quite rare.
"The product must be of high quality and we must minimise the outage time, that is, the time without power. We, as CGES, are improving the quality of our service, we are shortening the outage time as much as we can, and I think we will be even more successful in this and become even better, because the measure of our work is quality," emphasised Stojković.
He said that 21.7 million euros were invested in investment projects last year, and 'our plan is to invest 28 million euros during this year'.
