Representing CGES, the meeting was attended by the Chairman of the Board, Mr. Aleksandar Miju\u0161kovi\u0107, Executive Director, Mr. Ivan Asanovi\u0107, Company Secretary, Ms. Katarina Blagojevi\u0107, and the Head of the Executive Director Office, Mr. Aleksa Kne\u017eevi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Minister \u0160ahmanovi\u0107 expressed his great satisfaction and pride in the ongoing cooperation and synergy between the Ministry and CGES, particularly with regard to the involvement of expert colleagues from CGES in aligning national legislation with EU regulations. This collaboration is crucial in preparing Montenegro\u2019s energy sector to meet European standards and obligations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The discussion focused on key issues for the future growth and operation of CGES, including the implementation of the CBAM regulation, intensifying the investment cycle, and the continued development and modernization of the electrical infrastructure. A special emphasis was placed on projects aimed at ensuring the long-term stability and alignment of Montenegro's transmission system with EU market and technical standards. Coordination with state institutions was highlighted in anticipation of upcoming energy challenges, the closing of negotiation chapters, and Montenegro\u2019s EU accession.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The meeting confirmed a strong alignment between CGES\u2019s strategic goals and those of the Ministry of Energy and Mining, as well as their joint commitment to further investments and the development of projects that will position Montenegro as a key player in the regional energy market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following the meeting, an important document was signed, extending the validity of shareholder voting provisions as an integral part of the Strategic Shareholder Agreement between the Government of Montenegro, CGES, and Terna S.p.A. By signing this agreement, both parties reaffirmed their long-term strategic partnership and continued joint efforts in the energy sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Voting Act regulates the manner in which the shareholders \u2014 the Government of Montenegro, CGES and Terna \u2014 exercise their voting rights in respect of their shares in this energy company. As the law stipulates that such an agreement can have a validity of no more than five years, the shareholders periodically renew it, without amending the basic provisions defined in the Strategic and Shareholders' Agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today\u2019s event marks a further step in the longstanding collaboration, which has been instrumental in implementing one of the most significant infrastructure projects \u2013 the submarine cable connecting Montenegro and Italy. This project stands as a symbol of technical excellence, energy connectivity, and the trust that CGES and Terna have built over many years of cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By signing the voting agreement, both parties reaffirmed their commitment to continuing strategic cooperation, jointly leading and developing the regional energy market, investing in the security and modernization of transmission systems, and remaining open to new projects that will contribute to energy integration and sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CGES and Terna remain dedicated to developing advanced, reliable, and interconnected energy infrastructure, and further strengthening their partnership, which has proven to be long-term, stable, and exceptionally successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Minister \u0160ahmanovi\u0107 stressed that the Ministry would continue to support the development projects of CGES and its partner institutions, confident that sustained cooperation and regular communication will be key to progress. Looking ahead, the focus must be on attracting investment and building capital projects in renewable energy, which will serve as the main drivers of Montenegro\u2019s energy and economic growth.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":7900,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true},"class_list":["post-7899","vijest-i-dogadjaj","type-vijest-i-dogadjaj","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cges.me\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vijest-i-dogadjaj\/7899","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cges.me\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vijest-i-dogadjaj"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cges.me\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/vijest-i-dogadjaj"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cges.me\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7900"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cges.me\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7899"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
