Study Case: Northern Prishtina Main SS Prishtina 5 40% TR as 20kV 65% cables as 20kV SS Besia Energy received in northern Prishtina 121,504MWh (6,9 mil.euros) Technical losses 14% 17,469MWh (0,995 mil.euro)
SWOT Analysis Strengths o Existing capacities o Existing staff o Bottle necks finding o Previous experiences o Supervising projects Opportunities o Business development o Integration European Standards o Environment Security o Advanced Technology Weaknesses Financing difficulties Direction changes inv. Project delays Improper manag. Non technical influences Threats Lack future investments Property issues Social impacts
Technical Solutions A1: Upgrade cross section and build reserve supplies A2: Transition from voltage level 10kV into 20kV A3: Improve stability in LVN A4: Connect the feeders Besia

Project Benefits Technical cost benefit o Reduce technical losses o Ensure reliability and quality of electric supply o Modernize network capability o Elemination bottle necks Social & Environmental Benefits Investments in businesses
Future Recommendations MANAGERIAL Reduce commercial losses Increase collection Synchronized plans Northern Prishtina pilot project Spend more time developing the projects Develop PMO Offer industrial businesses special supplies
FINANCIAL Investments by KEK Involve telecommunication's operators Banks Donators Calculate NPV or IRR Money saved other similar projects
TECHNICAL EES computerized (LVN) Transition from 10kV to 20kV Replace overhead lines with cables (main roads) Separate feeder = 1+1 Change old equipments Increase supply sources Abolition 35kV level Reinforce MVN (cables, upgrade OHL) Shorten long lines Improve quality in LVN
Future Project Selection Criteria High technical losses & drop voltages Load shedding constraint Customer complaints Increase of electricity demands Maintenance equipment changes High cost benefit
