Minister Damjanović expressed Montenegro’s readiness to move forward with the projects, in partnership with American companies and with the support of American development agencies.

In 2021, Singapore-based project developer LNG Alliance partnered up with Montenegro’s state-owned power firm EPCG to look into LNG and power projects and a dedicated LNG import terminal in the Port of Bar, and in May 2022, it completed the pre-feasibility studies for the terminal and signed a MoU with the Port of Bar for further advanced studies.

The Bar LNG terminal is expected to primarily serve Montenegro and major parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Serbia, Albania, and the southern region of Hungary.
