Elektroprivreda (EPCG) announced that the filling of the supply channels for the Hydro Power Plant (HPP) Perućica will start on Sunday. The plant is expected to be back in operation shortly thereafter.
The plant was initially scheduled to reconnect to the power grid on September 4, following a one-month maintenance period. However, due to additional work, the process will begin earlier than planned. The filling of the channels will commence early on Sunday morning, and the plant, which is one of the oldest large hydroelectric facilities, will soon be operational again.
EPCG has issued a safety notice to residents living near the Perućica hydroelectric system. They are advised to avoid the area and refrain from any activities close to the supply channels during the filling process to ensure their safety.
