Kosanica Solar, a company based in Pljevlja, is planning to build a solar power plant with a total installed capacity of up to 120 MWp in the Kosanica settlement of Pljevlja. The project will span multiple plots covering an area of approximately 121 hectares.
According to the proposal for urban-technical conditions submitted to the government by the investor, the preliminary analysis for the Kosanica solar power plant was conducted by Permonte from Podgorica. The analysis estimates the plant’s total installed capacity at up to 120 MWp.
The report highlights the use of agro-photovoltaic systems, which not only protect against excessive heat, drought, and hail but also reduce the need for irrigation by up to 20%. This reduced need for water increases the efficiency of the solar panels due to better cooling.
The document emphasizes that agro-solar systems are an innovative and efficient solution for combining electricity generation with sustainable agricultural practices on the same land. This dual approach results in significantly higher economic returns compared to relying solely on one type of production.
