Monday, 07 September 2015

The Montenegrin government said it has approved transferring the contract for the lease of land and construction of a 46 MW wind farm to Malta's Enemaltafrom a consortium led by Spain's Fersa Energias Renovables.In 2010, Montenegro signed with the tie-up a contract for a 20-year lease on 502,858 sq m of land, at a price of 0.37 euro ($0.41) per sq m, for the construction of theMozura wind farm, the government said in a statement following a weekly session on Thursday.

Following the submission of all necessary documents by Enemalta, the government said it has approved the transfer of the lease.

The timeline for the construction of the wind farm has been extended from 18 months by an additional 15 months due to delays caused by the lease transfer.

Back in 2010, the planned annualoutput of the wind farm was announced at around 100 GWh with the required investment estimated at some 65 million euro.

Montenegro has no installed wind power capacity.
