The conference will offer information on the investment opportunities in the sector of energy and mining in Kosovo, in the scope of the achieved political and legal stability granted through the solution of the political status of Kosovo. The sector of energy is very important since it has the potential to turn around the economy of Kosovo. Kosovo is the fifth largest lignite depository in the world. New investments that are planed for the following years will make Kosovo one of the key players in the energy market in the region. Kosovo is planning to build a new power plant station and open new coal mines in the vicinity of Prishtina with a total new electricity generation capacities of around 2100 mega watts. These projects represent a great opportunity for Austrian investors.
