The aim of this action is to support Kosovo in addressing the environmental hazards emerging from air, water and waste pollution through climate action, depollution of water, and support to a sustainable waste management, in line with the Green agenda for the Western Balkans.Under the first two areas of support, the power utility Kosovo Energy Corporation, which operates two old coal power stations will be supported in a) the construction of its wastewater treatment plant, which will treat the industrial and other water before discharge into nature and b) the preparation of a project to reduce SO2 emissions from Kosovo B, thus complying with environmental directives of the Large Combustion Plant Directive and the Industrial Emission Directive. The third area of support will support the financial and institutional management as well as operations and maintenance of the Kosovo Landfill Management Company.
