Western Balkans - Regional Feasibility Study for Voltage Profile Improvement
The project is part of the overall framework contract 'Western Balkans Investment Framework (WBIF) - Infrastructure Project Facility - Technical Assistance 7 (IPF 7), Infrastructures: Energy, Environment, Transport and Social' which has been awarded to a consortium of nine European firms under the leadership of Hill International. The purpose of this framework contract is to support the preparation and implementation of priority investment projects to be financed by a combination of grants and loans in the environment, energy, social and transport sectors, up to a maximum budget of 20,763,400 Euros.
The Regional Feasibility Study for Voltage Profile Improvement aims to:
- Identify the causes of excessive steady-state voltages beyond normal designed values
- Develop a methodology to find an optimal solution including location and technical solutions of equipment to be installed
- Define and agree criteria for choosing the optimal solution for the whole region
The lead IFI of this subproject is Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW).
