Background
This power station was one of two projects associated with the TAP (Trans-Adriatic pipeline), as Albania sought to make use of the interconnections available through the project.[4][5] However, the project has not moved forward with no announcement being made regarding the project since its inception. Accordingly, this project is assumed cancelled.
The construction of the power station in the future was mentioned the National Energy and Climate Plan of the Republic of Albania, released by the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy of Albania in October 2024. No additional details have been provided.[6]
