Fortis Energy has commenced construction of the Ersekë Solar Power Plant, a 75 MWp solar photovoltaic project integrated with a battery energy storage system (BESS) in southeastern Albania.

Located in the Taç-Lartë village of the Kolonjë region, the project is expected to generate approximately 135 GWh of renewable electricity annually. Construction has begun following the receipt of the necessary permits and approvals from Albanian authorities.

The development includes a battery energy storage system designed to enhance grid flexibility and support the integration of renewable energy into the country’s electricity network.

The Ersekë project forms part of Fortis Energy’s broader renewable energy expansion strategy across Southeast Europe. The company continues to strengthen its presence in the Balkan region through investments in solar and energy storage projects.

The project is expected to contribute to Albania’s energy diversification efforts by expanding solar generation capacity and supporting the country’s transition toward a more balanced renewable energy mix.
