Albania is a net importer of electricity; power supply security is a challenge. Albania’s domestic generation is almost entirely dependent on hydropower since the country’s only thermal power plant is currently inoperable.
Albania declared an energy emergency due to the strong rally in electricity prices and said it would allocate EUR 200 million for state-owned power distribution operator OSHEE and introduce other measures to protect households and small businesses.
Currently, all existing producers of electricity in Albania rely on hydropower, therefore no priority is attached to the generating installations. Furthermore, the transmission system operation is carried out by an independent operator of the transmission system that dispatches the producers based on market rules.
Albania depends almost entirely on hydropower plants and it has no pumped storage capacity. Rama noted the country is forced to buy energy from abroad at times of drought at higher prices than for its electricity exports. The government will prevent the prices for households and small businesses from rising, Rama stressed.

Albania depends almost entirely on hydropower plants and it has no pumped storage capacity.
