Albania's Age Erzen seeks construction permit for small HPP near Tirana

Small hydropower plant (HPP).

Albanian company Age Erzen has applied for a building permit for a small hydro power plant (HPP), the energy ministry said.

The company plans to build a HPP of up to 2 MW on a tributary of Erzen river in Tirana region, the energy ministry said in a statement last week.

Albania produces over 90% of its electricity from HPPs, most of it from three power plants along the Drin river, in the northern part of the country.
