Overblown job promises in southeast Europe’s coal sector show the need for a just transition – report
November 14, 2016
Promises for new jobs in south-east Europe’s coal sector are exaggerated, a new Bankwatch report reveals. Hardly any coal operations across the region are economically viable, and as a result many coal workers, especially in the mines, are set to lose their jobs, even if the plans for countless new power plants materialise. Governments, coal workers and their wider communities need to work together towards a just transition.

Montenegrin power plant feasible only with creative accounting
August 1, 2016
Just as everyone else was going on holiday, on Friday night the Montenegrin parliament approved two decisions laying the ground for the controversial Pljevlja II lignite power plant.

Drugi blok nije isplativ
July 26, 2016
Ako će cijena izgradnje biti 321 milion eura, ako će Crna Gora odložiti plaćanje ugljen-dioksida do 2026. godine, ako će cijena struje značajno rasti, ako će cijene CO2 rasti sporije nego očekivano, ako će se troškovi proizvodnje uglja smanjiti na 17,5 eura po toni u sledećih 10 godina i ako se ne plaća PDV na opremu i izgradnju, onda će Pljevlja 2 možda biti isplativ, kazala ja predstavnica CEE Bankwatch Network Pipa Galop

Iz Ministarstva ekonomije su kazali da je studija Deloita uzela u obzir i najnepovoljnije varijante, odgovarajući na tvrdnje nevladinog sektora da je drugi blok Termoelektrane neisplativ. „Sve varijante pokazuju da je projekat isplativ“, navodi se u reagovanju Ministarstva ekonomije. Predstavnici civilnog sektora su jutros poručili da bi troškovi proizvodnje u Rudniku uglja morali da budu smanjeni, kako bi projekat gradnje drugog bloka Termoelektrane (TE) Pljevlja imao šansu da bude isplativ.
NVO: Smanjiti troškove proizvodnje
July 25, 2016
Troškovi proizvodnje u Rudniku uglja morali bi da budu smanjeni, kako bi projekat gradnje drugog bloka Termoelektrane (TE) Pljevlja imao šansu da bude isplativ, ocijenili su predstavnici nevladinih organizacija. Kako se navodi u saopštenju CEE Bankwatch Network, Mreže za afirmaciju nevladinog sektora (MANS) i Green Home-a, troškovi proizvodnje bi trebalo da budu smanjeni sa prošlogodišnjih 24,21 eura po toni na 17,5 eura po toni oko 2027. godine, a da nije uopšte sigurno da li će takvo smanjenje stvarno biti realizovano.
