North Macedonia relies on fossil fuels and hydropower, and also relies on electricity imports. Albania produces a large part of its electricity from hydroelectric power plants.

Serbia, Albania and North Macedonia have agreed to form a joint commission to help each other overcome the threat of energy and food shortages this winter. Reuters writes about it.

At the Open Balkans Summit in Belgrade, Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić and Albanian and North Macedonian Prime Ministers Edi Rama and Dimitar Kovachevski agreed to create a body to help the three governments share their energy and surplus that food.

“Everything of ours is available in North Macedonia and Albania and vice versa,” Vučić said at a press conference.

Serbia is almost entirely dependent on Russian gas imports and generates about 70% of its electricity needs from outdated coal-fired power plants.

North Macedonia relies on fossil fuels and hydropower, and also relies on electricity imports. Albania produces a large part of its electricity from hydroelectric power plants.

Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama said the three countries would ask the EU to help them get through the winter.

“The best scenario for Albania is half a billion euros in additional spending on continuous electricity supply. I urge the EU not to repeat its shameful behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic, when Western countries Balkans were forced to turn to China, Russia and Turkey,” he said.

It was previously reported that Serbia has enough funds to provide an alternative to Russian energy carriers and cope with the shortage of supplies from Russia, which is expected in the coming months.
