TIRANA, January 13 – The Albanian Power Corporation reported that the daily electricity production in the three hydroelectric plants along the Drin River cascade reached 28,300 megawatts.

The corporation said the water levels in the cascade lakes were 292.4 meters at Fierza, 171.5 meters at Koman, and 74.7 meters at Vau i Dejës. Meanwhile, the water inflow to the cascade reached 1,000 cubic meters per second.

Two days ago, the corporation noted that the Drin River cascade was producing at maximum capacity due to the rise in water levels from early January heavy rainfall.

The daily electricity output from the three hydroelectric plants reached 25,000 megawatt hours. Authorities said this ensures stable supply for national needs and supports the country’s energy security.

To manage the inflows during the rainy period, officials said the Koman hydroelectric plant released 1,200 cubic meters per second, while the Vau i Dejës hydroelectric plant discharged 1,600 cubic meters per second.

The Albanian Power Corporation continues to monitor the cascade’s water situation carefully and constantly. Officials said they aim to guarantee safe and efficient management of water resources.
