EFT is pursuing an ambitious plan of investment across south-east
Europe. The Group’s aim is to become the first privately owned,
major energy producer in the region. EFT’s strategic objective is to
deliver a substantial part of its trading portfolio from own energy
sources and, as a result, to ensure the long term stability of the
Group’s trading operation.
The company has already successfully realised over EUR 90 million of
investment, in the Fatničko Polje accumulation tunnel and the Stanari
mine in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This makes EFT the biggest foreign
investor in Bosnia and Herzegovina’s energy sector to date.
The cycle of investment includes the building of Stanari TPP, which
will be the first new thermal power plant in the western Balkans in
the last 30 years. EFT is also building the Ulog HPP in Bosnia and
Herzegovina, and is actively analysing several other projects in the
region.
All of EFT’s investments are developed in line with the European
Union directives on protection of the environment. The company’s
philosophy is that apart from providing sound basis for future
growth of EFT, the investments should also stimulate progress, job
and wealth creation, and provide foundation for sustainable growth
throughout the local communities.
