According to the Kosovo Agency of Statistics (ASK), the energy sector recorded notable shifts in May 2026 compared to the previous year. A significant increase was observed in the gross production from hydroelectric power plants. Specifically, the gross electrical energy generated by these facilities reached 49.22 GWh in May 2026, marking a substantial increase of 51.38% when compared to the figures recorded in May 2025.
Despite the rise in hydroelectric output, the total gross electrical energy available was 484.02 GWh, representing a slight decrease of 0.41% year-over-year. Concurrently, electricity consumption rose by 8.88% compared to May 2025, reaching 398.66 GWh. The ASK data also highlighted the growing contribution of renewable sources, noting that alternative electrical energy accounted for 22.20% of the total consumption during the period.
Regarding energy trade, the nation imported 422.31 GWh of electrical energy in May 2026. The data provided also noted the volume of exported electrical energy, which was detailed in the original report. Overall, the statistics provide a detailed view of the sector’s operational capacity, consumption patterns, and the increasing reliance on diverse energy sources.
