Most of the facilities in Pristina’s ʹEmshire district are already locked into the Termoko heating network, while residents of the rest of the neighbourhood long expect them to have access to this service.

We’re not locked in Thermokos, a distance of about 20 meters of heat, they can’t get through the unpaved route, said one resident.

It’s very important, if we’re in this neighborhood for 12 years, Sėka Termokos said another.

Residents have shown that in the absence of heat from Thermocos, they use other heating alternatives, such as climates and furnaces.

Meanwhile, the management of Thermokos has said that the heating network, which currently extends to 110 km and includes 886 substations, is expected to expand through two major projects aimed at boosting capacities, providing more consumers and reducing air pollution in Pristina.

First of all, the Solar for Kosovo project, which is close to the start of implementation, is the tendering procedure of the company’s selection, fieldwork, through the 50 additional megawatts we receive from this project, through solar panels and for the first time that there will be an innovative project in our country, we will be able to benefit some 8600 consumers or residential units with some 34 thousand new residents, said Venus Uka, Temoko’s spokesperson.

Under this project, the expansion of the network in the Tophane neighbourhoods, Calabria, Lakzrecret, the Mojager Quarter and Old Pristina are also envisioned.

This year, about 30% of the citizens, or more than 25 thousand consumers of the capital, are locked in the Terkos heating network.
