ESM PRODAZBA

ESM Prodazba is subsidiary of JSC Power Plants of North Macedonia, previously known as ELEM (Power Plants of Macedonia).

Electricity is the most important factor for the economic development of a country and our prime goal is not only electricity production but also finding new energy sources and improvement of the ecological awareness. Electricity is not gift from God, it is the most sophisticated energy source. Our country abounds with various natural treasures and resources which could provide enough energy for all our necessities. We improve nature and we create energy.

For us in ESM every drop of water and every piece of land has enormous significance because we know that there is power there, the power of the energy is hidden there. ESM is the pillar of the country, without its stability there is no better and safer future and therefore there should not be delaying of the development solution for the future of our system. Our hydro and thermo capacities are working constantly and are maintained day and night.

From our capacities we provide around 90 % from the entire domestic production. We produce average annual up to 5000 GWh electricity from the thermo power plants which are with installed capacity of 824 MW, while from the hydro power plants, which are with installed capacity of 556.8 MW, we produce 1200 GWh average annual electricity. From the wind park, with installed capacity of 36.8 MW, we produce more than 100 GWh average annual electricity. Part of the ESM system is the cogeneration gas power plant KOGEL which consists of 10 gas engines with a total electric power of about 30 MW, which can emit thermal power of about 26 MW. From April 2022, the first photovoltaic power plant FE Oslomej 1 started operating, with an installed capacity of 10 MW. FE Oslomej 1 is the first solar power plant in Southeast Europe built on an old mine.
