The Kosovo Energy Corporation (KEK) has announced a temporary shutdown of Unit B2 in order to carry out a technical inspection, which is expected to last approximately 48 hours.
According to KEK, Unit B2 has been operating continuously since October 26, 2025, completing around 2,000 hours of uninterrupted operation, equivalent to 82 consecutive days.
“Unit B2 is being taken offline for a technical inspection after successfully completing approximately 2,000 hours of continuous operation,” KEK stated.
The corporation explained that the inspection is necessary due to the continuous operational load and current technical conditions. The process will include a comprehensive assessment of the unit’s condition, refreshing operational parameters, and ensuring stable and safe continuation of electricity production.
KEK confirmed that professional and technical teams have already begun the required interventions and verifications on the unit’s main equipment. During this period, repairs will also be carried out on several boiler pipes where leaks have been identified, aiming to increase safety levels and operational efficiency.
The energy corporation emphasized that the shutdown is planned and preventive in nature, intended to maintain long-term reliability and sustainability of electricity generation.
