The Sun Kosovo

Six weeks later, another company, Frigo Food Kosova, also sought a licence.The ERO granted both licences on May 19, 2016, handing them a whopping feed-in tariff of 136.4 euros per MW, which, according to the Vienna-based Energy Community Secretariat – an international body working to extend the EU’s internal energy market rules to neighbouring countries – is three times the current market price.Feed-in, or incentive, tariffs are fixed prices at which the ERO guarantees to investors that it will buy all the energy they produce over a 12-year period, a price passed on to consumers via their electricity bills.Investors are selected on a ‘first come, first serve’ basis rather than via open competition in which rival firms would seek to offer the most competitive price.It is a method that was criticised in separate letters to the ERO last year from the Energy Community Secretariat, the US overseas development agency USAID, the German embassy in Pristina/Prishtine and the European Commission, the executive arm of the European Union.The Germany embassy, in its May 2019 letter, said such a practice “carries a risk of corruption and unnecessary pressure from unreliable developers on the government and the ERO.”The German letter looks prescient in the light of BIRN’s findings.While Devolli was always known to have bought Birra Peja, BIRN has discovered that he also stands behind Frigo Food Kosova, meaning that Devolli, as a single investor, had been handed rights to produce six MW of solar energy, double the limit stipulated under ERO rules.Devolli’s ownership of Frigo Food Kosova is concealed behind a shell company registered in Malta under the name Frigo Food Solar. Do you actually know who could take us to court?” Without naming names, Misini replied, “I mean, in principle, they can sue us,” to which Janova responded, “Are we actually looking at fulfilling the requests of one particular operator here?”Janova voted against the feed-in tariffs for the extra energy, as did board member Besim Sejfijaj.The two other members of the board, Izet Rushiti and Selman Hoti, were in favour, but ultimately lost.Sejfijaj made the argument that an open competition could secure a more favourable price for the energy, echoing the advice of a number of international bodies.“Why should the consumer, as well as ourselves, be charged for the feed-in tariffs when tomorrow, someone may come with [an offer of] 50 or 60 euros [per MW],” he said.Fast forward 48 days to the November 27 meeting and Sejfijaj switched sides, voting in favour and clearing the way for the ERO board to set the feed-in tariff at 85.5 euros per MW. Electra received the contract before Hoti’s appointment to the ERO board in March 2018.Hoti told BIRN he had asked Kosovo’s Anti-Corruption Agency, AKA, whether this represented a conflict of interest but said that he did not receive a reply.“Back then I was not a member of the [ERO] board, nor did I have any connection with the ERO,” he said. "They are the biggest club in Switzerland and they have one of the best academies in Europe. If you see other players go the same way, it gives you confidence that it is possible.

Eight companies were allocated a total of 20 MW – 10.7 of which went to four companies that, it turns out, are controlled by one man – Blerim Devolli.To date, no evidence has been produced that would suggest the ERO faced any risk of being challenged in court.But it would not be the first time that public officials have faced the threat of legal action from wealthy private interests.In 2015, Devolli’s telecommunications provider, Z Mobile, took state-owned Kosovo Telecom to the Court of Arbitration.
