Albania — Energy Infrastructure

OverWatts maps 32 energy assets in Albania across 8 layers — the 110th-largest mapped base of 157 countries. They include 16 power plants, 6 interconnectors and 4 cement plants. Operating generation capacity is 1.7 GW, led by hydro at 92%.

The companies named on the most assets are RenX Albania (4), KESH (3) and Statkraft AS (3), counting both ownership and operatorship. Half of Albania's mapped assets in service predate 2007 (median commissioning year of the 10 with a known date), 2 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Patos-Marinza Oil Field (Albania), dating from 1930. 14 projects are under construction or proposed, led by Moglicë Pumped Storage hydroelectric plant (1.2 GW).

Operating generation capacity by fuel

Utility-scale sites of 100 MW and above. Distributed generation — rooftop solar especially — is outside the tracker, so this runs below national installed capacity.
