Flue Gas Desulphurization Construction Project for Thermal Power Plant Nikola Tesla

Background of the Project:

Thermal power plant, which is built in 1970, does not adjust to the strict EU environmental standards regarding the emission of SO2. Significantly large amount of sulphur in flue gases causes large air contamination and has very bad impact on peoples' health as well as on environment.

All Balkan countries which are in the negotiation process with the EU have obliged to decrease SO2 emission in thermal power plants to the acceptable level of 200 mg/Nm3 by 2023. This goal can be achieved by installation of flue gas desulphurization facilities in thermal power plants.

• Project type: ODA loan
• Project Objective: Lower SO2 emission to EU level
• Project Sites: Obrenovac
• Duration: From 2011 to 2022
• Executing organization: Elektroprivreda Srbije
• Expected Results:

  1)	Flue gas desulphurization facility is installed
  2)	EU standard for SO2 emission is achieved
  3)	Health condition of people and environment are improved
