“We will be even stronger, more successful and more persistent in our intention to make CGES a modern international company that makes progress in all segments of operation. We are on a good path to achieve that. We have put our priorities in order, so number one is the need to ensure reliable transmission of electricity to all our users. Increasingly strict requirements regarding the quality of power supply, providing prerequisites for coupling the electricity markets in the region, the necessity of coordinating procedures with other transmission systems in the interconnection, implementation of the most modern technological solutions and numerous investments are still challenges for our company, but at the same time they strengthen it day by day", Aleksandar Mijušković concluded.
