Specific problem to be addressed REK Bitola is one of the biggest polluters in Europe, where Sulfur dioxide (SO2) pollution from outdated thermoelectric power plants in the Western Balkans is increasing. Dust and nitrogen oxide (NOx) pollution from coal-fired power plants exceeds legal limits. REK Bitola, together with the coal-fired thermal power plants Ugljevic and Kakanj in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kostolac A2 in Serbia are among the biggest sulfur dioxide polluters in Europe.
Allowable annual sulfur dioxide air pollution limits were exceeded by 10 times last year, says Bankwatch's Comply or Shut Down 2023 report. Pollution with dust and nitrogen oxides is still above the permitted level, but no government has taken measures or fined the operators of the thermal plants.
"The findings of the report are extremely worrying, especially the part that the emissions from the power plants are not measured at all, but only calculated flat-rate
