Masdar, an Abu Dhabi-based clean energy company, has signed agreements with Montenegro's national power utility, Elektroprivreda Crne Gore, to develop two solar projects totaling 150 megawatts and 400 megawatts of pumped hydro energy storage. These projects aim to meet Montenegro's domestic electricity needs and export renewable power to southern Europe via an existing subsea interconnector with Italy. The agreements were signed in Tivat, Montenegro, with participation from UAE Minister Dr Sultan Al Jaber and Montenegro's Minister of Energy and Mining, Admir Sahmanovic.

The move aligns with Europe's goal to increase its renewable energy share to 42.5% by 2030 and reduce fossil fuel dependence.
