Bosnia and Herzegovina: Lager plans solar power plants in former coal mining area in Sanski Most

Local company Lager has announced plans to build solar power plants in the coal mining region near the village of Kamengrad, located in the Sanski Most municipality. The company has been extracting lignite from the area for the past decade. To move forward with this initiative, Lager has submitted a proposal for a regulatory plan, which was recently approved by the Municipal Council of Sanski Most. The approval initiates the process of developing the plan, following all necessary legal procedures, to facilitate the construction of the planned energy facilities.

Lager intends to construct four solar power plants, with capacities ranging from 25 to 29 MW. The proposed regulatory plan will cover an area of 479 hectares, which includes land that was previously used for coal mining. Once the mining activities in the area are completed, the land will undergo reclamation to restore its original state, making it suitable for the installation of solar panels.

Since beginning coal extraction in the Kamengrad region in 2015, Lager’s mining operations have grown substantially, particularly in recent years, driven by the energy crisis and increasing demand for coal. However, the company’s shift toward renewable energy marks an important step in its broader goal to become a leader in green energy in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Lager is also expanding its renewable energy projects in neighboring Croatia and Serbia as part of its regional green energy strategy.
