Our company has a highly developed awareness of environmental protection, present both in the process of planning the development of the transmission network and during the regular operation and maintenance of the transmission system”, said Aleksandar Mijušković,  Chairman of the Board of Directors.

The company strives to secure that the negative impact of development and progress on the environment is minimized. Besides, the company is oriented towards nourishing social responsibility towards its employees and the whole society.

Building facilities - substations and transmission lines - in accordance with technical norms, legal regulations and recommendations of relevant domestic and international institutions and organizations is the priority. It secures the safe and reliable functioning of the system with high measures to protect the health of people”, explained Mijušković.
