Trucks with mud and stones are arriving at TENT again, burdening the operation of the power plant. The result is the import of electricity at high exchange prices, instead of cheap domestic production
AD EPS will spend the same amount of money for the import of coal this year for five million tons as for the complete production from RB Kolubara (something around 22 million tons). This will increase the producer price of the final product of EPS, electricity, by 50 percent, because those 27 million tons cost twice as much as if all 27 million tons were produced in Kolubara
I hear that the assembly, the Supervisory Board and the new Acting General Director of EPS are coming to visit TENT. Will someone show a human face and tell the visitors clearly and loudly that the place they came to is not their ass
The thesis that is mentioned in the public that EPS, if only there was enough coal, could have earned a billion euros from exporting electricity is wrong. With the existing production capacity of EPS, this simply would not be possible. On the contrary, due to very poor hydrology and despite the full production of electricity from coal, Serbia would still have to import smaller amounts of electricity. That is why the priority is to build new capacities, the only question is - which ones

All analyzes and questions about what Grcic's resignation means can be reduced to one word: nothing. Because the noise and smoke to cover up the real reasons for the situation in the EPS, loud incitement and mutual spitting of party comrades, licking the feet of the master while waiting for mercy, are nothing big.
"If Mrs. Zorana Mihajlović remains at the head of the Ministry of Mining and Energy for more than three months, if she leads that ministry for a single day after the election, our power system is condemned to death, to complete collapse," wrote the long-term acting director of EPS- and Grcic in his farewell letter. However, Grcic is not the real problem, he is only a consequence
Although Milorad Grcic really leaves the head of the EPS, he will be replaced by a new Mica, who should first ask politics for everything, i.e. the party, i.e. leader, well, if the directive is not in accordance with the economic interest of the company, so much the worse for the company. Due to such a systemic personnel policy of SNS in state enterprises, it is difficult to give an economic forecast in Serbia for the next year
Analena Burbock, Joe Biden, inflation, price increases, rising interest rates, the collapse of TENT, environmental rebellion, profiling of the opposition - the circumstances have changed a little before the elections on April 3. And then there's the smoldering, unpredictable pandemic
What did the TENT collapse reveal? Why did Darija Kisić Tepavčević become a character from Goran Marković's films? And what is the name of the last democratic institution in Serbia
"If I say now what everyone knows, that people who are incompetent came from the smallest manager to the top, is that a political story?" They are talking now about diversions. Well, this is an ambush suicide. Against whom was the diversion made? Against himself?”
Minister Zorane Mihajlović unequivocally knows who is responsible for the accident at TENT: first of all, the team that manages Elektroprivreda, then, according to the chain of responsibility, the minister herself. But precisely because she knows, she pretends not to know. Grdana and 101 Dalmatians can be so guilty
What is home business the progressive way? It is best to imagine a sweaty Siniša Mali throwing stacks of bills into the furnace of the Obrenovac thermal power plant with his sleeves rolled up.
EPS announces that due to "unexplained circumstances" and "deliberate errors in work", the police and security services will be looking for those responsible for the collapse of TENT. The investigation, therefore, will go in the direction of some third columnists and saboteurs, and not the completely incompetent progressive cadre, which includes acting director Milorad Grcic himself.
The source of "Vremena" says that not enough good lignite is sent to TENT and that is why it has already happened that the mixture of lignite with tailings is burned with the help of fuel oil: "They tried that this time as well, but now they were not lucky."
"Postponing investment repairs, both mines and mining equipment, is the constant action of the CEO of Elekroprivreda Srbija Milorad Grčić. Over time, tailings removal was reduced to scratching, regular annual overhauls were skipped as much as possible, and all forces were focused on coal production, because the boss likes big numbers." This was written more than four years ago in the text "Restrictions in the announcement" by "Vremena" journalist Zoran Majdin. It was as if he was writing today
While a large part of Serbia is without electricity or heating, the authorities blame "wet and heavy snow". Critics, however, say that this is the result of years of inexpert management of large systems such as TENT, Elektroprivreda or Kolubarski kopi.
