March 12 (SeeNews) - Montenegro plans to couple its day-ahead electricity market with Italy, thus connecting it to the single European market, the government in Podgorica said.
The best solution to connect directly to the European electricity market is to provide a link to EU member Italy that is applying European legislation, the Montenegrin government said in a statement last week.
The coupling is expected to be completed in early 2026.
Montenegro launched its day-ahead electricity market on the Montenegrin Power Exchange (MEPX) in April 2023.
