It was founded in 1991 and it has about 31,500 employees, making it the largest enterprise in the country. The company has an installed capacity of 8,359 MW and generates 37.04 TWh of electricity per year.〔 Its installed capacity in lignite-fired thermal power plant is 5,171 MW, gas-fired and liquid fuel-fired combined heat and power plants is 353 MW, and hydro power plants is 2,835 MW. EPS also operates three power plants of total capacity 461 MW which are not in the ownership of the company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eps.rs/Eng/Article.aspx?lista=Sitemap&id=9 )〕 EPS is also the largest producer of lignite in Serbia operating in the Kolubara and Kostolac basins, producing around 37 million tonnes per year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=EPS )〕 These two power plants has total installed capacity of 1,029 MW per year. ==History== Since 1870, the coal production has begun in Serbia. Fourteen years later, the first electric lighting in Serbia was furnished in the military office building in Kragujevac. On October 6, 1893, the first Serbian power plant in Belgrade started with the production of electricity. In 1900, first hydroelectric power plant to produce alternating current ''Pod gradom'' in Užice on the river Đetinja was put in the electricity grid. This power plant is still working operating. The first transmission line from hydroelectric power plant ''Vučje'' to Leskovac, with the length of 17 km, was three years later in operation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://voiceofserbia.org/serbia/story/vucje-power-plant-%E2%80%93-a-world-heritage-gem )〕 In 1909, hydroelectric plants ''Gamzigrad'' in Zaječar and ''Sveta Petka'' in Niš began to build. Two years later, the hydroelectric power station on the river Moravica in Ivanjica was put in the operation. In Belgrade, the power plant ''Snaga i Svetlost'' was built in 1933, being one of the largest in the Balkans at that time. The establishment of the Električno Preduzeće Srbije followed in 1945. Between 1947 and 1950, the hydroelectric power plant ''Sokolovica'' and coal power plants ''Mali Kostolac'' and ''Veliki Kostolac'', the first power stations to be built in Serbia after the Second World War. In 1952, the underground mining of the coal field ''Kolubara'' had started. Four years later, coal power plant RB Kolubara went in operation. A year earlier, the hydroelectric power plants ''Vlasina'' and ''Zvornik'' have been connected to the power grid. In the period from 1960 to 1967, hydroelectric power plants ''Bistrica'', ''Kokin Brod'' and ''Potpeć'' were under construction. In 1965, Združeno Elektroprivredno Preduzece Srbije was founded. The coal-fired power plant ''Bajina Bašta'' began with the production of electricity a year later. The two largest power plants in Serbia, the hydroelectric power plant HPP Đerdap I at the Danube river and the coal power plant TENT, went into operation in 1970. Twelve years later, the pumped storage plant ''Bajina Bašta'' was built, and in 1990 the hydroelectric power station ''Pirot'' was put into operation. In 1991, the company was reorganized and changed name to Elektroprivreda Srbije. During the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, many power plants have been severely damaged. With the establishment of the UNMIK administration in Kosovo on July 1, 1999, the company lost its access to the local coal mines and power plants, including Kosovo A and Kosovo B power plants.〔 Following the stabilization of the country after war, in 2004 EPS was again a member of the European interconnected system UCTE. Company operates in the current form since July 1, 2005. Then, the electric power transmission division of EPS was split from the company and established as its own public enterprise, named Elektromreža Srbije (EMS). Since 2007, EPS has prepared plans for the construction of new power plants and the expansion of existing plants to increase generating capacity and meet growing consumption demand. EPS currently holds a monopoly on the electricity market in Serbia, however since January 1, 2013, the market has been open to other companies. The market is expected to be completely liberalized in the coming years. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Elektroprivreda Srbije」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
