Koncar Engineering was the constructor of the power plant. They\u2019ve also built a system of controlling and supervising the power plant. By developing their KonSol converter, they\u2019ve ensured direct connection of the power plant to the distribution network.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides the power plant, <\/span><b>a special 1 MW battery tank will be installed<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, first of its kind in the country. It will be used to ensure the balance of the electricity system and keep the network safety on the island. By building the power plants, battery tanks and installing the underground cables HEP is increasing the safety of electricity supply. Each year HEP invests about 150.000\u20ac in infrastructure on Vis Island. <\/span><b>In the next 3 years, they will invest about 3 million \u20ac in several projects.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> One of them is installing 20 kV cable lines Hvar &#8211; Pakleni Otoci &#8211; Vis and Vis &#8211; Bisevo.
