Background
In 1999 it was reported that British power company EFT was interested in construction of steam power plant of 132 MW on the territory of village of Tijanja near Lučani, an area in Serbia with coal deposits.[1]
In 2008 EFT said it was expecting to be granted a full exploitation permit for the Cukara coal mine in the municipality of Lučani. According to EFT, "the available deposits and the lignite characteristics provide basis for further considerations related to investment in a MW 132 thermal power plant at the location."[2]
In 2009 EFT said the Cukara project was at the bottom of its list of priorities.[3]
As of mid-2014, EFT no longer mentions the project on its web site. With no reports of progress in five years, the project appears to have been abandoned.[4]
