Lim River is a well known rafting destination.
Italian company Lusis & Partners has signed an agreement with Serbia's Ministry of Mining and Energy for the development of six small hydropower plants on the river Lim. The total value of the agreement is about EUR 120 million. Each hydropower plant is estimated to have about 10 MW of installed capacity, making the total capacity to be developed about 60 Mw. The new hydropower plants will not disturb the existing rich river wildlife, nor will they cause a rise in the water level or river flow changes.
Two hydropower plants will be developed initially. All the planned facilities will be connected to the national power grid, and will contribute to the development of local economies. Along with the power generating facilities, Lusis & Partners will also build access roads, and a rafting trail.
