60 YEARS OF BUILDING

Inspiration for achieving of victorious goals in future derives from the rich history of Energoprojekt`s creations during its sixty years of existence.

Inspiration also derives from its employees: managers who led Energoprojekt and managed its projects; engineers who designed and built; economists who took care of economics and funding of projects and the company; lawyers who carried out all legal affairs and many technicians and skilled workers who turned all drafts and projects into significant facilities and landmarks at home and worldwide. Past shall not be forgot- ten, it shall be a signpost for the future.

Selected projects listed in this monograph are only a part of Energoprojekt `s creative past. Designed, built and equipped hydro and thermal power plants, dams, irrigation systems, tunnels, thousands of miles of transmission lines and hundreds of miles of highways, conference centres, ministerial complexes, hotels, hundreds of thousands square meters of office and residential buildings, as well as numerous industrial, public and infrastructural facilities at home and abroad, all this binds employees to continue the good work and further contribute to Energoprojekt`s success.

Founded on July 11, 1951, as a small bureau ‘Hidro-Termo Elektroprojekt’ for design of hydro and thermal power plants, it has evolved into a world renowned complex business system for design, consulting, engineering and construction of complex infrastructural and other capital projects, traditionally on lists of the world’s largest engineering and contracting companies. For years, revenue from projects abroad significantly exceeded the revenue at home. Its markets included the countries in Africa, Asia, South America and Europe. Projects were realized in more than 70 countries. Through its local subsidiaries, joint venture companies worldwide, or direct contracting, Energoprojekt broadened its international business. It has its own companies in the world financial centres of London, New York and Frankfurt. The sequence of tragic events that af- fected our country in the 90s slowed down, but did not stop further business development of Energoprojekt at new significant international markets.

Growth and development of Energoprojekt in the following decades shall be based on teamwork of ambi- tious, professional and managerial resources, securing of prerequisites for employing and further development of young specialists, capable to apply the latest know-how and technology and continue building further the name of Energoprojekt and ensure its results, locally and internationally, for the benefit of employees, shareholders, investors and local communities.

Whether the name of Energoprojekt shall build further within the existing ownership structure, or there shall be proprietary or business connections with reputable international companies and investors, this shall depend on market demand and investors, as well as expectations of shareholders and employees of Ener- goprojekt.

Celebrating the sixtieth anniversary of Energoprojekt, current management undertakes to lead Energopro- jekt returning to traditional values presented in this monograph.

DEVELOPMENT

Energoprojekt strongly expands its business, signing contracts at new markets. Contracts for design of industrial facilities at home and abroad were signed, and even some construction and commissioning contracts.

The following factories were built: factory for agricultural machines ’Zmaj’ in Belgrade (1963); abattoirs (slaughterhouses) and cold-storage buildings in Mali (1964), Ghana (1966), Liberia (1969), Tunisia; spinning and weaving plants and leather factories in Algeria (1965-1967); fruit processing factory Grocka (1966), gold- smith and flotation Bor (1970)... Investment programs, preliminary and general designs of processes and plants were done for industrial facilities in Serbia, Macedonia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Projects became more complex and together with design, construction began of the first hydropower facilities abroad. To solve engineering and technical problems, Energoprojekt purchased its first computer, ELLIOT 803 B (1962). Computer centre became the germ for strong computing business which was developed in the following decades.

HPP Kpime, Togo was the first engineering work of Energoprojekt abroad and it included research, construction, delivery and installation of equipment (1963).

In Serbia, according to Energoprojekt`s designs, hydro power plants Kokin Brod (1962), Bajina Bašta (1966) and Potpeć (1963) were built and put into operation.

Designer of HPP Djerdap, Vukadin Djordjević, was the second expert in Energoprojekt, following arch. Milica Šterić, who won the most significant award in Serbia, the July th7 award (1973).

Business expansion of Energoprojekt continued. The following hydro power plants were built and commis- sioned: Donkea in Guinea (1971); Baoli II in the Central African Republic (1976); Bayano in Panama, with a 72m high concrete dam and installed capacity of 300 MW (1976); Sigalda in Iceland, with the installed capacity of 3x51.5 MW (1977). In Zambia, HE Kariba, with the installed capacity of 4x150 MW and the second phase of HPP Kafue Gorge (1977) were built and put into operation. Both power plants had the installed capacity of 1,600 MW. Works on phase I of the complex irrigation system Chira–Piura (1978) were completed and contract for phase II was signed.

The Financial Times stated that Energoprojekt, according to the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, was one of the top ten construction companies of the world. Journalists from Panama elected Energoprojekt as ’a foreign company of the year’, for the project HPP Bayano (the most significant facility of this country after the Panama Canal).

According to its own projects, Energopro- jekt builds two complexes of recognizable architecture - the residential-administrative complex Al Khulafa in Baghdad (1984) and the Congress Centre with the Sheraton Hotel in Harare (1985).

Energoprojekt designed and built its new head-office building of 50,0002 m (1982) which it occupies today. For this project, the author, architect Aleksandar Keković, was awarded the Borba Prize for architecture. For the Hyatt Hotel in Belgrade, some design and finishing works were done, and expert assistance was rendered in organization and coordination.

In this decade Energoprojekt`s IT business was intensely developing. Energoprojekt installed a new computer, Sperry 1170. It spread its business at the then Yugoslav market which was automating banks, post offices and large systems. Energoprojekt became a leader in implementation of large computer networks. Hardware and software of the world’s leading IT companies were delivered. Its own line of TIM computers was developed and produced to automate businesses of post offices and banks. Software was developed to meet the needs of large business systems, while foreign software was customized to domestic market`s work conditions. Support centres were formed in all major cities of the Yugoslav republics.

Some of the clients at home were: Jugobanka, Belgrade, with over 100 branch offices and 300 workstations and SW for business (1981); Privredna banka, Sarajevo (1984); JIK banka, Belgrade (1984); Serbian Post Office, Belgrade, a network of 25 regional centres, 100 post offices and over 700 workstations with SW (1981); Tito- gradska banka, Titograd, Montenegro (1985); Montenegro Post Office, Titograd, with more than 250 computers and SW for business (1986)... Computer centres were formed and IT support for Energoprojekt projects continued abroad: Badra Jassan in Iraq (1982), Kiambere in Kenya (1985), in Panama (1986)... Its own IT projects were done in Iraq, Bulgaria, Turkey, Hungary

1951-2011 60 YEARS OF SUCCESS

THE POWER OF KNOWLEDGE

Activities of Energoprojekt include areas on which survival and progress of the mankind is based, which substantially af- fect economic and social development – water, energy, environment...

Technical and technological development is the prerequisite for satisfying increasing needs for energy, water, food, information, healthier environment, in short, for a better quality of life.

Energoprojekt began spreading its business around the world and began cooperation with developing countries with a transfer of technical and technological know-how. Understanding the needs of these countries, Energoprojekt began to perceive their developmental problems and offered them an interdisciplinary approach for their solving. Versatility of Energoprojekt`s experts, qualified for research, design, consulting, engineering, construction, selection, delivery and installation of equipment, contributed to its advantage and reputation. In the first decade already, Energoprojekt gained a valuable potential, employing world-class experts, while its continuous process of modernization of all activities became its permanent technological orientation.

In Serbia there is no engineering company which, like Energoprojekt, has an integrated multi-disciplinary activity, vast experience in various fields of implemented projects at different markets, therefore Energoprojekt may be considered as a Serbian brand.

Development of the world`s science, engineering and technology eliminates competitors who lag behind. In order to be up to technical and technological developments of the world, Energoprojekt was from its beginnings involved in the global division of labour, and always up-to-date with the latest techniques and technologies, which has ensured its stable growth and development.

Since its founding, Energoprojekt has believed it of great importance to cooperate with large foreign companies, with creative adoption of positive world experiences, their implementation and adjustment to markets at which it worked.

Enormous intellectual capital was acquired in the past six decades. It lies in the competence of experts and the international reputation of Energoprojekt (references, acquired image, good relations...).

The global concept of sustainable development implies opening of national markets to international competition. In order to develop further all companies must ensure high competitiveness. Open nature of world markets results in a struggle for skilled labour, therefore acquiring and use of know-how becomes an impera- tive. Energoprojekt has a good tradition in this. Since its founding, it has stimulated acquiring of new know- how, and its strategic plans pay particular attention to training and development of its experts. Challenges of competition are not strange to Energoprojekt.

Energoprojekt is still, as always, a socially responsible company which respects the principles of a socially responsible business.
