VLEN: Membership in the Vertical Gas Corridor strengthens North Macedonia’s energy security and independence

North Macedonia has officially joined the Vertical Gas Corridor, the VLEN party announced today. The memorandum formalizing the membership was signed in Thessaloniki by NOMAGAS Director Nedim Rama.

According to VLEN, participation in this corridor gives the country the opportunity to expand its sources of gas supply and avoid dependence on a single source or route. The party says the agreement also increases North Macedonia’s role in the region’s energy system.

VLEN emphasizes that the energy crisis of recent years has highlighted the need for diverse sources and supply corridors. In this context, opening up new channels is considered important not only for economic development but also for the country’s energy security.

The party praised the work of NOMAGAS Director Nedim Rama, as well as the company’s entire team. According to the statement, the agreement was reached following several months of negotiations and coordination with regional partners.
