On 6 June 2014, the Kosovo Energy Corporation's Kosovo A Power Station exploded killing two people and injuring thirteen others. The station was then subsequently shut down. The cause of the explosion was due to the explosion of a hydrogen tank located in a separate part of the power station from the generator.[3][4]
