Kosovo A Power Station is a lignite-fired power station with five units in Obiliq, Kosovo. With a capacity of 650 MW, it is the second largest power station in Kosovo after Kosovo B Power Station. It is described to be the worst single-point source of pollution in Europe. Despite plans to shut the units down in 2017, it was still partially operating as of March 2025.
