The 1999-2000 Winterisation programme was a major success in that it provided shelter for all in need. The electrical power system in Kosovo is gradually being repaired. It is a main focus for the efforts of the European Agency for Reconstruction. A Franco-German company is assisting in the management of the Kosovo Electric Company. Transformers in Zvecan were funded by Denmark and erected by a Danish company.
Power is enough for the daily average, but is insufficient for peak time demand.
Since 2 December 1999 the Italian military railway company has made around 300 kilometers of railway lines operational. Six bridges have been repaired and 260 kilometers of roads have been repaired or rebuilt. More than half of the original Serb population left the province, but the majority of those who decided to leave Kosovo did so during the conflict or immediately after KFOR's arrival. This was before troops had properly deployed to protect the population against ethnic violence. Only small numbers of Serbs have been returning to Kosovo, due to concerns about security and also a shortage of appropriate housing.
