Suharekë's air quality faces significant challenges in the Kosovo Metohija valley, with residential coal and biomass burning generating elevated PM2.5 under winter temperature inversions combined with vehicle traffic on the M25 road. The surrounding Šar Mountain and Paštrik massifs create topographic enclosure, while winter energy poverty-driven coal burning generates elevated seasonal concentrations typical of Kosovo's broader winter air quality challenge in the Metohija basin throughout the heating season.
