Flexibility services: The missing system pillar in Serbia’s renewable transition

No element of Serbia’s future power system is more underestimated than flexibility. Serbia often discusses power plants, renewables, hydropower capacities and interconnections — yet the real determinant of whether Serbia can integrate renewables safely and cheaply is whether it builds a strong flexibility ecosystem. Flexibility is the system’s capacity to respond instantly to changes. Without […]

Electricity price forecasting in Serbia’s renewable future

Serbia’s electricity price terrain is becoming one of the most volatile and strategically sensitive elements of national policy and economic planning. As Serbia transitions toward greater renewable penetration, regional integration and more complex market dynamics, price forecasting transforms from a technical exercise into a question of national economic resilience. Prices in Serbia today are shaped

Renewable variability and demand forecasting in Serbia: Why the system must think smarter 

Serbia’s electricity demand forecasting is no longer the simple science it once was. The energy landscape is transforming, and Serbia is now managing not only demand patterns but also renewable variability, unpredictable hydrology and more dynamic consumer behaviour. Precision forecasting has become one of the most critical tools for system resilience, investment strategy and operational

Regulatory approaches to integrated energy systems in Serbia: From fragmentation to coherence 

Serbia’s energy policy is increasingly torn between its traditional sector-based governance and a future that demands full integration. Historically, electricity, gas, heating, fuel supply, and infrastructure planning existed as separate islands. Each sector had its own strategy, regulatory rules, investment plans and corporate logic. For decades, this structure worked. Today, it is becoming a structural

Network tariff design in Serbia: Pricing signals that match a changing power system

Serbia’s electricity tariff system is standing at a structural turning point. For decades, tariffs were built to serve a stable, centralized, largely state-dominated system with predictable consumption, limited distributed generation, and minimal behavioural responsiveness from consumers. That reality is disappearing. Today, Serbia is moving toward a power system influenced by renewables, digital technology, European market

Serbia’s baseload future: Assessing gas demand by 2035–2040

Serbia is entering the most decisive decade in the modern history of its energy system. What for years looked like a stable and predictable structure built around lignite baseload, large hydropower and modest imports is being replaced by a far more complex reality driven by renewables expansion, climate pressures, aging coal fleets, system reliability risks

Slovenia: Gen Energija commissions seismic risk assessment for Krsko NPP and proposed second unit

Gen Energija has selected the US-based engineering firm Rizzo International to conduct a probabilistic seismic risk assessment for both the existing Krsko nuclear power plant and the planned second unit. The study is expected to take approximately 15 months and will cost just over €2.1 million, excluding VAT. The project will also involve several subcontractors,

Slovenia: NPP Krsko set for strong year-end output and long-term planning

Despite undergoing a scheduled downtime this year, Slovenia’s sole nuclear power plant, Krsko, is on track to finish 2025 with electricity production exceeding expectations. Total output is projected to reach around 5.5 TWh, while forecasts for next year — when no regular maintenance shutdown is planned — point to generation surpassing 6 TWh delivered to

Serbia: Novi Sad seeks consultant for solar-thermal district heating project

Preparations for a major transformation of Novi Sad’s district heating system have reached a new stage, as the city-owned heating utility looks for a consultant to oversee delivery of its solar-thermal project. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has launched a prequalification process for advisory and supervision services linked to the initiative. The

Romania: Regulator fines Midia offshore gas consortium for non-compliance with domestic supply rules

Romania’s energy regulator ANRE has imposed a new round of financial sanctions on the consortium developing the Midia offshore gas field in the Black Sea, citing continued non-compliance with domestic gas supply obligations. The penalties target Black Sea Oil & Gas (BSOG) along with partners PetroVentures and GasPlus Dacia, despite previous sanctions in prior years.
