Renewable-energy manufacturing opportunities: Serbia’s role in Europe’s energy-transition supply chain

Europe’s energy transition is not only an energy-system transformation but a manufacturing one. The deployment of renewable generation, grids and storage requires an immense volume of fabricated components—many of them heavy, customised and sensitive to logistics costs. Serbia is increasingly positioned to capture this demand as a near-source manufacturing base for Europe’s energy-transition supply chain.

Serbia’s renewable milestone: What 48% green electricity really means for the country’s energy future

Serbia closed the previous year with one of the most striking statistics in its recent energy history: 48 percent of all electricity generated came from renewable sources, according to government data. At first glance, the figure appears to position Serbia among Europe’s more advanced energy-transition performers, surpassing several EU members in renewable penetration. With hydropower providing

Europe’s renewable energy update: Solar PV rebounds in Germany while wind patterns shift across the continent

In the week of December 1, solar photovoltaic (PV) energy production in the German market increased by 8.7% compared to the previous week. In contrast, the markets of Italy, France, and the Iberian Peninsula recorded declines for the second consecutive week. The Portuguese market experienced the largest drop at 33%, followed by a 27% decrease

Emerging trend: Hybrid wind–solar–battery EPC models in Southeast Europe — the new frontier of renewable bankability

The evolution of renewable energy in Southeast Europe has reached a turning point. Wind alone once defined the investment landscape in Serbia, Croatia, Montenegro, and Romania, offering scale, strong resource potential, and an early-mover advantage for international investors. Solar then followed, expanding rapidly as photovoltaic costs collapsed and permitting frameworks matured. But today, neither wind

EPC contractors in Southeast Europe — The hidden hierarchy of capability, risk appetite and bankability

For many investors entering the Southeast European wind market, EPC selection appears on the surface to be a straightforward process: identify a reputable contractor, negotiate a fixed-price contract, embed performance guarantees, and proceed. Yet the more one works in Serbia, Croatia, Montenegro, and Romania, the clearer it becomes that EPC contractors operate in a hidden

Europe: Solar production declines while wind output rises in late November markets

During the week of November 24, solar photovoltaic (PV) energy production declined in most major European electricity markets compared to the previous week. The German market experienced the largest drop, falling 54%, followed by France (13%) and Spain (10%). The Portuguese market recorded the smallest decrease at 8%. The Italian market was an exception, reversing

Transmission first: Why Serbia’s grid expansion will determine all future RES investments

The future of Serbia’s renewable-energy sector will not be decided by auctions, PPA structures, investor appetite or available land. These elements shape the market, but they do not define its limits. The true bottleneck—and the ultimate enabler—of Serbia’s energy transition is the transmission grid. Every planned wind farm, solar park, battery system, hybrid plant or

HV/MV infrastructure: The unseen backbone of Serbia’s renewable build-out

The growth of renewable energy in Serbia is often narrated through visible symbols: turbine towers rising above agricultural fields, solar panels stretching across the landscape, cranes assembling nacelles, substations humming with new capacity. But the real story of Serbia’s energy transition is not written in these visible elements. It is written in the invisible backbone
