By 2025 wind power has become the quiet stabiliser of the South-East European electricity system. Unlike solar, which floods the grid in predictable daylight waves and collapses at sunset, wind delivers energy across the full 24-hour cycle, smooths residual demand, strengthens export capacity in key markets and materially reduces fuel and carbon exposure. It does […]
Plans for the Korita wind power project in the municipality of Bijelo Polje have advanced after the Environmental Protection Agency granted approval following the completion of the environmental assessment process. The project envisions a wind farm with a total installed capacity of 72.6 MW in the village of Korita. The environmental impact study met all

For investors studying Serbia’s power market in 2025, numbers alone never tell the full story. Installed capacity figures, annual production projections, and formal energy-balance plans may suggest a structurally healthy system: roughly 9 GW installed, around 38.5 TWh of electricity projected to be produced, imports and exports close enough to appear balanced, and a state
Weekly averages during the week of December 22 were below €85/MWh in most markets. Exceptions were the UK (€91.33/MWh) and the Italian IPEX market (€108.41/MWh). The Nordic market recorded the lowest weekly average at €38.34/MWh, while other markets ranged between €69.41/MWh in France and €83.02/MWh in Germany. Regarding daily prices, on Thursday, December 25, the

The Federal Ministry of Environment and Tourism has officially launched the initial assessment procedure for a major wind energy project planned in the municipality of Glamoč. The request was submitted by local developer Vjetroelektrane, which is seeking approval to prepare a preliminary environmental impact assessment (EIA) study for the Slovinj wind farm. The project envisages
Europe has already crossed a strategic threshold. Renewables are no longer an experimental transition concept; they are the backbone of its emerging power system. Wind, solar and hydropower are structurally rewriting electricity economics. Storage is shifting from a niche support function into an essential strategic pillar. Flexibility has become capital. Stability now depends not on
Greece is set to revamp the spatial planning of renewable energy projects, with updated rules for siting installations expected to take shape over the next year. The Ministry of Environment and Energy is finalizing the criteria that will form the backbone of a revised Special Spatial Planning framework for renewable energy sources. Officials plan to
During the week of December 15, solar photovoltaic (PV) energy production declined across most major European electricity markets compared to the previous week. The Italian market experienced the steepest drop, falling by 41%, followed by the French and Spanish markets with decreases of 26% and 19%, respectively. The Portuguese market saw the smallest reduction at
