Why does Serbia need a solar grid?

By creating a network of self-balancing solar plants, Serbia strengthens its energy security, attracts green investments, and aligns with global environmental standards. An interconnected grid also allows Serbia to better distribute energy, meeting future demands while maintaining grid stability.

How long does it take to install a solar system in Serbia?

“Nowadays, we work more on on-grid systems, for users who have electricity but want to make additional savings with solar energy. An average household in Serbia would require a solar plant of 5-10 kW. Such a system can be paid off in five to seven years. The installation is not complex and can be finished within a couple of days,” adds Nikola.

Where will solar power be installed in Serbia?

The Ministry of Mining and Energy and EPS (Elektroprivreda Srbije) partnered with Hyundai Engineering and UGT Renewables to drive this project. Serbia will soon see six large solar plants strategically positioned across the country. Key locations include Negotin, Zaječar, and Bošnjace.

Is solar power possible in Serbia?

With many sunny days, Serbia has great potential for solar energy. However, the use of solar power in residential buildings and individual houses is still in its early stages. The country’s recently adopted energy laws, combined with the lower costs of solar technology, raise expectations that this may soon change.

What does a solar project mean for Serbia?

For Serbia, this project means more than just meeting renewable energy goals. It promises energy independence, economic stability, and a sustainable energy supply. By creating a network of self-balancing solar plants, Serbia strengthens its energy security, attracts green investments, and aligns with global environmental standards.

How many solar plants are there in Serbia?

Serbia will soon see six large solar plants strategically positioned across the country. Key locations include Negotin, Zaječar, and Bošnjace. Together, these sites will provide 1 GW of solar energy capacity. Each plant will also have advanced battery storage systems totaling 200 MW, ensuring stable electricity flow across the national grid.
