Up to 200 MW of battery storage will be developed across the sites. Image: Ministry of Mining and Energy, Tanjug Plans for 1 GW of new solar in Serbia are set to go ahead after the signing of an implementation agreement.
The contract is the latest in a line of solar projects backed by Serbia’s Ministry of Mining and Energy this year, which includes plans for a 1 GW solar panel factory and another 500 MW of solar. Figures from the International Renewable Energy Agency state Serbia had deployed a total 137 MW of solar by the end of last year.
Serbia currently gets more than 60% of its electricity from fossil fuels. The contract is the latest in a line of solar projects backed by Serbia’s Ministry of Mining and Energy this year, which includes plans for a 1 GW solar panel factory and another 500 MW of solar.
As a first step, in August 2023, the Serbian Government published a public call for a strategic partner to develop a 1 gigawatt (GW) solar PV power plant, together with a minimum of 200 MW of storage. The government also announced that it will publish a similar call for the development of a 1 GW wind power plant by the end of this year.
The Ministry of Mining and Energy has announced a €15 billion investment plan for the electricity sector in next several years, expecting to reach more than 3 GW of renewable energy production plants. The main players and investors in the Serbian Energy Sector are:
The government has formed a working group to organize the tender, select successful bids, and negotiate with the chosen strategic partner. According to the Association of Renewable Energy Sources of Serbia, the country has installed around 50 MW of solar. However, that figure is not exact, as there is no official registry at this stage.
