With our roots in Serbia and eyes on the world, our mission is to drive the transition to sustainable energy sources, particularly in heat and power applications. We utilize novel thermal energy storage solutions to bridge the gap between energy generation and demand, facilitating greater integration of renewable sources into the grid.
With the proposed amendments to the Law on the Use of Renewable Energy Sources, Serbia will promote the introduction of energy storage facilities, Minister of Mining and Energy Dubravka Đedović said.
In order to ensure the power system balance between the energy generated by the power plants and the energy needed by consumers, it is possible to rely on pumped-storage hydroelectric power plants for system balancing. They consume excess electricity during reduced consumption and deliver electricity into the network during high consumption periods. Pumped
In an interview with Politika, Đedović Handanović explained that the project''s potential impact hinges on its capacity and whether it would function as seasonal energy storage. She believes that Đerdap 3 could significantly enhance Serbia''s energy security for the next 60
Serbia has taken a bold step toward renewable energy with a newly signed agreement to build 1 GW of self-balancing solar power plants. This groundbreaking project, led by the Hyundai Engineering and UGT Renewables consortium, marks a significant shift in Serbia''s energy strategy.
Seasonal heat storage is a very cost-effective way to make use of surplus electric power generated by wind farms in Denmark. "Wind energy has already contributed up to 40 % to electricity generation in a year and we want to combine this rich intermittent energy source with seasonal storage via heat pumps," Nielsen said.
It stores energy during one seasonal condition (summer or winter) and discharges the stored energy in the other seasonal condition, depending on the load demand. Seasonal storage is, therefore, closely related to seasonal variations in temperature, wind speed and solar irradiation as these mainly determine the need for heat- and cooling demand
The Serbian Government has approved the development of a spatial plan for constructing large-capacity self-balancing solar power plants paired with battery energy storage systems. This ambitious initiative will encompass areas in the cities of Zajecar and Leskovac, as well as the municipalities of Bujanovac, Lebane, Negotin, and Odzaci.
Serbia has committed to producing almost one in two megawatt-hours of electricity from clean sources in 2030, making energy storage extremely important, she said. Companies from China, in her words, have developed compressed air
Research progress of seasonal thermal energy storage technology based on supercooled phase change materials. Weisan Hua, Jiahao Zhu, in Journal of Energy Storage, 2023. 2 Types of seasonal thermal energy storage. Seasonal thermal energy storage is an effective way to improve the comprehensive energy utilization rate. Solar energy and natural cold heat can be efficiently
3 天之前· The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has announced the approval of funds for the construction of a solar-thermal power plant in Novi Sad. According to the documentation reviewed by Biznis.rs, the loan will be used to finance the construction of a solar-thermal plant featuring 38,600 square metres of collector fields, seasonal heat storage,
Region: Bulgaria and Italy strengthen energy cooperation with focus on renewables, hydrogen and market integration; Serbia''s energy strategy: Transitioning to renewables and reducing fossil fuel dependence by 2040; Romania hits record electricity imports as winter consumption rises
Serbia offers significant investment potential for renewable energy integration and battery storage capacities to balance new renewable energy capacity on the grid. Here are key points highlighting the investment opportunities in these areas:
The concept of seasonal thermal energy storage (STES), which uses the excess heat collected in summer to make up for the lack of heating in winter, is also known as long-term thermal storage [4]. Seasonal thermal energy storage was proposed in the United States in the 1960s, and research projects were carried out in the 1970s.

With the proposed amendments to the Law on the Use of Renewable Energy Sources, Serbia will promote the introduction of energy storage facilities, Minister of Mining and Energy Dubravka Đedović said. Upon request from the country''s transmission and distribution system operators, investors will be able to avoid delaying the connection to the
Li: Serbia''s rapid economic growth will require more renewable energy. China''s Ambassador to Serbia Li Ming said Serbia has rapid economic growth, requiring more renewable energy. Chinese companies are dominant in the sector, he added. The ambassador said compressed air energy storage technology is highly progressive and available.

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.
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.
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.
An interconnected grid also allows Serbia to better distribute energy, meeting future demands while maintaining grid stability. Looking ahead, this solar initiative will generate jobs, stimulate economic growth, and position Serbia as a leader in the regional green energy market.
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.
The European energy storage market is booming with Germany leading residential adoption (+58% YoY) thanks to €500/kWh subsidies. Italy's new tax credits drive 5.2GWh commercial deployments, while UK grid-scale projects exceed 8GWh with 2-hour duration systems. Key selection criteria: German-certified safety (VDE-AR-E 2510), 10+ year warranties, and VPP readiness. Top-performing products include Sonnen's hybrid inverters (98% efficiency) and BYD's Blade Battery (12,000 cycles @80% DoD). For snowy regions like Scandinavia, consider Huawei's -30°C compatible systems. France mandates carbon footprint declarations - Sungrow's ISO-14067 certified solutions gain preference.
For European homeowners, 5-10kWh systems with 3-phase compatibility are ideal. Top picks: 1) Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5kWh, 97% round-trip efficiency) for smart home integration; 2) LG Chem RESU Prime for compact urban installations; 3) SMA Sunny Boy Storage for retrofit projects. Critical features: EU-made battery cells (exempt from CBAM tariffs), dynamic tariff optimization (like Octopus Energy integration), and fire-safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Southern Europe demands 85%+ depth of discharge capability, while Nordic markets require -25°C operation. Always verify CEI 0-21 compliance for Italian grid connection and EnWG certification for German feed-in.
