Serbia planning to open auctions for wind and solar energy in November

The Ministry of Mining and Energy of Serbia plans to launch the second round of auctions for incentives for renewable energy sources in the fourth quarter. It is targeting November. The quotas would likely match the ministry’s three-year auction plan, Vladimir Spasic writes for the Balkan Green Energy News portal.

– Serbia is preparing the regulatory framework for its second auctions for wind and solar power. The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) provided technical assistance, but the ministry alone did a lot of work – advisor Rade Mrdak from the Ministry of Mining and Energy pointed out at the conference Businesses on the Road to Green Transition, organized by the American Chamber of Commerce in Serbia (AmCham).

In his words, the plan is to issue the public calls in November, in the last quarter of 2024, in line with the three-year auction plan.

– That’s what we want to do, but we’ll see how things go. November is set as the target – added Mrdak.

When asked about quotas, Mrdak told Balkan Green Energy News they would likely match the three-year plan, but that everything would be decided before the competitive process is launched.
