Technical explainer for investors on flexibility requirements in a high-RES Serbian grid
For investors evaluating Serbia’s renewable market, the most critical variable shaping project viability over the next decade is not the installed capacity of wind or solar, but the system’s ability t
Gas or green electricity: how carbon pricing and power costs reshape Serbian industry to 2030 and 2035
For energy-intensive industries in Serbia, the traditional question of whether gas or electricity is cheaper is no longer the decisive one. The decisive variable over the next decade will be carbon. A
Serbia’s fabrication clusters: the Cacak–Uzice–Kraljevo corridor as Europe’s next specialised industrial zone
Industrial competitiveness is rarely distributed evenly across a country. It concentrates in corridors where skills, suppliers, logistics and institutional memory reinforce one another over decades. I
Renewable-energy manufacturing opportunities: Serbia’s role in Europe’s energy-transition supply chain
Europe’s energy transition is not only an energy-system transformation but a manufacturing one. The deployment of renewable generation, grids and storage requires an immense volume of fabricated compo
Serbia as the EU’s engineering-integrated fabrication hub
European manufacturing is undergoing a structural reorganisation in which engineering proximity, design flexibility and production responsiveness are replacing pure labour arbitrage as decisive compet
The rise of Serbian mechanical and electrical R&D centres for EU industry
While fabrication remains the most visible manifestation of Serbia’s industrial capability, a quieter but equally significant transformation is underway in engineering and R&D. Serbia is increasin
Energy costs and manufacturing in Serbia
As the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) moves from reporting into its financial phase, manufacturing competitiveness for the EU market is being structurally redefined. Cost is no longer measu
Serbia’s manufacturing pivot 2030: fabrication, processing and the rise of an EU-aligned near-source industrial base
Serbia is entering a phase in which manufacturing, fabrication and processing are beginning to matter not just as legacy industries, but as strategic assets in the emerging European production map. Wi
