In modern data-center development, Operations and Maintenance outcomes are no longer determined after commissioning. They are largely locked in during the Front-End Design (FED) phase. As data centers
Data center operations and maintenance as a multi-layered infrastructure ecosystem: The central role of the Owner’s Engineer
The modern data center no longer ends at commissioning. Once energized, it enters a long operational phase in which value creation, risk control, and asset performance are determined not by constructi
Serbia as a data center platform: Owner’s Engineer perspective from FED to long-term operations

Serbia as a strategic data center platform on the EU border
Serbia is emerging as one of the most structurally compelling data-center locations in wider Europe, not because it follows the traditional Western European hyperscale playbook, but because it sits at
CBAM system engineering: Pre-verification procedures, activities, and value creation for EU exporters and verifiers
As CBAM moves into its financial enforcement phase, pre-verification is no longer understood as preparatory documentation support. It has evolved into a structured engineering discipline that precedes
CBAM procedures explained, process engineering for pre verification by EU verifiers and EU importers
Pre-verification technical support is not only compatible with CBAM’s framework, it is rapidly becoming a de facto second-layer requirement driven by EU buyers, their CBAM declarants, and their appoin
How Brussels’ post-CBAM industrial policy rewrites Serbia’s energy, steel and trade economics
The EU’s emerging steel strategy beyond CBAM marks a structural turning point for Serbia’s industrial and energy position vis-à-vis the European Union. While CBAM itself has already focused attention
Serbia renewable project siting: Grid-node screening and developer–lender checklist aligned with EMS and local permitting practices
In Serbia, viable renewable siting begins with transmission reality, not resource theory. EMS operates a compact, highly loaded system whose flexibility margin is constrained by cross-border flows, le
CBAM electricity reform and what it means for Serbian exporters from 2026
The European Commission’s proposal to revise how emissions are calculated for imported electricity under the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism is not, in practice, an energy-market story. For Serbia,
Serbia’s CBAM-exposed exports to the European Union in 2025: Volumes, value and the emerging Carbon customs burden
By the end of 2025, Serbia entered the decisive pre-implementation phase of the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism with a trade structure that leaves little room for complacency. Unli
