The government of Serbia has formally adopted amendments to its decree on the conditions of delivery and supply of electricity, due to come into force before the end of the month.
The updated decree, which sets out the terms for connection to the country’s electricity network, stipulates that connection studies for future variable renewable energy projects are postponed until September to December 2029.
A statement published by the Association Renewable Energy Sources of Serbia (RES Serbia) explains this changes the previous deadline under the regulation, which said connection studies would be prepared between July and October this year.
