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, legacy thermal dispatch, and limited internal redundancy. As a result, grid-node screening must precede land acquisition, environmental scoping, and even preliminary yield assessment. The first-order filter is substation hierarchy. Projects […]

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, it is primarily an export competitiveness story. The change directly affects Serbian companies whose products fall under CBAM and whose carbon exposure is materially influenced by the

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. Unlike many non-EU exporters whose exposure to CBAM is marginal or indirect, Serbia’s export relationship with the EU is both deep and structurally concentrated in exactly

Electricity exports and CBAM in South-East Europe: Measured impacts, verification processes and investment risks in Serbia

The application of the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism to electricity imports from South-East Europe introduces a quantifiable financial and structural risk to the region’s power sector precisely at the point when large-scale capital deployment is required for decarbonisation and grid integration. In Serbia, electricity is not only a domestic utility service but a traded commodity

CBAM cost exposure and compliance execution in EU–Serbia industrial supply chains

For EU industrial groups with Serbian subsidiaries, CBAM cannot be managed as a peripheral customs compliance task. It requires a group-level execution architecture that clearly allocates responsibility, controls data quality at source, and shields the importing entity from avoidable carbon cost inflation. The core principle is simple: CBAM risk must be governed where emissions are generated, not where

CBAM impact on Serbian industrial exports – implications for EU importers and EU-owned local operations

The full financial application of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism from 2026 transforms Serbia’s role in European industrial supply chains. For EU industrial groups importing carbon-intensive products from Serbia, or producing inside Serbia through local subsidiaries and exporting back into the Union, CBAM is no longer a distant regulatory concept. It becomes a measurable, auditable, and recurring

Independent technical preparation as a capacity multiplier for EU CBAM verifiers

Independent technical preparation supporting EU-accredited verifiers, EU importers, and non-EU exporters is increasingly becoming a structural enabler of CBAM delivery rather than a peripheral service. As verification volumes rise and the geographical footprint of CBAM installations expands beyond the EU, verifiers are confronting a practical constraint that accreditation alone does not solve: the absence of

Engineering services as strategic infrastructure: How EU accession, banking discipline and private capital are re-shaping Serbia’s engineering economy

Engineering-related business services sit at the core of Serbia’s EU-accession economy, yet they remain structurally under-analysed because they do not present themselves as a headline sector. They do not dominate GDP tables, they do not absorb large volumes of bank credit, and they do not announce billion-euro projects under their own name. And yet, by

Skills as infrastructure: Industrial training, certification and simulation services serving Europe’s workforce gap

By 2025, Europe’s industrial challenge stopped being framed as a shortage of capital or technology and became unmistakably a shortage of certified, deployable skills. Manufacturing plants, energy assets, grids, and infrastructure systems were increasingly constrained not by equipment availability, but by the lack of operators, technicians, and engineers authorised to run them under tightening regulatory regimes.

Investment under the microscope: Technical due diligence and asset intelligence as a European capital support export

By 2025, European capital deployment into industry, energy, and infrastructure had become more selective, not because opportunities disappeared, but because technical risk moved to the centre of valuation. Assets are older, systems are more complex, regulation is denser, and performance assumptions are scrutinised more aggressively by lenders, insurers, and investment committees. In this environment, technical due
