Serbia will increase the energy it receives from the sun and wind 66 times

By 2050, Serbia will have installed 26.5 gigawatts (GW) of solar and wind power, which is 66 times more than today, according to the Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan (INEKP).

Although the adoption of this plan is delayed, it will define the key goals, procedures and parameters of the energy transition in Serbia.

According to INEKP, the plan is to reduce total greenhouse gas emissions by 40 percent by 2030, and by over 70 percent by 2050 (compared to 1990).

The scenarios from the document show how this result is achieved primarily through the transition in the electricity and thermal energy sector, which is today the dominant emitter in Serbia.

Currently, we have negligible amounts of solar energy.

Today, Serbia has about 400 megawatts (MW) of wind capacity and a negligible amount of solar (about 59 MW in total, connected in various forms only to local distribution networks).

By 2030, INEKP plans 1,770 MW of wind and 1,730 MW of solar.

By 2050, these figures are 8,000 MW (wind) and even 18,500 MW (solar).

INEKP does not only include the transition to renewable energy sources. For example, one of the predicted transition paths concerns the use of electric cars.

INEKP: there are about 45,000 electric vehicles in Serbia by 2030, but with a plan for as many as two million vehicles in 2050.
