Power utilities across the Western Balkans are faced with a string of major challenges, including the energy transition, which requires phasing out coal and moving
Power utilities across the Western Balkans are faced with a string of major challenges, including the energy transition, which requires phasing out coal and moving towards cleaner energy. Some of them, such as Elektrani na Severna Makedonija (ESM), are also struggling with outdated thermal power plants and coal shortages. However
Countries in the Western Balkan region have great unexploited potential of renewable energy sources (RES), which could by efficient use significantly contribute to
Serbia plans to build solar power plants, wind farms, and pumped-storage hydropower plants, but also gas-fired power plants, energy storage batteries, and hydrogen facilities, in order to implement the energy
Representatives of three power utilities from the Western Balkans presented investment plans and activities aimed at aligning their portfolios with decarbonization goals,
Wind energy integration into power systems presents inherent unpredictability because of the intermittent nature of wind energy. The penetration rate determines how wind energy integration affects system reliability and stability [4].According to a reliability aspect, at a fairly low penetration rate, net-load variations are equivalent to current load variations [5], and
E2S Power, a joint venture between Swiss SS&A Power Group and German company WIKA, has presented its innovative thermal energy storage technology, TWEST, which provides a solution for intermittent production from renewable energy sources and enables thermal power plants to switch to CO2-free operation. The presentation was held at E2S
Background The main goal of the paper is to review the existing state and propose a model solution for the introduction of the waste-to-energy concept in the Republic of Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, as these
Energy storage could be the key component for efficient power systems transition from fossil fuels to renewable sources. The core objective of this paper is to investigate the
On the example of power storage, the workshop contributed to an exchange on methodology for the quantitative evaluation of energy storage benefits and to a feedback lessons learnt in different regions of the EU with regard to RES-E support policy, RES-E market integration, and efficient market liberalisation and cross border aspects.

Representatives of three power utilities from the Western Balkans presented investment plans and activities aimed at aligning their portfolios with decarbonization goals, and they highlighted the importance of new technologies for the energy sector transformation.
As a partial solution to manage the energy storage technology with the help of wind-powered, pumped hydro energy storage system (PHESS) on the island of Gran Canaria (Canary Islands) was discussed by Padrón et al. [106] They developed the model for two of the largest existing reservoirs on the island used as storage reservoirs with three 54 MW
The business case for electricity storage in battery energy storage systems (BESS) is beginning to emerge, especially for Bulgaria. With about 1.7 GW of grid-connected capacity in mid-2023, solar power contributed up to 40% of the electricity supply, even if
The Balkan Peninsula is widely acknowledged as one of the centers of European biodiversity and a major glacial refugium for plant species. Its extensive geographic heterogeneity and diverse mosaic of habitats, coupled with relatively high environmental stability over long periods, have enabled the diversification of lineages and simultaneously fostered the long-term survival of
