Map of the 100 best locations for solar power plants in Serbia has been published

With Europe warming twice as fast as the global average, governments across the continent are looking for ways to accelerate their decarbonisation efforts, while meeting growing food- and energy needs.

As a contracting party of the Energy Community, Serbia should increase the share of renewable energy sources in its gross energy consumption to 40.7% by 2030, according to the project, launched by the international environmental protection organization The Nature Conservancy (TNC). Within the project, the researchers mapped the best locations for solar power plants in our country.

Following the success of a pilot study in Croatia, which identified enough low-impact land to meet half of Croatia's total national goal for solar and wind energy by 2030, The Nature Conservancy recently conducted a similar assessment of solar potential across Serbia.

This organization estimates that 100 selected locations could produce enough electricity to supply 200,000 or 10% of Serbian households, whereas annual carbon savings would amount to one million tons.
