Energy Security and Sustainable Growth in the Balkans
We have witnessed constant changes in the power sector over the last years. Supply security, limited transmission capacity, dwindling production capacity surplus, environmental concerns coupled with EU Emission Trading, soaring prices of energy sources and high growth in energy demand have been the main drivers of increasingly volatile long-term wholesale electricity prices. These reflect in the investments in new capacities, shedding a new light especially on use of renewable energy sources. The renewable energy potential in the Balkan Region is great yet underexploited. The knowledge and experience in renewable energy is crucial for achieving independence and growth of national economies as well as for research and technological development of the European industry. Its efficient use could significantly contribute to security of supply within the region and in the wider neighborhood.
