Serbia advances nuclear energy plans with new legal framework and expert coalition

Serbia is moving forward with its nuclear energy ambitions by amending its Energy Law and partnering with the Vinča Institute for Nuclear Sciences to develop a specialized workforce. A new division within the Ministry of Mining and Energy will lead the national nuclear strategy.

To support this initiative, the Ministry signed a Memorandum of Understanding in 2023 uniting five ministries, over 20 universities, research institutes, and energy firms—mobilizing both domestic and international expertise.

A Preliminary Technical Study on the peaceful use of nuclear energy is now in its final review phase. The study will guide decision-making by outlining potential market scenarios and technology options. Serbia’s entire approach is aligned with International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) standards, ensuring compliance with global safety and regulatory norms.
