Battery storage as a revenue tool for renewable power in Southeast Europe

By 2025, battery storage in Southeast Europe stopped being discussed primarily as a grid-resilience accessory and started being deployed as a direct revenue instrument for renewable electricity producers. This shift did not come from policy ambition or climate targets, but from hard commercial pressure. Solar penetration reached levels where unprotected midday output destroyed price realisation, while […]

Battery storage in Serbia: From late starter to strategic energy powerhouse — system design, investor returns, TSO logic, competitiveness and policy path to 2035

Serbia stands at an inflection point in its electricity future. Decisions made between 2025 and 2030 will determine whether the country evolves into a modern, flexible, resilient energy economy capable of supporting industrial growth, renewable integration and market stability, or whether it remains structurally exposed to volatility, import dependence, fossil vulnerability and grid risk. At

Battery storage economics under EU market reform and spillover effects in SEE

Battery storage is emerging as one of the clearest winners of Europe’s evolving power market design. While attention often focuses on Germany, the Netherlands, or the UK, the spillover into Southeast Europe may be equally transformative, particularly for Hungary, Romania, Greece, and indirectly, Serbia and Bulgaria. The shift toward 15-minute settlement, combined with volatile renewable
