Description

The overall objective of the project was to support Serbia in reforming its Energy Policy by meeting the EU Acquis and the upcoming obligations for the preparation of an Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan (INECP) through enhanced strategic planning. The project assisted the Ministry of Energy and Mining (MoME) in charge of energy policy to develop capacity in the field of energy planning and support implementation of the Energy Law.

The project included the design of an energy planning software tool on the basis of software tools which are used by the EU Comission. The tool was used for complex energy analysis and for simulating different scenarios and projections of Serbian energy sector development. The tool also served as an energy policy market analysis tool including the relationships between energy policy and technology assessment.

Capacity building activities on two major thematic areas were held as follows:

  • Area A – Energy policy, planning, model usage and scenario building
  • Area B - Cost Benefit Analysis and project prioritization process in the context of energy planning

The project also dealt with the preparation of a prioritized list of key infrastructure projects for the energy sector of Serbia, as well as with the preparation of the first Annual Report concerning the monitoring of Serbia’s Energy Strategy and Programme Implementation in accordance with the Energy Law.

3 main results were achieved through the project:

  • Result 1: Improved capacities for energy planning within MoME and Serbian Energy Companies through the development of a tool for system modelling and energy projections.
  • Result 2: Improved capacities of MoME and the Serbian Energy Companies for the preparation of relevant documents for energy planning, through realized trainings and through the preparation of relevant Reports.
  • Result 3: Improved capacities of MoME and the Serbian Energy Companies for the monitoring of energy policy, through the development of relevant strategic documents.
