The total installed power of all prosumers who have all the necessary permits and the status in the official register of Elektrodistribucija Srbije (EDS) has exceeded 50 MW and thereby become a very important factor in the energy transition of Serbia. This important turning point points to an increasing acceptance of renewable energy sources in the country.
A majority of over 3,000 prosumers consists of households, of which there are 2,215. The lowest number of prosumers are in the category of residential communities – only three buildings have opted for this form of power generation. The second most numerous group, but by far the first one when it comes to the installed power, are the prosumers in the category of Other Producers-Consumers. There are 793 of them with an installed power of 32.8 MW.
Of the total of the 50.9 MW listed in the register, 32.8 MW pertains to the economy, whereas nearly 18 MW is comprised of solar prosumers on household rooftops. This distribution of power points to the thorough presence of solar energy in both the industry and in houses throughout the country. Only three residential units, with a total power of 69.5 kW, are prosumers, which emphasizes the trend of power generation on a local level, Ekapija reports.
