Serbia commissioned around 61MW of solar capacity in the first half of 2026, according to RES Serbia, lifting cumulative solar capacity to about 379MW. Prosumer solar capacity rose from 125.9MW at the start of the year to 147MW, while solar plants connected to the distribution grid increased by 40.6MW to 232.82MW. Demand from households and businesses seeking lower energy costs remains strong, but permitting and grid connection challenges weighed on project progress. In May, the government postponed new grid connection studies for variable renewable energy projects until 2029-2030, creating a key bottleneck for investors.
