RES Serbia Analysis: In one year, the number of prosumers in Serbia increased by 61% 

The RES Serbia analysis shows that within one year, the number of prosumers in Serbia increased by 61%. The Prosumers Register of the Electricity Distribution of Serbia (Elektrodistribucija Srbije) recorded 5,832 prosumers with a total installed capacity exceeding 120.38 MW. The growth in both the number and installed capacity of prosumers is also reflected in the fact that in November last year, more than 74.8 MW was registered, which represents an increase of 61%. 

Total number of prosumers by category 

The number of prosumers in Serbia continues to grow, as shown by the fact that within one year their number increased by 61%.  

Currently, the Prosumers Register of the Electricity Distribution of Serbia lists 5,832 prosumers with a total installed capacity exceeding 120.38 MW. The growth trend is confirmed by the data that in November last year more than 74.8 MW was registered, which represents an increase of 61%. 

Among prosumers, households are the most numerous, with growth of more than 50% recorded over the past year. The RES Serbia analysis also shows that residents of Vojvodina are the most interested in producing electricity from renewable sources, while Preševo and Bosilegrad have registered their first prosumers. 

Interest among residential communities remains low. Over the course of one year, only three new residential communities, from Belgrade and Kragujevac, became prosumers, bringing the total to six. 

The largest individual prosumer across all categories is PEŠTAN DOO BUKOVIK, with a capacity of 8 MW. 

Vojvodina leads in the number of household prosumers

Over the past year, a significant increase in electricity prosumers has been observed, particularly in the Household category. Some local government units (LGUs) have registered their first prosumers, such as Preševo and Bosilegrad, yet disparities among statistical regions in terms of household prosumers remain evident. 

Households make up the largest group of prosumers, with a total of 4,248 currently registered and an installed capacity of 35.48 MW. Compared to November last year, when there were 2,811 households with 22.84 MW, this represents growth of 51.1% in the number of users and 55.3% in installed capacity. This surge indicates growing public interest in generating electricity from renewable sources, primarily through solar panels. 

Vojvodina leads by number of household prosumers, with 1,547 registered users, accounting for 36.42% of the total. It is followed by Eastern and Southern Serbia with 1,170 households (27.60%), Šumadija and Western Serbia with 787 (18.52%), and Belgrade with 742 households (17.47%). 

However, some municipalities, such as Crna Trava, Trgovište, and Bela Palanka, still do not have a single registered prosumer in this category. 

Prosumers Households by statistical regions 

The largest individual prosumer is PEŠTAN DOO BUKOVIK 

The highest total installed capacity among prosumers are from category ‘Other prosumers,’ currently numbering 1,578 with a combined installed capacity of 84.8 MW. 

The largest individual prosumer across all categories is PEŠTAN DOO BUKOVIK with a capacity of 8 MW, followed by Toyo Tire Serbia doo Inđija (7.5 MW) and Henkel Serbia doo Belgrade (5 MW). Other prosumers in this category have significantly smaller installed capacities, though several exceed 1 MW. 

The company NIS a.d. Novi Sad is recorded in the Prosumers Register a total of 76 times, with a combined installed capacity of 2,829.6 kW located at petrol stations across Serbia. 

Religious facilities are also included in the energy transition 

Educational institutions in Serbia are becoming interested in electricity generation. Twenty schools and seven kindergartens currently hold the status of prosumers. 

The total installed capacity of all school facilities registered in the Prosumers Register of the Electricity Distribution of Serbia amounts to 795.7 kW, while kindergartens account for 198.45 kW. 

In this way, educational institutions, alongside their key role in teaching and youth development, are becoming active promoters of sustainable development. They raise awareness of the importance of renewable energy sources and demonstrate how every institution can contribute to combating climate change and building a sustainable future. 

Interestingly, religious facilities are also actively involved in Serbia’s energy transition, with a total solar power capacity of 389.59 kW. The largest prosumer is the Serbian Orthodox Monastery Žiča, with an installed capacity of 50 kW. 

Analysis by installed power (in kW) 

In a year, only three new residential communities have become prosumers 

Over the past year, the number of residential communities registered as prosumers has increased from three to six, with a total installed capacity of 99.2 kW. After Subotica, Pancevo and Nis, which were the first to receive registered communities, this year two more housing communities from Belgrade and one from Kragujevac joined the list.
