The cooperation between the expertise and science in the time of
energy transition, and especially in the time of the ongoing largest energy
crisis, is necessary for the entire energy sector, and especially for the
Electric Power Industry of Serbia. In the previous period, a series of
preparations were conducted, and today Mr. Miroslav Tomašević, acting director
of PE EPS adopted the decision on the formation and manner of operation of PE
EPS Expert Council and expert bodies of the council, as well as the decision to
establish PE EPS Scientific Council. The operation of the two bodies represents
the basis for firm connection between expertise and science, as well as for the
implementation of innovative solutions, which is very significant for the
strategic development of EPS.
The Expert Council is a permanent advisory body of the PE EPS
director that reviews the justification and acceptability of studies, projects,
investment and technical documentation, etc. Permanent members of the Expert
Council are PE EPS executive directors, as well as assistants and advisors to
the PE EPS director. Associated members of the Expert Council will be, if
necessary, other employees of EPS, as well as those who are not employed in
EPS, and with their expertise knowledge, experience, professional authority and
recognized results, they can contribute to the achievement of business goals in
the best possible way. The Expert Council has narrower organizational units in
charge of certain areas as well, namely the business council, legal counsel,
economic and financial affairs council, technical and technological council, as
well as the council for strategic and market development.
EPS Scientific Council will review and suggest implementation of
modern scientific achievements for intensive and dynamic development of EPS in
order to meet the conditions for increased share of renewable energy sources in
EPS power portfolio and realization of the strategy for power sector
development. This council will consist of the employees who have acquired or
will acquire scientific titles in scientific institutions, as well as experts not
working in EPS, and who may contribute with their knowledge and scientific
results in the institutions of national interest, scientific institutes and
higher educational institutions in creating and implementing the programs and
plans for development and achievement of the strategic goals of EPS. The
operation of the Scientific Council will be organized in smaller organizational
sections – internal scientific council, external scientific council and
scientific board for innovative solutions.
