The
JSC EPS Scientific Council has made a recommendation not to separate renewable
energy sources from the well-balanced generation in EPS and to provide for
local experts to continue with leading the company.
-
One of the major competitive advantages of EPS is particularly well-balanced
generation coming from both, coal fired and gas fired thermal power plants, and
generation of renewable energy from hydro power plants. Any separation of EPS parts
would depreciate the other two - this is a view of the Scientific Council
adopted at the third session, held on 8 May 2023 at the Faculty for Civil
Engineering in Belgrade.
The
Scientific Council notes, according to information it has, that EPS, having
been in the hands of local experts, current members of the Executive Board, has
transformed from an importer of electricity into an exporter in a very short
time, with a considerable share of “green” energy coming from hydro power
plants.
- These are remarkable results that confirm
that Electric Power Industry of Serbia may be managed in conformity with
interests of the Serbian citizens - as the members of the advisory body agreed.
At
the session, some possibilities for applying new technologies in EPS were
considered, and organization of scientific and expert work in studying
available technologies and identifying solutions appropriate to EPS, as well as
preparation of corresponding documents, was suggested.
Conclusions
made at the meetings in the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts regarding
nuclear energy and use of biomass, as well as possibilities for using biomass
in EPS were presented.
The
EPS Scientific Council was formed for promoting technical and information
development of EPS production and other capacities, for implementation of
environmental protection actions, energy efficiency and for creating necessary
conditions for sustainable development of the power system and execution of the
Strategy for the Serbian energy development.
