Serbia has more than quadrupled the renewable energy surcharge for end customers, to go into force next year, a document posted on the website of Serbia’s government showed on Tuesday.
The surcharge will amount to 0.437 dinars per kWh in 2021, the government said in a decree adopted on December 18.
The surcharge paid by end-customers in 2020 is 0.093 dinars per kWh.
According to Serbia’s energy law, all end customers are obliged to pay a fee for incentives to privileged electricity producers, except for the operators of reversible hydropower plants in pumping mode. The government should set the surcharge for the following year by the end of December.
Production of electricity from renewable energy sources is obligatory for companies wishing to receive the status of privileged energy producers in Serbia.
