Serbia’s Growing Distributed Generation Raises Need for Local Grid Flexibility

Serbia’s expansion of distributed power generation is creating reverse-flow constraints in parts of the electricity distribution network, increasing the need for mechanisms that can manage local electricity surpluses. Elektrodistribucija Srbije (EDS) technical system director said limits at parts of the distribution-to-transmission interface currently restrict reverse electricity flows to around 16 MW, while expected flows in areas including Banat and southern Serbia could exceed 30 MW. EDS has around 498 power plants with combined capacity of about 540 MW connected to…
