The number of electricity prosumers in Serbia continues to grow rapidly, with data showing a 61% increase in just one year.
According to the Register of Prosumers maintained by Elektrodistribucija Srbije, there are currently 5,832 prosumers with a combined installed capacity exceeding 120.38 MW. The upward trend is evident when compared to last November, when prosumers had a total capacity of 74.8 MW—marking a 61% increase year-on-year.
Households make up the largest share of prosumers, with the number of residential users increasing by more than 50% over the past year. Data from OIE Serbia shows that Vojvodina residents are the most active in adopting renewable energy systems, while the municipalities of Preševo and Bosilegrad have recently registered their first prosumers. Interest among homeowners’ associations remains low: only three new residential buildings—in Belgrade and Kragujevac—became prosumers over the past year, bringing the total to just six.
The largest individual prosumer across all categories is PEŠTAN DOO Bukovik, with an installed capacity of 8 MW.
Vojvodina leads in household prosumers
Over the past year, Serbia has seen significant growth in the number of prosumers, especially within the household category. Some local governments, such as Preševo and Bosilegrad, have registered their first prosumers, though large disparities remain between statistical regions.
There are currently 4,248 household prosumers with a total installed capacity of 35.48 MW. Compared to November of last year—when there were 2,811 households with 22.84 MW—this represents a 51.1% increase in users and a 55.3% increase in capacity. This strong growth reflects rising public interest in producing renewable energy, primarily through solar panels.
Vojvodina leads with 1,547 household prosumers, accounting for 36.42% of the total. It is followed by:
- Eastern and Southern Serbia: 1,170 households (27.60%)
- Šumadija and Western Serbia: 787 households (18.52%)
- Belgrade: 742 households (17.47%)
However, some municipalities—such as Crna Trava, Trgovište, and Bela Palanka—still have no registered household prosumers.
