Report on hydropower development projects in the Balkans

The team of analysts from Vostock Capital has prepared the report on the results of the study devoted to hydropower development projects in the Balkans.

Undoubtedly, hydropower will play a great role in changing the energy matrix of Eastern Europe. It is destined to improve energy security & efficiency of the region, to replace depreciated and carbon-intensive power generation thus reaching sustainable energy goals and high environmental EU standards.

In general, most of the hydropower capacities in the Balkans were developed before 1990, and to date hydropower accounts for about 50% of region’s installed capacity. Thus, apart from greenfield hydropower projects, reconstruction of depreciated HPPs should be put in place.

It is obvious that the further tapping of hydro resources should strictly stick to high environmental standards with minimal effect on the environment. This requires high-end technologies and solutions which would mitigate all the risks to the fullest.

Report provides:

· An  overview of hydropower capacity  in the Balkans per country

· List of the  most promising hydropower development projects  in the Balkan region per country

· RESULTS OF QUESTIONNAIRE-BASED SURVEY about the potential of hydropower industry of the Balkan region feat more than 120 experts (Request the report HERE)

Please note that the prospects and development strategies of the hydropower industry in the Balkan region will be further discussed within the 3rd  International Summit and Exhibition “Hydropower Balkans”.

3rd Annual International Investment Summit and Exhibition “Hydropower Balkans 2019”(7-8 November 2019, Belgrade, Serbia) is a dedicated platform bringing together ministers, major investors, decision-makers of flagship hydropower plants, and investment project initiators, as well as regulators, in a concerted effort to efficiently execute key projects for HPP construction and modernization all over the Balkan region.
