Serbia plans to start importing electricity from Azerbaijan beginning in January
BAKU. Nov 28 (Interfax) – Serbia plans to import electricity from Azerbaijan as of the beginning of 2023, Serbian Mining and Energy Minister Dubravka Dedovic said in a statement.
"Serbia should start importing electricity from Azerbaijan as of January if all the prerequisites are met," Dedovich told the Serbian newspaper Vecherniye Novosti.
Djedovich added that negotiations were underway on the remaining issues related to transmitting electricity from Azerbaijan via Turkey and Bulgaria.
Following a telephone conversation between Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev and Serbia’s President Alexander Vucic in August 2022, the presidential office of Serbia said that Belgrade would be prepared to buy electricity from Azerbaijan on favorable terms.
Vucic later reported appealing to the Turkish side for assistance in the matter of importing electricity from Azerbaijan, which the Serbian president estimated at about 2 GWh.
Azerbaijan exported more than 1.6 GWh of electricity in 2021. Aliyev said earlier that Azerbaijan planned to boost electricity exports primarily to Europe.
