Belgrade, 26 December 2025

On the session held on 25 December 2025, the Council of the Energy Agency of the Republic of Serbia has adopted a decision granting approval to the amendments to the Electricity Market Code prepared by the transmission system operator of the Republic of Serbia, EMS AD.

The main reason for adopting the new Electricity Market Code is alignment with the new legislative framework, as well as the improvement of processes and the elimination of shortcomings recognised in previous practice.

The new code improves the functioning of the balancing market through clearer regulation of the participation of balancing service providers, which may include aggregators, renewable energy producers, storage facilities, active customers and other resources capable of providing balancing services.

The method for calculating deviations of balancing service providers’ bids from assigned values has been specified, the methodology for calculating financial risk and determining the acceptable deviation of a balancing group has been revised, as well as the provisions relating to system, i.e. ancillary services procured on market principles.
