When Serbia introduced dual carbon taxation starting in 2026, the immediate debate focused on numbers. At €4 per ton of CO₂ equivalent, many industrial operators initially treated the levy a
South-East Europe as Europe’s industrial pressure valve: Metallurgy, materials and engineering in one system
Europe’s metallurgical and critical raw materials supply chain is not being dismantled, nor is it being rebuilt in the way official strategies describe. Instead, it is being re-zoned. Carbon, cost and
Power systems digital engineering and grid intelligence: How Serbia is becoming Europe’s execution backbone
Europe’s electricity system is entering a phase where engineering capacity, not capital or political will, has become the primary constraint. Across the continent, transmission and distribution operat
Power systems digital engineering and grid intelligence: Why Serbia is emerging as Europe’s execution backplane
Europe’s electricity system is entering a phase where engineering capacity, not capital or political will, has become the primary constraint. Across the continent, transmission and distribution operat
Serbia as Europe’s energy shock absorber: How South-East Europe carries the burden of the core markets
Europe’s energy transition is entering a phase where ambition, capital and policy alignment are no longer the binding constraints. The limiting factor has become execution. Across power generation, gr
Applied energy engineering: The missing near-sourcing link in Europe
Applied energy engineering completes the near-sourcing picture for Europe’s energy transition, filling a structural gap that hardware manufacturing, raw-materials access and capital mobilisation alone
Applied energy engineering as Europe’s missing near-sourcing layer

Industrial cybersecurity engineering (OT / SCADA): Why Serbia is becoming Europe’s defensive execution layer
Industrial cybersecurity has moved decisively out of the IT department and into the operational core of Europe’s energy and industrial systems. Power grids, substations, pipelines, refineries, water s
Energy near-sourcing as Germany’s industrial pressure valve: How Serbia fits into power, grid, equipment and services value chains
Germany’s energy transition has entered a phase where technical feasibility is no longer the binding constraint. The bottleneck is industrial execution under cost, time and risk pressure. Power genera
Quality before concrete: Governing procurement and equipment compliance in heavy industry and renewable projects
As heavy-industry facilities and large renewable-energy projects scale across Serbia and the wider region, procurement has emerged as one of the most underestimated determinants of bankability. Invest
