Southeast Europe energy transition and grid modernization

Overview

During the CIGRE 2026 Paris Session, energy representatives and researchers from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Croatia focused on power grid modernization and energy transition in Southeast Europe.

Delegates from Bosnia and Herzegovina presented technical solutions for integrating renewable energy, such as photovoltaic plants, and reducing voltage oscillations. Montenegro’s Elektroprivreda Crne Gore emphasized the need for stable regulatory frameworks to support large-scale investments in modern infrastructure.

Research presented by Croatia’s Energetski institut Hrvoje Požar addressed prioritizing electricity infrastructure projects in Southeast Europe and utilizing EU funding for Western Balkan grid modernization.
