Designing the green materials economy: Serbia’s strategic rise in glass, specialty materials and selective chemicals

Europe’s industrial transformation between 2026 and 2030 will not be powered solely by large infrastructure projects, renewable assets, electrification systems or manufacturing upgrades. At the heart of this transformation lies something quieter but equally decisive — materials intelligence. The Green Transition is fundamentally a materials transition. It demands new generations of specialty glasses, performance coatings, engineered […]

Building Europe’s industrial engines: Serbia’s machinery manufacturing breakthrough 2026–2030

Europe’s industrial competitiveness in the late 2020s will not be defined solely by policy frameworks, capital flows or digital transformation rhetoric; it will depend fundamentally on whether the continent can secure sufficient capacity to design, build, adapt and maintain the machinery that underpins its factories, infrastructure, transportation, energy systems and emerging technology ecosystems. Machinery manufacturing

Beyond steel: How Serbia can become Europe’s precision ceramics and advanced materials hub

Europe’s industrial future is no longer defined solely by steel, copper, machinery and conventional manufacturing assets. The real heart of technological competitiveness increasingly lies in advanced materials, and within that spectrum, few sectors are as strategically potent as advanced ceramics, specialty composites, high-performance refractories, functional technical materials and engineered specialty inputs for high-stress industrial environments. These

From foundry to factory floor: Serbia’s rise as a high-value precision metallurgy hub in Europe 2026–2030

Europe’s industrial machine is built not only on spectacular technologies, world-class engineering brands and advanced automation systems, but on the relentless precision of its foundational components. Beneath every advanced manufacturing platform, transport system, renewable installation, energy infrastructure asset or industrial machine lies a universe of forged parts, precision castings, specialised metal components and metallurgically disciplined

Forging the green transition: How Serbia is emerging as Europe’s aluminium and steel fabrication hub 2026–2030

Europe is entering a decisive industrial phase where climate objectives, competitiveness concerns and strategic resilience must coexist in a single coherent manufacturing logic. The continent’s decarbonisation pathway demands vast volumes of aluminium and steel-intensive products: lightweight components for low-carbon transport, structural fabrications for wind and solar infrastructure, precision parts for advanced machinery, high-spec sheets and

Wiring Europe: Serbia’s bid to power the EU’s next infrastructure wave

Europe is entering the most capital-intensive phase of its electrification century. Record deployment of renewables, accelerating e-mobility diffusion, exponential demand expansion in data centres, hydrogen pilots moving toward industrial scale, and the pressing need to reinforce ageing transmission and distribution infrastructure are converging into one structural reality: Europe requires unprecedented volumes of copper-based products, high-performance

Romania: Tarnita-Lapustesti pump-storage project gains momentum with EDF partnership

After decades of delays and repeated restarts, Romania’s long-planned Tarnita-Lapustesti pump-storage hydropower project is moving forward. Hidroelectrica and French energy company EDF have agreed to jointly develop the 1,000 MW facility, marking the most concrete step yet in reviving one of the country’s largest energy infrastructure projects. Under the plan, Hidroelectrica and EDF Power Solutions

North Macedonia approves smaller electricity price hikes for 2026 households

Households in North Macedonia will face higher electricity bills in 2026, but the final adjustments approved by the regulator are significantly smaller than those initially requested by the supplier. After reviewing EVN Home’s proposal, the Regulatory Commission for Energy (RKE) revised the planned increases across all consumption blocks. Instead of the nearly 8% rise proposed

Greece: Electricity retail market shows stability with PPC maintaining lead

A recent assessment by energy regulator RAAEY indicates that Greece’s electricity retail market remained largely stable between May and October, with only modest shifts in supplier positions across customer categories and voltage levels. PPC slightly increased its dominance, reaching just over 72% of nationwide customers by October. This represents a small gain compared to late
