Renewable Energy Consumption: Serbia

Analysis# Serbia Renewable Energy Consumption Serbia's renewable energy consumption reached 27.2% of total energy in 2021, matching its all-time peak. This represents substantial progress since 1990, when renewables accounted for just 14.5% of the energy mix—an 87.6% increase over three decades. The nation's renewable share nearly doubled from its low point of 14% in 2007, demonstrating a fundamental shift in energy strategy over the past 15 years. The most significant acceleration occurred between 2019 and 2021, when renewable consumption jumped from 21.4% to 27.2%—a gain of 5.8 percentage points in just two years. Prior to 2019, growth remained modest and uneven, fluctuating between 19.5% and 23.2% from 2012 to 2018. Serbia's recent trajectory suggests a strengthened commitment to renewable energy integration, with momentum building toward further expansion of its clean energy infrastructure.
