A full liberalisation of Serbia's electricity market, allowing citizens
to choose their suppliers in an open market, will begin from the New
Year, with the liberalisation of the gas market set to start as well.
Despite
the market liberalisation, small electricity consumers will retain the
right to guaranteed supplies from the Serbian electric power company EPS
at regulated prices set by the Energy Agency of the Republic of Serbia
(AERS).
Serbia's EPS Director Aleksandar Obradovic has said that he
does not expect rival companies to win over household consumers as the
EPS electricity price is 30 percent lower than the market price in the
region.
The liberalisation of the Serbian electricity market began in
2012 for high-voltage consumers and in 2013 for medium-voltage
consumers reports Tanjug.
