The collapse of the European electricity market: Electric shock
Gas and electricity costs have risen by an average of 6,5 times in just one year. There is no country in Europe that does not feel the catastrophic consequences of such an energy shock. With such high electricity and gas prices, Europe is threatened by deindustrialization, because factories will move to those parts of the world where the price of energy is affordable.

This is how we got into a situation where EPS, instead of investing and building a new Štavalj thermal power plant, throws that money at importing electricity. At the same time, no one can guarantee that Serbia will have enough electricity during the winter
