1.SERBIO
Established in 2012 with support of Royal Norwegian Embassy
Mission: contribution to sustainable development of bioenergy sector in Serbia.
Vision: Energy efficient Serbia with sustainable share of biomass in energy balance.
Goals:
• Market and favorable business environment for sustainable bioenergy Sector
• Improvement of information exchange on biomass utilization possibilities
• Public-private partnership development in biomass utilization
• Improvement of knowledge, research and development of utilization of
Members:
1. NGOs, CA, PFOAs and other interested in RES utilization development
2. Companies active in biomass production and related services
3. Individual experts in biomass utilization
Financing: Membership fees, projects, services
Activities: Information dissemination, consulting, marketing services, project
implementation, lobbying, event organization

Action plan for renewable energy 2012
Strategy for energy development of Serbia until 2025 (draft)
Goal 2020 – 27% renewables
2009 – 21% - 2.107Mtoe
2020 – 27% - 2.789Mtoe
Renewables increase 0.629Mtoe
Several ongoing CHP and DH
projects
In electricity:
New 100MW biomass CHP
New 30MW biogas CHP
Biomass is mostly used in:
Wood/agro pellet/briquette
Chipboard
Firewood
Energy production in industry
Heating and cooling:
Additional 0.074Mtoe biomass
Additional 0.01Mtoe of biogas
Various issues in biomass supply
and project development
Feed in tariffs:
Biomass CHP lower than 1MW = 0.1326EUR/kWh
Biomass CHP 1-10MW = 0.1382EUR/kWh
Biomass CHP over 10MW = 0.0822EUR/kWh
Biogas CHP up to 0.2MW = 0.1566 EUR/kWh
Biogas CHP 0.2-1MW = 0.1649EUR/kWh
Biogas CHP over 1 MW = 0.1231EUR/kWh
3. Biomass Logistic and Trade Center
Idea: To establish the center for distribution and marketing of solid wood fuels
Concept: Regional service center for firewood, wood chips and other solid wood fuels managed by local
forest owners and entrepreneurs
Goals/benefits:
• Transparent mechanism in wood trade
• Strengthening of local economy: employment in rural areas for social groups (elders, low level of
education, etc)
• Stabilization of biomass fuel market
• Extension services for forest owners and entrepreneurs
Until now no BLTCs in Serbia!
3. Biomass Logistic and Trade Center
Location: Majdanpek municipality
Why Majdanpek:
• Forest cover more than 70% - 63,000ha
• Potential yield over 130,000m3 – underutilized
• 1/3 private forests
• Municipality has unstable heat delivery –
resulted in population using firewood in buildings in urban areas
From 2009 Majdanpek started initiative for DH and CHP development – in progress
3. Biomass Logistic and Trade Center
BLTC Project Capacity building for establishment of Regional Center for Biomass
Distribution developed in 2013
Partners:
• Resurs Center Majdanpek – main partner
• Majdanpek Municipality – in kind contr. and location for BLTC
• Majdanpek forest owners’ association – wood supply
• Association of ship captains of Serbia - transport
• SERBIO – biomass supply and processing training
Specific goals:
1. Develop and establish logistic and trade center for woo fuels and products
marketing, which can supply domestic and EU market with products via Danube
river
2. Improve capacities and competitiveness in marketing chain for production,
distribution and utilization of biomass in Lower Danube region
Applied for project financing to Project fund: Socio economic development of Danube
region – Austrian Development Agency
Received support and financing and project started in summer 2013
Duration: 18months
4. Project implementation & activities
1.
2.
Infrastructure works in building BLTC
Machinery procurement:
– Firewood processor √
– Wood humidity measurement equipment √
– Wood chipper (low to medium capacity) √
– Telehandler √
3. Extension and training
– Training for forest owners and future employees of BLTC on biomass
production, processing, trade, quality, etc…√
– Training for entrepreneurs in ship transport for manipulation and transport
of wood biomass products
– Online biomass product sale platform – http://www.serbio.rs/mapa

BLTC – joint company of Resurs Centar and JKP Toplana Majdanpek
4 people to be employed in BLTC
Strong demand for firewood
Wood chips demand growing
DH and CHP initiative for Majdanpek continues
New CHP in Donji Milanovac contract signed (Atlas Group 1.2MW)
Development of biomass DH projects (bioenergy villages) and rural public building
heating (schools, etc)
BLTC concept applicable in Serbia
Especially with small-medium scale biomass consumers – DH systems, schools,
industry facilities, hotels, restaurants, hospitals, retirement homes, etc…
Interest for such projects is constantly growing - To small for independent wood
chips production and storage
BLTC developed locally can provide efficient solution!
BLTC employ and engage local population using wood from private forests locally
5. Follow up and
Possibilities for cooperation
• BioRes project application for Horizon 2020 –GIZ, AEBIOM, LK-STM, CARMEN,
METLA, KSSENA, REGEA, BGBIOM, SERBIO – goal: development of BLTCs in
Balkan countries
• SERBIO in German-Serbian Bioenergy Partnership:
– Link to local companies and local bioenergy projects
– Project implementation
– Information, awareness raising and public relations
– Policy formulation and lobbying
– Biomass utilization trainings implementation and consulting services
– Organization of biomass supply (contracting biomass, logistic solutions,
etc…)
