The Belgrade Secretariat for Urban Planning and Construction announced an early public inspection regarding the preparation of the spatial plan of the special purpose area for the project – BeoGrid 2025, eKapija announced.
As the portal reminds, in January 2023, the Government of Serbia adopted the Program of Economic Reforms for the period from 2023 to 2025, and one of the 10 planned structural reforms is the integration of renewable sources of electricity through the BeoGrid 2025 project.
The goal of the BeoGrid 2025 project is to enable greater integration of electricity produced from renewable sources (wind farms), which are located in the South Banat region, as well as to relieve the load of the 220/110/35 kV Beograd 5 transformer station, which supplies electricity to a large part of Belgrade, especially parts of New Belgrade and Zemun.
The BeoGrid 2025 project includes the Belgrade 50 400/110 kV substation with the associated 400 kV and 110 kV connections and a double 400 kV transmission line from the Belgrade 50 substation to the southern Banat region (near the Čibuk wind farm).
Infrastructure works correspond to total investments of around 90 million euros, and include the construction of one transformer station and several dual-system and single-system transmission lines, in a total of six functional units within the BeoGrid 2025 project.
For the purposes of referral to the early public inspection procedure, it is proposed to include the spatial plan in parts of the territory of the city of Belgrade, the city municipalities of Zemun, Palilula and Surčin, the city of Pančevo, and the municipalities of Alibunar, Kovačica, Kovin, Pećinci and Stara Pazova. The total area of the spatial plan and the area of detailed elaboration will cover about 12 km2.
It is expected to be fully operational by 2025.
The BeoGrid 2025 project is part of the wider North CSE corridor project, which also includes the duplication of the existing interconnected 400 kV transmission line Đerdap 1 – Portile De Fier (Romania).
