Battery operators across Southeast Europe are increasingly buying solar-heavy midday electricity to sell later, with Bulgaria leading the trend. Serbia has begun recording negative day-ahead prices, creating a potential but variable source of low-cost power for storage.
Day-ahead prices for 8 November delivery fell 16.4% in Greece and 10.1% in Serbia, while Montenegro’s premium over Serbia widened. Romanian nuclear output rose after Cernavodă Unit 1 reconnected to the grid, although the available data do not isolate its effect on prices.
Serbian industrial companies must weigh owning batteries against buying flexibility as a service. The choice depends on whether factory-specific savings or market optimisation provides most of the battery’s value.

BHP has issued termination notices for its Central Timok and Borsko exploration options in eastern Serbia, returning eight licences to Mundoro Capital when the notices take effect. The miner retains separate Trstenik and South Timok agreements, while Mundoro seeks partners to fund drilling on the returned licences.
Centerra Gold has agreed to buy 12.374 million newly issued Mundoro Capital shares for approximately C$4.08 million (€2.60 million), in a proposed placement that would give it a 9.9% stake. The funding would support Mundoro’s exploration and working capital as it seeks partners for projects in Serbia, but the deal has not closed.
Northstone Resources secured commitments for a share placement worth about EUR1.45 million to fund exploration at its Tlamino gold-silver and Timok East copper-gold projects in Serbia. The financing will support drilling and technical studies, not mine construction.
