Serbia Developing New Gas Routes, Sources with EU Support Konstantin Karagyozov,BTA Correspondent Teodora Encheva 2–3 minutes _____ Serbia is developing new gas supply routes and sources with the support of the European Union, Mining and Energy Minister Dubravka Djedovic Handanovic said, as quoted by national broadcaster RTS. Djedovic Handanovic conferred Thursday with the Head of the EU Delegation to Serbia and Ambassador Andreas von Beckerath on energy security and investments in energy infrastructure. “These are gas interconnectors with Romania and North Macedonia, which we aim to complete by 2027 and have operational by 2028,” the Minister told RTS. She added that there are challenges related to the financing of gas infrastructure, which need to be addressed. The Serbian energy minister recalled that the feasibility study for the Serbia–North Macedonia gas interconnector has been completed and that the preparation of the design and technical documentation is in its final stage. “Through the Serbia-Bulgaria gas interconnector, we are successfully supplying natural gas from Azerbaijan, from which we receive secure quantities. We are also expanding our underground gas storage facility while using storage capacities in Hungary to ensure supply security and reserves in case of disruptions,” Djedovic Handanovic added. Ambassador von Beckerath underscored that energy is an important area of cooperation between the EU and Serbia, emphasizing that the EU stands ready to support Serbia in the preparation and construction of alternative energy supply routes, RTS also reported. /NZ/ -- http:www.antic.org --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SERBIAN NEWS NETWORK" group.
