Regional licensing
May 25, 2022
In order to strengthen our competitive position on the regional market, we establish quality partnerships with companies in the Western Balkans region, but also provide the necessary corporate and personal licenses for the provision of our services.
In addition to having the necessary licenses for the provision of design and supervision services on projects of power lines and substations with a voltage of 110kV and above, as well as facilities for the production of electricity with a power of over 10MW in North Macedonia, we have secured the appropriate licenses in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Republika Srpska).
Namely, since June of this year, we have the license “for the revision of technical documentation for facilities for which the construction permit is issued by the Ministry of Spatial Planning, Construction and Ecology (R.Srpska), namely 1. structural part and 2. electrical part – installations of high voltage lines and substations“.
In Serbia we continue to maintain licenses no. P061E1, P062E1, P190E1, P203G1, I061E1, I062E1.
Nastavak projekta North CSE Corridor (Severni koridor CSE), uključujući i BeoGrid 2025
November 10, 2021
Soon after the Pre-Feasibility Study related to this strategic project was finalized, the next stage was initiated – Feasibility Study and ESIA for new 400/110 kV substation Belgrade West, 400kV OHL substation Belgrade West – switching station Čibuk 1, and 400 kV OHL Serbia – Romania.
As with the previous assignment, the beneficiary of the study is the Serbian Transmission System Operator Elektromreža Srbije JSC (EMS) and the project is implemented by IPF7 Consortium lead by Hill International. The grant is provided by the Western Balkans Investment Framework (WBIF). The IFI is German Development Bank (KfW). Our E&E team is again responsible for the project management and technical (overhead lines and substation) component.
This time though, the assignment consists of two Components:
- BeoGrid 2025, with 400 kV OHL S/S Belgrade West – WPP Čibuk 1 and Substation 400/110 kV Belgrade West (Belgrade 50) and
- Upgrade of existing 400 kV OHL Serbia (HPP Djerdap 1) – Romania (Portile de Fier) to double-circuit OHL.
The Feasibility Study shall further assess and analyse the previously selected project option and help bring the project closer to the implementation phase, considering it is a project positioned very high on the priority list of EMS.
The assignment shall be completed in the third quarter of 2022.

North CSE Corridor – New strategic project in Serbia supported by WBIF
August 1, 2020
In July 2020, a development of new strategic project for the Serbian transmission system commenced by initiation of the Pre-Feasibility Study. The beneficiary of the study is the Serbian Transmission System Operator Elektromreža Srbije JSC (EMS) and the project is implemented by IPF7 Consortium lead by Hill International. The grant is provided by the Western Balkans Investment Framework (WBIF). The IFI is German Development Bank (KfW). Our E&E team is responsible for the project management and technical (overhead lines and substation) component.
The subject assignment is focused on the assessment of the following planned transmission infrastructure developments, being a part of the North CSE Corridor Project:
- Substation 400/110 kV Belgrade West,
- 400 kV OHL S/S Belgrade West – WPP Čibuk 1 and
- Upgrade of existing 400 kV OHL Serbia (HPP Djerdap 1) – Romania (Portile de Fier) to double-circuit OHL.
These components are clustered together in the North CSE Corridor Project, considering that they represent significant bottlenecks or missing links on the major 400kV corridor from eastern Romania to the Belgrade region in Serbia.
Among other potential benefits of the project, its implementation should significantly reduce current congestions in the regions of Belgrade and South Banat and enable future connections of RES (renewable energy sources), especially wind farms in the region of South Banat.
It is planned that the Pre-Feasibility Study, together with the Conceptual Design of overhead lines and substation and Preliminary ESIA Study would be completed by May 2021.
We are pleased to be a part of such an important project and assist in its successful development.
