The Balkan Green Energy News portal is pleased to announce the 3rd edition of its annual flagship conference, the Belgrade Energy Forum 2025. This event will take place on May 14-15, 2025, at the Crowne Plaza in Belgrade.
Following the outstanding success of the Belgrade Energy Forum in 2023 and 2024, which brought together nearly 1,000 participants from over 30 countries – including five ministers of energy from the Southeast Europe region and more than 120 leading speakers in energy transition from Europe and beyond – anticipation for the upcoming conference is at an all-time high. Belgrade Energy Forum 2025 promises to be a vital platform where top leaders in the energy transition of Southeast Europe will come together to share insights and shape the future of energy.
Join energy ministers and their key teams, along with representatives from international energy organisations, regulatory body directors from the region and the EU, and major energy companies. This is your chance to connect with industry associations, power utilities, power exchanges, TSOs, DSOs, investors, bankers, and insurance firms.
Engage with innovative developers, technology providers, EPC firms, software companies, consultancies, and law practices to collaborate on the future of energy.
Don’t miss this exceptional opportunity to network with industry leaders and shape the energy landscape together!
