Serbian officials lay out nuclear energy timeline
Serbia reached a significant milestone in 2024 when its National Assembly overturned a moratorium on nuclear power plants that had been in place for 35 years, a ban imposed when the country was part of the former Yugoslavia.
Fast forward to 2026 and the European country’s nuclear energy ambitions have become clearer. On July 13, Serbia’s Ministry of Mining and Energy held a four-day workshop outlining the country’s plans to kickstart a nuclear program.

Simulations of FLECHT and FLECHT-SEASET, unblocked forced flow reflood tests, were performed using RELAP5/MOD2 code reflood capabilities. The predictions of the high flooding injection rate and steam cooling tests were in good agreement with the measurements. The low flooding rate tests showed a tendency to predict lower peak cladding temperatures than the data and unrealistic void fraction oscillations. The spikes in void fraction histories were flow-regime dependent. The prediction for the quench times at the upper bundle elevations was overestimated.
