Refusal of Russian gas: Serbia and Romania agreed on the construction of a gas interconnector.
The energy ministers of Romania and Serbia signed a Memorandum of Understanding on the construction of a gas interconnector between the two countries.
The Memorandum was signed by Serbia's Minister of Mining and Energy Dubravka Đedović Handanović and her Romanian counterpart Sebastian Burduja.
According to the plan, the interconnector will connect the Mokrin hub in Serbia with the BRUA pipeline across the border in Romania, and the Serbian section will be completed by 2027.
The length of the pipeline on the Serbian side will be 13 kilometers, and on the Romanian side - 86 kilometers, with a projected capacity of at least 1.6 billion cubic meters of gas.
The project is intended to strengthen the energy security of both countries and diversify supply routes to the regional market, the Serbian government said.
Since 2022, when Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine began, Serbia has been actively seeking ways to reduce its dependence on gas supplies from Russia.
