Emergency situation - Southeast Europe floods
The heaviest rain in 120 years ofrecorded weather measurements
Damage in Serbia stands at1.55 billion euros
During the flooding period, anestimated 300,000 households wereleft without electric power
Flood waters filled the largest coalfield of RB Kolubara with 210 millioncubic meters of water
The mining equipment was damaged(coal railway)
The water penetrated into major 400kV substation in vicinity of thermalpower plan Nikola Tesla A and B

Lessons learned
Detailed system defense plan needs to be prepared inadvance
Non-centralized production portfolio More investments
in distributed generation
Increasing capacities of coal landfills
Continuous training of dispatchers for emergencysituations
Investment in demand response
Short and Medium Term Adequacy Forecasts
