Abstract
The use of hydropower potential in the Republic of Serbia is dependent on the
demand for electricity and implies meeting the basic and special needs for energy, certainty
of delivery to the consumers, attaining lower prices, aligning the development of the energy
sector and economic and societal development and rational production, transmission and
distribution of electrical energy. By establishing a specific public-private partnership model
(PPP) the water sector can use the renewable potential of the amounts and quality of water
and manage its water resources to gain indirect, induced and direct supply that may impact
the private energy efficiency and that meets ever growing demand of the energy sector, that
is their supply in the energy market. Today’s conditions under which the water sector is
functioning and the attitude towards energy demands need to be changed by establishing a
relationship between the public and the private domains in accordance with the principles
and requirements that apply on PPP and under conditions that are based on the national and
EU legislation
