With technical and expert assistance from Germany, Serbia will continue to work on strategic documents related to decarbonization, CO2 emissions and renewable energy sources, according to Serbian Minister for European Integration Jadranka JoksimoviÄ.
Based on the declaration, Serbia will develop an institutional model, she said, adding that the strategic documents will be developed through a working group that will include German experts.
JoksimoviÄ said that teams from all Serbian government ministries and members of the German delegation would review all important projects to identify areas where German financial aid and subsidies would be most beneficial.
