Number 47 – April 2026

Editorial work sometimes feels like assembling a mosaic – with each issue, we strive to bring together the best pieces we have. This time, however, something different happened: the pieces seemed to fall into place on their own,
forming a coherent picture. That is why the issue before you stands out for its depth of information and insight.

We had the pleasure of hosting Tine van der Straten, the newly appointed Director of WindEurope, who is taking the helm of the European wind energy association at a time when the sector must significantly accelerate the deployment of new capacities, strengthen supply chains, and support the electrification
of industry.

Electromobility was a particular source of inspiration, so we spoke with experts from Serbia, Slovenia, and Croatia. They shared valuable perspectives on the development of e-mobility, the state of infrastructure, and long-term plans in their respective countries. We also spoke with Wojciech Skrobis´, Chargé d’Affaires at the Embassy of the Republic of Poland in Bosnia and Herzegovina, who introduced us to Poland’s strategies for phasing out coal, increasing the share of renewable energy, as well as current green projects and useful insights for countries such as Bosnia and Herzegovina.

As the entire world, to varying degrees, feels the impact of geopolitical instability in the Middle East, this issue also brings an overview of key strategies for addressing the emerging crisis – particularly those already being implemented by developed European countries.

You will also learn what the Program for the Implementation of the Energy Development Strategy of the Republic of Serbia for the period 2026–2028 entails – both in terms of increasing renewable energy capacities and addressing
energy poverty.

We introduce a completely new term – petromasculinity – explained by linguist Jovana Vurdelja in our Opinion section. Additionally, we bring you two inspiring articles about Čelarevo, a baroque gem of Serbia, along with many other insightful and engaging stories.

We wish you an enjoyable read and hope that in this issue you will find inspiration, new knowledge, and a reason for optimism.
