The revitalization of the control system at the reversible hydropower plant “Bajina Bašta” has been completed, with a significant contribution from the IMP-Automatika team on this complex Elektroprivreda Srbije project.
As the only facility in the system capable of both generating electricity and pumping water between Lake Zaovine and Lake Perućac, the plant plays a crucial role in balancing the grid; especially important with the growing share of variable renewable energy sources.
According to Milan Bjedov, Head of Hydropower Control Systems, the project demonstrated that such a complex system can be successfully delivered using domestic expertise and equipment.
Thorough testing confirmed reliable operation in both generator and pumping modes, ensuring long-term stability and the continued importance of this key national energy asset.
