Belgrade-based Solarina, a unit of renewable energy developer CWP Europe, will build a photovoltaic (PV) power plant with a capacity of 150 MW in Serbia's eastern city of Zajecar, the local authorities said.

The power plant, comprising three units, will be built on a 413 ha land plot, a detailed plan, which the city of Zajecar put up for public review, showed on Friday.

The capacity of the individual solar panels will be determined at a later stage.

Citizens can deliver until March 14 remarks and questions about the project, which the city urbanisation commission will review on March 23.

Solarina is a limited liability company founded in 2019. It's sole owner is CWP Europe, a renewable energy developer based in Luxembourg, according to Trade Register data.

Founded in 2007, CWP is a leading renewable energy developer in Southeast Europe, delivering some of the largest projects and the largest onshore windfarm in Europe.

According to an earlier announcement by the Zajecar authorities, another Belgrade-based company, Energy Network, too will build a 50 MW solar plant near the city.
