Seventh solar power plant has been installed and commissioned
According to the plan, seventh solar power plant at UC was recently installed and commissioned.
Solar power plant No. 7 covers a roof area of 1163 m² and consists of 360 panels. The total power of the power plant is 230 kWp AC, while the projected annual production is around 263 MWh.
Today, a total of 5930 m² of roof area is covered by as many as 2450 solar panels, which results in a total power of 1044 kWp AC and a projected annual production of 1265 MWh.
A detailed overview of all power plants is available in the image below:

On Sunday 06.10.2024, we organized the second UC Family day.
The central event of the family day was the now traditional 3×3 football tournament, in which 6 teams from all three production plants participated.
In the final of the tournament, the teams of “Tocila” and “Gagini Orlići” met and the “Gagini Orlići” came out on top with the following composition: Saša Milisavljević, Stefan Spasojević, Nikola Borisavljević and Dušan Milenković. In addition to trophy and medals, the winners also received a prize in the form of a weekend at Zlatibor.
In the fun zone, our youngest could enjoy the tricks performed by funny animators and magicians, as well as dart football, PS5 tournament, table football, table tennis, shot strength measurement. About 250 members of the UC family visited this event, and an even larger number of visitors is expected next year.

All jacks of batch #1, produced by UNIOR components d.o.o, have been validated and accepted after the Site Acceptance Tests carried out at CERN. The green light to proceed with the manufacturing of pre-series batch #2 has already been given to UNIOR Components.
Machining of batch #2 parts is expected to be completed by beginning of March, followed by the full assembly and the Factory Acceptance Tests. These new jacks are expected to be delivered to CERN in early May.

UNIOR Components officially receives the “prosumer” status
On 18.11.2022. UNIOR Components has officially obtained the status of “prosumer” of electrical energy produced by its solar power plants “UC A” and “UC B” whose total installed capacity is 555 kWh. This is the final step of the project, the investment of which started back in 2021.
UNIOR Components hereby officially became one of the first companies in the region that, after installing significant capacities in the production of electricity from renewable sources, acquired the status of “prosumer” from EPS (Elektro Privreda Srbije). Also, according to the current plan, in 2023, 30-40% of electricity will be produced by solar panels.
In order to increase competitiveness on the global market, but also bearing in mind the volatility of the energy market, as well as contributing to the global goals of sustainable development, UNIOR Components will continue to invest in its capacities for the production of electricity.
Ivan Milićević, the manager of this project at UC, says the following for our website:
“This is a big step forward in the realization of this project, but we are not stopping here. We will try to install more solar panels up to the total approved power of 900KW in the coming period. We expect the installed capacity to reduce Unior Components’ electricity costs, but also to contribute as much as we can to the efforts of state institutions to reduce the import of energy. In other words, we want to be responsible both for the business of the company and for the state of Serbia.“
