Požarevac's air quality faces significant challenges from the Kostolac coal-fired power station complex on the Danube, generating elevated SO₂ and PM2.5 alongside vehicle traffic on the A1 motorway and residential heating in this eastern Serbian city. The flat Pannonian plain generally allows reasonable dispersal, while temperature inversions concentrate power station and urban emissions under calm winter conditions and the Danube corridor provides limited ventilation throughout the year.
