[PDF Version]FAQS about North Macedonia s new energy storage policy
What's happening in North Macedonia?
CE Report presents an exclusive interview with the Ministry of Energy, Mining and Mineral Resources of North Macedonia, shedding light on the country's dynamic energy transition, strategic renewable energy investments, and regional cooperation efforts.
How has the 2022 energy crisis impacted North Macedonia?
The 2022 energy crisis exposed and intensified the vulnerabilities in the energy sector of North Macedonia, revealing the risks of an insufficiently diversified power generation mix and weak regional market integration.
How is North Macedonia preparing for a green transition?
North Macedonia has made important commitments in its green transition, including the complete phase-out of coal-fired power generation and the deployment of 1.7 gigawatts of renewable energy by 2030, grid and storage investments for energy security and measures to support communities affected by coal transition.
Why does North Macedonia need a 'just transition'?
Years of declining domestic energy production, driven by underinvestment in both new infrastructure and the maintenance of existing assets, left North Macedonia especially susceptible to energy price volatility. The concept of a “just transition” is important for North Macedonia, especially in regions that are heavily dependent on coal.
