Albania’s Energy Sector Progress

Albania’s energy sector has witnessed substantial developments in the past year.
Notable advancements include the launch of a day-ahead electricity market by the
power exchange ALPEX in April 2023 and the successful implementation of an
operational and competitively organized balancing market. As of January 1, 2022,
all consumers connected to 20 kV, 10 kV, and 6 kV are entitled to choose their
supplier as part of their entry into the liberalized market, aligning with the
country’s goal of achieving full independence as a net exporter by 2023.

Albania’s commitment to renewable energy is evident through the revision of its
Renewables Law, which now incorporates a 54.4% target for renewable energy
adoption. This ambitious goal is set to be supported by the construction of the
Skavica HPP and a 1200 MW pumped storage hydropower plant upstream of the
Moglicë hydropower plant. Additionally, the new Renewables Law introduces a net
billing system for self-consumed renewables, transitioning to net billing with a
maximum capacity of 500 kW and fostering the participation of citizens in
renewable energy communities. The country has also authorized over 10 GW of
permits for hydro, photovoltaic, and wind projects, signaling an open invitation
for partnerships.

The convergence of the energy and construction sectors signifies a
transformative period for Albania. With the 2030 renewable energy target
distributing sub-targets for heating and cooling (16.6%), the country is on the
cusp of adopting a long-term building renovation strategy and implementing the
Energy Efficiency Law. This drive towards energy efficiency is evident in the
establishment of an operational energy performance certification system, which
has issued over 100,000 audit reports since its inception. The Energy Efficiency
Agency’s provision of subsidies for 4000 families to install solar water heating
systems further exemplifies Albania’s commitment to sustainability.

Albania’s investments in energy efficiency are primarily channeled through the
state budget and foreign financial aid, with a particular emphasis on the
buildings sector. Subsidized initiatives, with up to 50% of costs covered by the
Municipality of Tirana, are supplemented by commercial banks’ proactive
promotion of energy efficiency through credit lines targeted at enhancing the
thermal insulation of building envelopes in private buildings.

The primary aims of the Energy Forum of Tirana 2024:

– To facilitate constructive dialogue and create a favourable business climate
for accelerating investments through legal and regulatory reforms.

– To underscore notable advancements and investment prospects for both local and
international investors in Albania.

– To boost the durable collaborations in sustainable investments between
governmental bodies and private stakeholders in Albania.

– To promote and improve cooperation in the sustainable sector by better
integrating the main private actors in the energy, construction and
environmental protection sectors.

– To drive innovation, education, and employment opportunities, with a focus on
fostering economic growth and society’s well-being.

Agenda of Tirana Energy Forum – TEF 2024

The upcoming forum will feature four panels, each dedicated to specific themes.

Panel 1: Advancing the energy transition for sustainable industry and business
in Albania, with a focus on alignment with the Green Agenda and the Economic
Investment Plan for the Western Balkans.

Albania’s energy sector has progressed significantly in the past year, signaling
