        Croatia

        Croatia's National Energy Strategy 2009-2020 has three basic objectives: increase security of energy supply, develop competitive energy system and ensure sustainable energy sector development. These objectives are particularly important for the country, as it is heavily dependent on energy imports, resulting in its vulnerability to energy prices fluctuations.

        Hungary National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP)

        The National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) defines Hungary’s climate policy goals through 2030, incorporating 2040 perspectives. Hungary’s main objectives by 2030 indicated in the Plan are as follows: • Reduction of gross GHG emissions compared to 1990: minimum of -50%• Reduction of ESR emissions compared to 2005: minimum of 18.7%• Final energy consumption: maximum of 740 PJ• Share of interconnected electricity systems: minimum of 60%• Share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption: 30%

        Hungary METÁR system

        …necessary legislative amendments were adopted by parliament in June and December 2016. The KÁT system continues to operate for existing plants following the introduction of METÁR; however, only new entrants will be eligible for the METÁR support mechanism.
        The purpose of the new mechanism is to facilitate the integration of renewable electricity producers into the market, as well as to support the fulfilment of Hungary’s 2020 renewable energy targets. Under METÁR, renewable electricity generators, with the exception of non-wind power plants under 0.5 megawatts (MW) and those already receiving a FIT, shall sell electricity on the market…

        Georgia

        Georgia has developed an energy sector based largely on hydropower and fuelwood, in addition to imports of fossil fuels. It is also an important transit country for the region, with major oil and gas pipelines running across Georgian territory. Efforts are required to improve energy efficiency and capitalise on the country’s renewable energy potential.
        Georgia has made solid progress in the past decade, both in improving the security of its energy supply and in transitioning to a cleaner, more sustainable energy system. Although Georgia is still confronted with many challenges in its transition to a more secure, sustainable and…

        Bulgaria

        Bulgaria adopted The Energy from Renewable Sources Act in 2011. The Act regulates the generation and consumption of energy from renewable sources with the aim of achieving the national targets in terms of renewable energy use in final gross energy consumption.

        Greece

        Greece is making progress on its energy transition, including implementing reforms to standardise and simplify licensing procedures for renewable projects and investigating options for offshore wind. Coal fired generation, once the main source of electricity, will be phased out by 2028 at the latest and EUR 5 billion has been committed to assist impacted communities. Auctions are driving strong deployment of solar PV, onshore wind and battery storage. There are also projects for interconnections and renewables to decarbonise electricity on Greek islands. However, more effort is needed boost electrification and improve efficiency in transport and buildings.

        Bosnia and Herzegovina

        Bosnia and Herzegovina adopted a National Environmental Action Plan, which provides action path to address the major environmental issues of the country. In the energy sector the target will be achieved by increasing energy efficiency and usage of renewables (hydro, solar, wind and geothermal energy).

        Kyrgyzstan

        Kyrgyzstan’s hydro-rich energy sector is characterised by aging infrastructure and significant losses, which are exacerbated by a combination of weather-related shocks and growing demand. Energy policy aims to improve energy security by developing indigenous energy sources and rehabilitating and expanding transmission and distribution networks. Developing sustainable energy and improving energy efficiency are also priorities, while slowly removing subsidies will allow for further investment and expansion of domestic resources. Kyrgyzstan is part of the EU4Energy Programme, which is focused on evidence-based policymaking in the energy sector.
