Status of implementation of climate change/energy activities

Learn about Kosovo's current status of implementing climate change and energy activities, the need for a national focal point, and the importance of developing an action plan for greenhouse gas abatement. Discover the impact of coal as the main energy resource and the lack of data on greenhouse gas emissions in Kosovo. Explore measures such as the use of biomass and renewable energy sources, cleaner technologies, and the establishment of clear policy targets. Understand Kosovo's obligations under the Athens Energy Community treaty and how they contribute to reducing emissions.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Status of implementation of climate change/energy activities • Kosovo actually does not actively participate in implementing the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. • It is important to establish a national focal point for climate change issues in the near future and to set up a responsible body for policy making with regard to implementation of particular conventions. • In the near future, Kosovo should start with the preparation of developing an Action Plan for greenhouse gases (GHG) abatement.

  2. Status of implementation of climate change/energy activities • The main energy resource in Kosovo is coal, economic development is expected to generally increase the emission rate of gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect. • There is no data available so far about the greenhouse gases emission in Kosovo. • The only available data that might calculate to a rough estimation on climate changes are dated from 1985-1989. After this period, relevant measurements have not been performed.

  3. Climate Change reporting • Strengthening and organizing the institutional and technical resources and adoption of necessary legislation should be considered as one of priority for the following period. • The use of biomass, renewable energy sources, and introduction of cleaner technologies, is part of the measures that will have to be implemented towards the reduction of the GHG emissions in Kosovo. • Establishing clear policy targets and introduction of comprehensive monitoring network and the collection of reliable data.

  4. Important What is important to say at this meeting on the topic of Energy and Climate is that Kosova is already a signatory to the Athens Energy Community. Regarding to this Kosova has undertaken to meet the obligations deriving from this treaty, with special emphasis in the field of environment, such as the obligation deriving from the Large Combustion Plant Directive, Directive on Sulphur Content of Marine Fuels and Directive on Protection of Wild Birds. These are obligations which should contribute in reducing the emission of gases that cause global climate changes.
