CLUSTER INDICATORS 2023 HIGHLIGHTS AND NEXT STEPS .2023-12-08-13-48-12.png)
Markets and integration The transmission system operator Moldelectrica was certified on 11 July 2023 as an independent system operator. ANRE provisionally designated Vestmoldtransgaz as a natural gas transmission operator of the Moldovatransgaz network, the basis for the unbundling of the country’s gas infrastructure operators. Moldova should accelerate the transposition and implementation of the Electricity Integration Package, prioritizing short-term electricity markets and their integration. The certification of Vestmoldtransgaz should be finalized, followed by the removal of barriers to create a genuine free gas market. 
Decarbonising the energy sector Moldova keeps expanding its renewable energy capacities through a self-consumption scheme. It has made significant progress with the Clean Energy Package alignment by adopting the Energy Efficiency Law. To have the final version adopted within the deadlines set by the Governance Regulation, Moldova should submit the draft NECP to the Secretariat. 
Ensuring energy security The emergency state is in force until 30 November 2023. The electricity supply contract with MGRES was extended until the end of 2024. The Law on Cybersecurity was approved in 2023. Moldova is independent of Russian gas supplies. It achieved the gas storage targets without formally implementing them. As a matter of priority within the regional context, the Government should transpose Regulation (EU) 2019/941 on Risk-preparedness in the Electricity Sector and update its sectoral risk-preparedness plan. Moldova needs to speed up the transposition of the Security of Gas Supply Regulation. 
Improving the environment Due to fuel supply switches, the good compliance record of Moldova with emission regulations was broken. Compliance should be re-established without delay. 
Performance of authorities ANRE exercised its competences regarding the unbundling of the gas transmission system operator and withdrew the license of Moldovatransgaz. Competences on REMIT in the electricity sector should be established. status: November 2023
