Kosovo*'s action plans, reports and statements

Kosovo*

Day of Accession
1 July 2006
Status
Contracting Party

As a Contracting Party to the Energy Community Treaty, Kosovo* has the obligation to implement the energy acquis in force. Parallel to the adoption of secondary legislation, the implementation of the acquis gives rise to diverse reporting obligations.

Particularly the implementation of the renewable energy and energy efficiency acquis is based on comprehensive, multi-annual action plans. As a first step, the Parties draft and adopt the action plans that set the steps for achieving the negotiated targets. They are subsequently obliged to report about the progress achieved in the form of regular progress reports.

Starting in 2019, Kosovo* will also have a reporting obligation pursuant Annex VIII.B of the Large Combustion Plan Directive 2001/80/EC as amended by Decision 2013/05/MC-EnC.

This page displays the reports and action plans submitted by Kosovo* to the Secretariat so far. Pursuant to the Secretariat's documents policy, no document older than ten years is displayed online. 

  • Statements

    Security of supply statements

    According to Article 29 of the Treaty, the Contracting Parties are to adopt Security of Supply Statements starting one year after its entry into force (July 2007). The statements are to describe in particular the diversity of supply, technological security, and geographic origin of imported fuels. The Parties have the obligation to update the statements and notify the Secretariat every two years.

  • National energy efficiency action plan

    National Energy Efficiency Action Plans

    The National Energy Efficiency Action Plans (NEEAPs) provide a framework for the development of a national strategy on how best to augment the level of energy efficiency. The NEEAPs, to be submitted to the Secretariat every two years, also provide a platform for the Parties to evaluate the energy savings resulting from the implementation of these strategies. Whilst the first NEEAPs covered the period 2010-2012, the second NEEAPs set the line of action for 2013-2015 pursuant to the Energy Services Directive 2006/32/EC.   

    The Energy Services Directive 2006/32/EC was repealed by the Energy Efficiency Directive 2012/27/EU. Incorporated into the acquis in October 2015, the Energy Efficiency Directive mandates the Parties to report and evaluate a set of measures that contribute to the 2018 national target for final energy savings. The Third NEEAPs should accordingly cover the period 2016-2018 and be submitted to the Secretariat by the end of June 2016 at the latest.

  • Progress reports

    Progress reports

    Article 24(1) of  Directive 2012/27/EU lays down the Contracting Parties' reporting obligations on energy efficiency. By 30 June each year as of 2017, they are to send to the Secretariat the data on energy efficiency targets, indicators, consumption trends and key Energy Efficiency Directive implementing measures.

  • National renewable action plan (NREAP)

    National renewable action plan (NREAP)

    Article 4 of Directive 2009/28/EC requires the adoption of a national renewable action plan (NREAP) setting out the Contracting Parties national targets for the share of energy from renewable sources consumed in transport, electricity and heating and cooling in 2020 and adequate measures to be taken to achieve those national overall targets.

  • Progress reports

    Progress reports

    Article 22 (1) of Directive 2009/28/EC lays down the Contracting Parties' reporting obligation on renewable energy. By 31 December 2014 and every two years thereafter, reports on the progress towards the targets have to be submitted to the Secretariat.

  • National Emission Reduction Plan

    National Emission Reduction Plan

    The Large Combustion Plants Directive took effect on 1 January 2018 in the Energy Community. For existing large combustion plants, two alternative implementation avenues exist: either compliance with the emission limit values for SO2, NOx and dust at individual plant level, or implementation of a National Emission Reduction Plan (NERP). Every plant must be covered by either of the two options.

    The National Emission Reduction Plan (NERP) was adopted by the Government of Kosovo* in May 2018, taking the Secretariat’s comments into account.

  • Emission reports from large combustion plants

    Emission reports from large combustion plants

    Kosovo* reports its data on Large Combustion Plants (LCPs) to European Environment Agency (EEA) under the Energy Community Treaty. This reporting is conducted annually by filling out an excel sheet that is then posted in the EEA Central Data Repository. The EEA maintains a separate Energy Community database, which contains plant-by-plant data. 

    2018 data marks the beginning of the LCP data reporting. The data include rated thermal input, annual energy input and emissions of SO2, NOX and dust. In addition, information on derogations under the provisions of the agreed legislation under the Treaty is provided. Since the start of the reporting, Kosovo* has submitted EEA data on all its five LCPs plants. 

  • National Energy and Climate Plan

    National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP)

    The Clean Energy Package includes a robust governance system, under which each Member State is required to establish integrated 10-year National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs). Based on a common structure, the NECPs outline how the Member States will achieve their respective targets on all dimensions of the energy union, including a longer-term view towards 2050.

    The NECPs follow a life cycle perspective: draft plan / recommendation / final plan / assessment / update of the plan, and in parallel the drafting of a plan for the next period slowly begins.
