ENERGY

€2.2 billion of investment planned by 2020 including 1 billion from the Energy Development Fund.

• Energy strategy: efficiency a priority for buildings and industry.
• Building: 36% of final energy consumption, with 29% being residential and 7% service sector/energy efficiency potential in excess of 29% by 2020.
• National energy efficiency programme in buildings being steered by ADEREE:
• Development of standards and technical guides for building professionals.
• Implementation of a strategy to mobilize and raise the awareness of relevant public and private sector operators.
• Identification and promotion of energy efficiency investment in the building sector through the realization of a portfolio of demonstration projects.

RENEWABLE

Renewables: goal of 42% of installed electrical capacity from renewables by 2020.

Potential:

Solar = average insolation of 5 kWh/m²/day
Wind = in excess of 6000 MW
Water = over 200 exploitable sites
Biomass = 9 million hectares of forests
Green energy development plan / goal: to raise the share of electrical capacity generated from renewables (wind, solar, water) to 42% by 2020.
