Western Balkan 6 Sustainability Report marks progress but calls for increased political support

The Secretariat’s WB6 report on sustainability finds that progress in a number of measures has been achieved by governments, although more political support is needed to make full use of existing programmes, accelerate the clean energy transition and deliver on the region’s climate commitments.

The 3rd Energy Efficiency Action Plans have now been adopted by all the WB6 and progress was achieved also in transposing the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive. On support schemes for renewables, there is an ongoing discussion in many Contracting Parties on how to shift from feed-in tariff to a more competitive, market-based bidding process along with an increasing consideration for the future role of independent power producers and community energy.
