Cyprus
Cyprus’ Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan
Executive
Plan
Passed in 2020
The plan establishes 'key policy planning priorities' with specific measures :
1) GHG emissions and removals : promotion of natural gas and RES, reduction of emissions in the transport, agricultural and waste sector, increasing carbon sinks and improving energy efficiency in building and infrastructure;
2) Renewable energy sources : promotion of synergies with other sectors (Energy Efficiency, Waste, Security of supply) to promotion RES in all energy sectors, support schemes for RES to participate in the Electricity Market, etc;
3) Energy efficiency : energy efficiency obligation scheme for energy distributors, implementation of information and education measures, etc;
4) Security of supply : increasingthe flexibility of the national energy system
5) Internal Energy market : promotion of electricity interconnectivity of Cyprus via the project of common interest EuroAsia Interconnector, etc;
