The renewable energy policy is determined by the 2010 Strategy for Utilisation of Renewable Energy Sources by 2020 [19]. North Macedonia transposed the EU acquis regarding Renewable Energy Sources (RES),(...) on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources. The Directive requires the setting of targets as a percentage of the gross final energy consumption, and indicates that strong energy-efficiency measures should be applied.
