EU Environmental approximation in the WB and Turkey- ETNAR Conference Climate, transport and energy policy analysis in Montenegro Jelena Marojevic-Galic Green Home Palic, September 24 th to 26 th 2013

Climate Montenegro has still not formulated its climate policy non-Annex I country - does not have binding commitments to reduce emissions under UNFCCC and Kyoto Protocol. Candidate Country for the EU, it is obliged to gradually align legal and policy set up with ambitious and complex EU climate policies. First National Communication on Climate Change adopted in Contains two scenarios: reference scenario and the measures to reduce GHG emissions. Study "The economic impacts of climate change in Montenegro“ 2010 “Technology Needs Assessment (TNA) for climate change mitigation and adaptation in Montenegro”, guide prepared in 2011/2012 The base year for inventory of GHG emissions is 1990 Second National Communication in preparation, GHG inventory

Transport Transport Development Strategy" does not mention the transport in terms of promoting its sustainable aspects. Transport integrated in energy policy (Energy Strategy to 2030) Significant share of final energy consumption (28%) According High scenario of EDS final energy consumption in transport will increase by 80%. since 2010 to 2030 Disel remains the dominant energy source, and a portion of the diesel fuel will be actually biodiesel

Lists of energy efficiency measures that could be implemented in the transport sector: The criteria for the introduction of energy efficiency and environmental protection in investment in transport infrastructure; More stringent requirements for environmental performance of vehicles; To promote the use of energy-efficient means of transport; More efficient use of transport and infrastructure through the use of improved systems for transport management and information systems, advanced logistics, market size, etc.; Special measures for improving EE in public and municipal transport, freight companies. Including driver training, effective vehicle maintenance, the introduction of EE criteria for vehicles and vehicle modernization program, more effective systems for fleet management, etc..; Public awareness raising general awareness regarding the purchase of energy-efficient vehicles, alternative fuel vehicles, vehicle maintenance efficient, energy-conscious driving, use of bicycles for short destinations instead of driving cars and using public transport in medium or long distances, etc.

Energy Energy Development Strategy until 2025 (EDS, adopted in 2007), Energy Policy of Montenegro (EP, adopted in 2011), Strategy on energy efficiency Field of renewable energy is not treated by a special law or strategy but it is processed in the framework of the Energy Law and EDS EDS 2030 in process of adoptions Target for renewable energy - 33% October 2012 ECT The energy efficiency target - to achieve 9% energy savings by 2018

Undersea cable MNE – IT Case Agreement between Montenegrin Ministry of economy, CGES and Terna signed in November According SEA and DSP transmission line will pass through 2 NPs, 4 Emerald areas (Natura 2000) UNESCO Converter plant location habitat for Juncetalia maritime which is found in Annex 1 of the European Directives on habitats Not aligned with higher level plans such as the Spatial Plan of Montenegro until 2020, Spatial Plan for the Special Purpose Coastal Zone, NP Lovcen and NP Durmitor as well as the relevant international legislation in this area. A serious analysis of alternative solutions is hindered by the lack of clear analysis of Montenegro's needs and the extent to which Montenegro does or does not have an energy deficit or surplus
