  1. Politechnic University Institute of Energy, Water and Environment Department for Technologies of Energy AlbaniaGeneral status of biomass, & national initiatives Orjeta Jaupaj & Bashkim Lushaj

  2. Country profile Area:28,748 km2 Arable land:20.1% Permanent crops:4.21% Forest land:36% Others: 39.80%

  3. Energy consumption 10-50% imported 66% imported

  4. RES consumption • Biomass – woods • Hydro • Solar • Wind • Geothermal • Tide • Salt RES

  5. Draw-backs • Electricity shortages (droughts) Hydro • High deforestation rates (Inefficient traditional stoves Woods-Bio

  6. - Legal Framework - • Access to networks Privileged status not applicable (Law No. 9072) up to date • Fiscal facilities exemption from LawNo. 8987 custom duties • Feed-in-tariff unstable value Decree No. 27, date 19.01.2007 • legal restrictions 2% RES for producers Decree No. 338, with capacity >100 MW date 19.03.2008

  7. Targets –Law No. 9876 Heat/electricity RF Transport Total 3% (-2015) – 3% 10% (-2020) – 10%

  8. Assessment Activities 1. Biomass potential assessment for bioenergy production in Albania Project Time period: 2007 – 2009 Funded by: Ministry of Education and Science Data management: paper based

  9. Theoretical analysis: + • Economical analysis: • + • Technical analysis • Achievable analysis • – • input data • statistical bulletins • interviews • system boundaries • national • regional level • output data • Scenario calculation

  10. 2. Analysis of Biomass residues potential for electrical energy generation in Albania Article Sh. Karaj, T. Rehla, H. Leis and J. Müller Universität Hohenheim, Institute of Agricultural Engineering (440e), Garbenstr. 9, Renewable and Sustainable Energy ReviewsVolume 14, Issue 1January 2010 pp 493-499

  11. Theoretical analysis: + • Technical analysis: • + • Economical analysis • Achievable analysis • – • input data • statistical bulletins • system boundaries • national & regional level • output data • Snapshot View

  12. Recommendation • detailed studies on energy crops production • quantification of different flows of non-used biomass (saw mills) • Detailed research of ecologically sustainable use of biomass • more detailed research of economical and achievable scenarios • suitable incentive measures, and investment methods identification

  13. Selection of target areas and focused studies • Further collaboration with other research and academic institutions.
