Solar energy is the main driver of the sector’s development. The installed capacity of solar power stations has risen from 16.25 MW in 2018 to 808.34 MW in July 2026. Wind energy also plays an important role in the mix of renewable sources, with an installed capacity of 256.22 MW.
The capacity of hydroelectric power stations is 16.75 MW, whilst that of biogas plants is 8.39 MW.
In this context, the Ministry of Energy is proposing to reintroduce high-efficiency syngas-based cogeneration plants, which simultaneously produce electricity and heat, into the support scheme. Up to 20 MW would be allocated to these plants through the reallocation of already approved capacities.
The changes would allow agricultural waste and solid biofuels to be used for energy production, whilst also contributing to the diversification of supply sources and strengthening the country’s energy security.
The authorities note that there is interest from potential investors in developing such projects.
The draft is due to be approved by the Government.
