 A considerable interest that has made that electricity produced by private sector reached 43% of net domestic production in 2019. Notwithstanding which the country remains a net importer on average for around one-third of its needs. Notably, in 2019, drought-triggered electricity imports cost by € 209 million and put the power utility KESH and distribution operator into severe financial difficulty.

 In meanwhile, the country has an oil-fuelled power plant of capacity of 98 MW, representing 4% of the total installed capacity, which has not been put into use since its construction in 2011, (due to a failure in its cooling system). In January 2019, the MIE issued a tender inviting for a public-private partnership (PPP), to revive the power plant converting to a natural gas-fuelled plant. Failure of the first attempt of which will make possible in short the released of a new one. In the same time, particular interest presents the project in pipeline CCGT Korça by 480 MW proposed by Austrian company of IVICOM Holding, with feasibility financed by WB/IFC.
-However, the Albania Gas Master Plan (GMP) 2017 sees the rising up to 2.4 bill/m<sup>3</sup> within 2030. The current gas pipeline network of 498 km is mostly not operational. Nevertheless, a sector will have a great chance of developing due to the first quantities of natural gas (already introduced to the commissioning test of the new TAP gas pipeline). In regard, in parallel is going ahead with the Ionian Adriatic Pipeline (IAP) interconnectors and there is a possibility of the constructing of natural gas pipeline between Albania-Kosovo (AlKoGaz).

 Last but not least important, regard the transport, there is a new law approved that establishes 10% of the amount of fuel consumed for transportation in-country should consist of biofuels by 2020. Other initiatives have to do with the smart cities, and electrical taxis or busses considers of the huge benefit that this has in Albania base to the high price of oil and low of the electricity as well as the target of 10% posted by consolidated NREAP 2019-2020.
