6 FAQs about [Cyprus nat energy]
Who is responsible for implementing national energy and climate policies in Cyprus?
Administrative structure of implementing national energy and climate policies The institution responsible for energy issues in Cyprus is the Ministry of Energy, Commerce and Industry, while climate change is the responsibility of the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment and in particular the Department of Environment.
Does Cyprus have solar power?
With almost year-round sunshine, Cyprus certainly has plenty of energy to harness, but competitive energy storing capabilities are crucial in order to fully tap into its solar potential and facilitate better RES penetration.
What are Cyprus' energy goals?
For the heating and cooling sector, Cyprus foresees a target of 39.4%. In the transport sector, Cyprus plans to achieve 14% share of renewable energy by 2030. Cyprus supports PV and biogas/biomass for electricity production, while it also leans on onshore wind to achieve RES targets.
Does Cyprus comply with the energy union governance regulation?
Existing policies and measures (Stage 1 of the national climate policy) are clearly insufficient to lead Cyprus to compliance with its obligations stemming from the Energy Union Governance Regulation.
How does Cyprus support the energy sector?
For the heating and cooling sector, Cyprus supports solar thermal and use of heat. Finally the transport targets are planned to be met through electrification of transport and use of biofuels.
How does Cyprus generate electricity?
Cyprus supports PV and biogas/biomass for electricity production, while it also leans on onshore wind to achieve RES targets. Most RES electricity is connected through net-metering where it assumes energy is used for own consumption and surplus injected to the grid. Cyprus is currently not interconnected.
