Albania’s revised NDC presents a greater overall emissions reduction target of 20.9 percent below BAU, or a 6.674 ktCO2e reduction from 2021 to 2030. The revised NDC contains more robust historical emissions data and an increased scope in mitigation targets, including the land use, land-use change, and forestry; industrial processes and product use; agriculture; energy (excluding international transport); and waste sectors. As part of the NDC Partnership Climate Action Enhancement Package, FAO, GIZ, IRENA, and UNDP supported the government’s commendable efforts to enhance the revision process by including additional sectors and increasing sectoral target ambition, as well as raising awareness on climate change among local communities in the country. Looking ahead, Albania will mainstream the updated NDC into midterm budgeting, develop a monitoring, reporting, and evaluation system with support, and engage with the private sector for further implementation. Upon the updated NDC’s submission, MTE and MIE will work with GIZ – NDC assist (BMZ funds) to begin implementing pilot actions identified in the NDC, including regional exchanges, NDC promotion in the private sector, and mobilizing additional funds. Albania also has deployed an Economic Advisor embedded to the Ministry of Finance and Economy supported by the World Bank.
