Taking into consideration the national energy policy
1.5. How has been the national energy policy taken into consideration when calculating the total amount of allowances for allocation? How can be ensured that the total amount of allowances for allocation complies with Decision 2002/358/ЕС or the Kyoto Protocol?
The climate change prevention targets are synchronized with the main strategic goal for rational use of the energy resources, set in the National energy strategy adopted in 2002 and the targets set in the Long-term National Program for the Promotion of Renewable Energy Sources Use (under preparation). The represented in item 1.4 policies and measures for promotion of energy efficiency ans renewable energy sources use, apart from their direct effect on emission reduction, lead also to reduction of the energy dependence of the country on import and represent structural measures of the energy policy. There is also a significant potential for energy use reduction and thence – of the necessary energy production and the need of allowances for th energy sector, also in sectors, which do not fall directly under Directive 2003/87/ЕC (for example households, transport).
The National Energy Strategy and the Long-term National Program for the Promotion of Renewable Energy Sources Use foresee the following measures:
