CLUSTER INDICATORS 2023 HIGHLIGHTS AND NEXT STEPS Markets and integration A day-ahead electricity market was launched in May 2023 by the market operator MEMO. North Macedonia should focus on the transposition and implementation of the Electricity Integration Package as a precondition for the coupling of its day-ahead market. North Macedonia merged two gas companies into one functional transmission system operator and prepared its unbundling. The gas transmission system operator signed an interconnection agreement with Bulgaria, unlocking a part of hoarded gas capacities. The certification of Nomagas should be finalized. Decarbonising the energy sector North Macedonia has considerably expanded its renewable energy capacities through a self-consumption scheme and has progressed on energy efficiency with a focus on finalising the amendments of the Energy Efficiency Law. North Macedonia should adopt the Renewable Energy Law and the amending the Energy Efficiency Law. Ensuring energy security The regulatory authority adopted cybersecurity rules in June 2023. Regulation (EU) 2019/941 on Risk-preparedness in the Electricity Sector should be transposed and its implementation should start with the designation of a competent authority. North Macedonia should transpose the Security of Gas Supply and the Storage Regulations. Improving the environment North Macedonia achieved limited progress in the area of environment. The long-standing non-compliance with the National Emission Reduction Plan ceilings remains unaddressed. Emission abatement measures must be taken immediately to address this. Performance of authorities The regulatory authority completed the transposition of REMIT by adopting three secondary legal acts. status: November 2023
