Albania's potential for growth in solar energy is underscored by its renewable energy auction program, which has already begun to attract interest from both local and foreign firms.
So far, the solar auctions have produced two PV projects with a total of 240 MW. Albania reports 7 GW of wind and solar potential and is looking into developing ofshore wind in the Adriatic Sea. The availability of renewable energy resources in Albania for some renewable energy technologies is less studied than for others.
While Albania has considerable wind potential, particularly in areas like the Lezhe mountains along the Adriatic coast, solar energy is forecasted to outpace wind development in the coming years. BloombergNEF projects that wind energy will reach 370 megawatts of installed capacity by 2030, which is less than half of the forecasted solar growth.
The Albanian authorities aim to allocate 300 MW of solar capacity through a new procurement exercise, with projects ranging from 10 MW to 100 MW. Solar Energy of Albania (SENA) aims to develop a 12.9 MW floating solar project on a lake in northwestern Albania, next to an existing hydropower plant.
Creation of a smart energy infrastructure: Supporting solar and wind energy source projects to diversify the renewable energy portfolio, harnessing Albania's ample sunlight and wind resources for clean power generation.
Albanian researchers say that solar could be key to reducing Albania's reliance on energy imports, but the nation will need to invest in grid infrastructure, streamline laws, and enhance access to funding to support deployment.
