Abstract: Republic of Macedonia, as a candidate country for EU membership since 2005 will have to fulfill the targets set in the Directive 2009/28/EC on the promotion of electricity from renewable energy sources in the internal electricity market, in order to become member of the EU. The Directive defines renewable energy sources as energy from renewable non-fossil sources, namely wind, solar, aerothermal, geothermal, hydrothermal and ocean energy, hydropower, biomass, landfill gas, sewage treatment plant gas and biogases.
