Montenegro Progress Reports under Renewable Energy Directive 2009/28/EC as adapted by the Ministerial Council Decision 2012/04/MC-EnC INTRODUCTION Pursuant to Directive 2009/28/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources and amending and subsequently repealing Directives 2001/77/EC and 2003/30/EC (Text with EEA relevance) (hereinafter: the Directive), the Republic of Montenegro assumed the obligation to increase the use of renewables to reach at least a 33% share of energy from renewable sources in gross final consumption at the EU level by 2020. Article 22 of the Directive requires Member States to submit a report to the Commission on progress in the promotion and use of energy from renewable sources by 31 December 2011, and every two years thereafter. The sixth report, to be submitted by 31 December 2021, is the last report required. Member State reports are important for monitoring overall renewable energy policy developments and Member State compliance with the measures set out in the Directive and the National Renewable Energy Action Plan of each Member State. The data included in these reports will also serve to measure the impacts referred to in Article 23 of the Directive. The report by the Republic of Montenegro on progress in the promotion and use of energy from renewable sources, pursuant to Article 22 of Directive 2009/28/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources, was prepared according to the template for Member State progress reports under Directive 2009/28/EC, which is available on the website of the European Commission's Directorate General for Energy. The purpose of the template is to help ensure that the reports prepared by Member States are complete, cover all the requirements laid down in Article 22 of the Directive and are comparable with other reports and National Renewable Energy Action Plans. Much of the template draws on the template for the National Renewable Energy Action Plans1. The template has been filled out in accordance with the definitions, calculation rules and terminology laid down in Directive 2009/28/EC and Regulation (EC) No 1099/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council. 2 1. Sectoral and overall shares and actual consumption of energy from renewable sources in the preceding 2 years (2015 and 2014) (Article 22 (1) a) of Directive 2009/28/EC).

The same methodology as in Table 3 of NREAPs applies. 3 Share of renewable energy in electricity: gross final consumption of electricity from renewable sources for electricity (as defined in Articles 5(1)a) and 5(3) of Directive 2009/28/ECdivided by total gross final consumption of electricity. The same methodology as in Table 3 of NREAPs applies. 4 Share of renewable energy in transport: final energy from renewable sources consumed in transport (cf. Article 5(1)c) and 5(5)of Directive 2009/28/EC divided by the consumption in transport of 1) petrol; 2) diesel; 3) biofuels used in road and rail transport and 4) electricity in land transport (as reflected in row 3 of Table 1). The same methodology as in Table 3 of NREAPs applies. 5 Share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption. The same methodology as in Table 3 of NREAPs applies. 6 In percentage point of overall RES share. 7 In percentage point of overall RES share. 8 Facilitates comparison with Table 4a of the NREAPs 9 According to Art. 5(1) of Directive 2009/28/EC gas, electricity and hydrogen from renewable energy sources shall only be considered once. No double counting is allowed. 3 Table 1b: Total actual contribution (installed capacity, gross electricity generation) from each renewable energy technology in Montenegro to meet the binding 2020 targets and the indicative interim trajectory for the shares of energy from renewable resources in electricity10 2015 2014 MW GWh MW GWh Hydro 11: 669.2 1459.9 658.5 1716.1 non pumped <1MW 5.7 9.85 2.0 3.0 1MW–10 MW 14.5 35.7 7.5 26.1 >10MW 649.0 1414.4 649.0 1687.0 pumped mixed12 Geothermal Solar: photovoltaic 0.9 2.1 0.9 1.9 concentrated solar power Tide, wave, ocean Wind: onshore offshore Biomass13: solid biomass biogas bioliquids TOTAL 669.2 1462.0 658.5 1718.0 of which in CHP Table 1c: Total actual contribution (final energy consumption14) from each renewable energy technology in Montenegro to meet the binding 2020 targets and the indicative interim trajectory for the shares of energy from renewable resources in heating and cooling (ktoe)15 2015 2014 Geothermal (excluding low temperature - - geothermal heat in heat pump applications) Solar 0.2 1.1 Biomass16: 99.1 88.4 solid biomass 99.1 88.4 biogas - - bioliquids - - Renewable energy from heat pumps: 6.2 4.9 - of which aerothermal 4.1 3.7 - of which geothermal 2.1 2.2 - of which hydrothermal 0 0 TOTAL 111.7 94.5 17 Of which DH - - Of which biomass in households18 88.1 75.1 10 Facilitates comparison with Table 10a of the NREAPs. 11 Normalised in accordance with Directive2009/28/EC and Eurostat methodology. 12 In accordance with new Eurostat methodology. 13 Take into account only those complying with applicable sustainability criteria, cf.
