The SuDES Project (Sustainable Development in the Energy Sector), financed by EU and managed by the Delegation of the European Union to the Republic of Serbia, assists Serbia in the activities with the main goal to contribute to sustainable development in Serbia by enhancing capacities in the energy sector to efficiently use resources in compliance with the EU energy and climate acquis.
The main purpose of SuDES project is to build capacity in the energy sector which will enable:
- implementation of sustainable energy policy,
- implementation of the Kyoto Protocol and its possible successor,
- increasing the quality of conventional fuels and creating preconditions for placing on the market fuels of biological origin,
- raising the awareness by public campaigns and trainings in sustainable development .
The SuDES project addresses two key issues in the sustainable development of the energy sector in Serbia:
1Kyoto Protocol
and the Energy Sector
This project will support the Ministry for Infrastructure and Energy by improving GHG scenarios in the energy sector, by identifying mitigation measures, by investigation the impact of future obligations as well as any opportunities for participation in carbon financing mechanisms.
2Quality of Liquid Fuels, Fuel Quality Monitoring System (FQMS)
and Biofuels Labeling – Certification System
The project’s second part is focused on the monitoring of the quality of liquid fuels of mineral and biological origin and calculation of the reduction of the GHG emissions requested by the relevant Directives and Decisions of the EU.
The project is implemented by a consortium of Kommunalkredit Public Consulting KPC (Austria), EPTISA (Spain) and the Austrian Environmental Agency UBA. The project is implemented in the period April 2011 to April 2012.
This site provides background information on both topics and information on the project.
