A proposed environment and energy ministry bill to simplify the licensing of renewable energy sources (RES), which was revealed for public consultation on Wednesday, will give municipalities and regional authorities incentives for the installation of RES units in order to provide cheaper energy to vulnerable consumers and households living below the poverty line, ANA reports.
The proposed bill aims to reduce the average licensing time for new RES projects to 14 months from five years, increase the capacity of the electricity network to include more RES units, and develop electricity storage projects with an installed capacity of at least 3.5 GW by 2030.
