What is the new government of North Macedonia?

Seven months ago, the new government of North Macedonia took office, marking the kickoff for the establishment of the Ministry of Energy, Mining, and Mineral Resources. According to the Minister, Sanja Božinovska, the ministry has been built from the ground up.

Does North Macedonia have a natural gas network?

North Macedonia doesn’t have a significantly developed natural gas network, there is only one interconnector with Bulgaria. When the ministry was established, the European Investment Bank (EIB) and EBRD informed it that the tendering procedure for the interconnector with Greece had been canceled.

Could the North Macedonia – Serbia interconnector be a transit route?

The country has signed the memorandum on the North Macedonia – Serbia interconnector and the preparation of the feasibility study is underway. This pipeline, in her words, could be a transit route for the transportation of gas from Greece to Central Europe. “The plan is also to increase the use of gas in households, to lower air pollution.
