Albania is a small and developing country with a fragile economy that relies mainly on the service sector, and industry and agriculture, which is facing many challenges in addressing the risks posed by climate change. In 2019 the service sector (represented by the subsectors of trade, transport, commercial activities, and telecommunication services) accounted for about 50% of the country's GDP; Industry and construction accounted for about 20% of GDP and the agriculture sector contributed to about 19% of the GDP. The structure of the industry sector in Albania shows that there are three main industry sectors that consume the highest percentage of energy: (1) food industry, (2) metal production and processing, (3) construction material sector. The National Strategy for Climate Change and Action Plan (NSCCAC) 2020–2030 is the main strategic document that addresses climate changes in Albania with objectives for 2050, approved in 2019. The focus of that strategy is climate change mitigation and adaptation in Albania. While progress has been made in the decarbonization of other sectors of the economy, the industrial sector, even at the European level, is considered the next front and the most expensive sector to decarbonize. Among the most effective measures for the decarbonization of this sector, mention: replacement of fossil fuels with non-hazardous waste in the Albanian cement industry, “electrification” of industrial processes, use of biomass and waste as a fuel, improvement of energy efficiency, application of the emissions trading system, the use of hydrogen as fuel, carbon capture and storage.
