Energy Community decision, MEI reacts - Ministry: There is no punitive measure, deliberate disinformation
The Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy has reacted to the decision of the Ministerial Council of the Energy Community, regarding Albania's failure to fulfill its obligations under the Energy Community Treaty.
Through a press statement, this department explained that there has not been, does not exist, and no decision has been taken by the EU (its bodies) towards Albania, as has been presented in some media.
"Any claim in this regard is a pure media fabrication. The discussions held recently have been only at the level of the Energy Secretariat, a technical structure specifically created to assist non-member countries and promote the development of the energy sector in line with the standards of EU countries. During the Energy Secretariat meeting held last week, general measures were identified that must be fulfilled by all member countries (of this Treaty) by July 2026. In the case of Albania, the request consists of the approximation of the law on the energy sector with EU Regulations, a normal and planned process, for which the draft law and other acts have been completed, published for public consultation and some approved. The presentation of this procedure as a "punishment" or "exclusion" is a blatant manipulation of the facts and a pure, deliberate, and coordinated attack on the Albanian energy sector," the ministry's statement said, adding that in no official report of The Energy Community does not mention penalties or causes for non-fulfillment of obligations for the Roskovec TPP, floating thermal power plants, the interconnection network or others.
Also, according to the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy, their inclusion in this news constitutes a deliberate manipulation, which has no factual basis and only aims to damage Albania's image in the energy field and in the European integration process, clearly realizing the malicious plan of various factors that are active at these moments.
Referring to the decision of the Ministerial Council of the Energy Community, Albania must immediately take measures to correct the violations by July 1, 2026, otherwise it risks measures under the Treaty.
