The Armenia Country Climate and Development Report (CCDR) outlines a path to a resilient, low-carbon future, highlighting the shift from gas to solar as a key step toward energy
Armenia''s power, heating, and transport sectors rely heavily on imported natural gas, accounting for two-thirds of the country''s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Armenia is also highly vulnerable to the
In 2017 the energy sector emissions decreased by 3.2 times compared to the year 1990, while Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES) decreased by 2.4 times, which is an evidence of low-carbon
In 2021, the Government approved the NDC planning to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40% by 2030, compared to 1990 emission levels. In the long term, the Government
For Armenia''s NDC 3.0, mitigation measures in the energy sector are focused on increasing the share of solar energy use and reducing fugitive emissions, based on national and sectoral policy documents.
In particular, the focus will be on low-carbon sources, which do not have direct carbon emissions that would affect the climate and are seen as critical in discussions on climate change and energy
By Intended nationally determined contributions 2015 (INDC), the Government has set a long-term target for GHG emissions reduction until 2050, declaring the intention to achieve ecosystem climate
To meet this goal, the country is driving emission reductions across key sectors, including energy, industrial processes, agriculture, waste, forestry and land use. A major pillar of Armenia''s mitigation
The Republic of Armenia aims to mitigate the impacts of climate change in the country and at the same time acknowledges the importance of global eforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Armenia aims to achieve a 40% reduction in its greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, compared to 1990 levels, indicating a strong commitment to embedding sustainable practices across
