This approach, called the 3E theory (Energy-Economy-Ecology), is expressed as the most important development criteria of the 21st century. In this direction, Turkey&#39;s main policies and measures focus on sectoral areas such as energy, industry, transportation, agriculture, waste and forestry. In the technologically and economically developed world, a new environment-friendly economy and development approach has emerged. In this context, minimizing the pressure on the environment and the use of natural resources in our country, keeping energy and water use at a minimum in the production and consumption chain, and supplying environment-friendly energy resources to the energy market with incentives are the basic pillars of our new development model. In addition, there are other things we can do for competition and development. These include hybrid cars, low-fuel and low-emission technologies, ecological buildings, eco-cities, protection and development of forests, creating a new governance structure based on transparency, accountability and participation, subsidies and financial regulations that are climate-friendly. Orientation to R&amp;D activities and technologies has a key role in the development environment. As a natural consequence of this, national and/or sectoral development strategies and climate policies need to be aligned with institutional structuring and legislation. Turkey, with the vision of being a country that integrates climate change policies with development policies, increases the use of clean and renewable energy resources, and can offer high quality of life and welfare to all its citizens with low carbon intensity by actively participating in international climate change negotiations within the framework of &quot;special conditions&quot;. progresses step by step towards its goals. m Within the framework of the Climate Change Action Plan, we determine a roadmap that sets out our short, medium and long-term targets covering all sectors in our country in the fight against climate change. With this action plan, which we have prepared by anticipating the year 2020, we aim to continue the integration of Turkey&#39;s future goals in the field of development and environment at a breathless pace.

contributing to social and territorial cohesion. Bulgaria aims to reduce the energy intensity of GDP by 50% by 2020, reaching a value of this indicator of 456 Tne/MBO5 compared to its level in 2005, 913.3 The/MBO. The implementation of the measures and policies to be approved with the Energy Strategy of the Republic of Bulgaria 2020 regarding the increase in energy efficiency aims to lead to an improvement in energy efficiency by approximately 25%, or a saving of more than 5 million tons of primary energy compared with the baseline development scenario by 2020. Despite this positive trend, the energy intensity of the national GDP is 89% higher than the EU average (measured by gross domestic energy consumption per unit of GDP and considering purchasing power parity) 302 tne/ 05 compared to 160 tne/ M 05 in the EU. Significantly lower - 42.6%, are the differences between the national and European indicators, measured by final energy consumption. This is an indicator of inefficient use of primary energy resources, which is also confirmed by the ratio between the received energy and the input resources. This ratio for the national energy balance is 49%, and for Europe - 64%. For comparison, this difference of 15 points shows that 3 million tons more energy resources are consumed annually in Bulgaria, representing ~900 million euros more energy costs per year.

In 2012 the Government adopted the "Energy Strategy 2020". The strategy provides future-oriented
impulses for the national energy policy. The focus areas of the concept are the promotion of efficient
energy use, the use of renewable energies, and energy conservation. These goals correspond to the aims of
the EU's 20-20-20 climate package from 2008. Increase the share of renewable energy in total energy use
from 8% to 20% by 2020. Increase the energy efficiency to 20% to stabilize the energy consumption on the
level of 2008 by 2020 and 20% reduction of the CO emission by 2020. The Energy Strategy 2020 also
addressed the need to minimize adverse effects of its proposed measures as required by Art. 2 paragraph 3
of the Kyoto Protocol. The proposed set of measures has been checked against its compatibility with
economic as well as social requirements.
The target of a 14% share of renewable energy in the transport sector is implemented in accordance with the Directive on the promotion of renewable energy (RES II). The proportion of renewable energy in the transport sector will increase, primarily due to the increasing market penetration of electric mobility paired with a high proportion of renewable energy in the electricity mix and a slight increase in the use of sustainably produced biofuels. In 2017, Austria had a share of renewables in the transport sector of around 9.5%. The additional 4.5% to achieve the minimum target of 14% in 2030 can be reached by increasing the share of e-mobility and an increased share of biofuels in gasoline and diesel fuels.
1. Energy efficiency: the Strategy maximizes energy savings up to 51.8% of primary and 27.5% of final energy. Historically, a decreasing trend can be noticed in the primary energy consumption with final energy consumption remaining stable. With North Macedonia being a developing country, it is projected that the GDP growth will amount on average 3.3% per annum, positioning North Macedonia in 2040 to neighbouring EU countries' GDP per capita levels of today. With GDP growth being one of the main drivers for future energy demand, maximization of energy efficiency policies is much needed, as they directly impact emission reductions, decrease import dependence, and stimulate domestic economy with local job opportunities. In all three scenarios, North Macedonia will use less resources to cover the same needs, with the decoupling of consumption starting from 2020 but with different rates per scenario. As a first step, it is important to determine the ambition level by setting the national EE targets for 2020 and 2030, where the Strategy results could serve as a good basis. The biggest energy savings can be achieved in primary energy consumption, mostly due to decrease of coal consumption in the Moderate transition and Green scenario. Also, the overall improvement of EE at supply side and continuous reduction of losses in distribution network will additionally alleviate primary energy consumption. As for the final energy consumption, it will increase in the future but with considerably lower rates in the Moderate transition and Green scenario, due to more progressive EE measures. Therefore, it is important to continue the usage of existing EE measures and introduce new ones for household and commercial sector. The Strategy puts additional focus on EE in transport and industry sectors as the biggest contributors in the final energy consumption, especially after 2025. For DH systems, the goal should be to improve the efficiency, especially via systematical reconstructions of distribution network. All planned EE measures need to be monitored so that those which prove to be more impactful on energy consumption could be further stimulated for implementation. 3. Decarbonisation: In the Green scenario in 2040 the Strategy decreases GHG emissions up to 61.5% vs. 2005 or 72.8% vs. BAU, while strongly increasing the usage of RES in a sustainable manner up to 45% in gross final energy consumption. Even though North

Land use policies By means of urban structure development measures, emission reductions amounting to 0.4 Mt CO a year can be achieved by 2030 compared to the basic scenario. The most significant solutions that concern cutting emissions are associated with sustainable urban development: urban structure and effective functioning of urban subregions, coordination of land use and transport, creating preconditions for renewable energy production and enabling a low-emission lifestyle. In urban subregions, the preconditions for this include good public transport services and a network of pedestrian and cycling routes, a living and well-functioning city centre and good accessibility of recreational and green areas. Effective urban subregions are a prerequisite for a thriving business life and Finland's competitiveness. There may be significant differences between the practical solutions used to reduce emissions in different parts of the country. In land use planning and construction and when making efforts to develop the steering of these sectors, preparation is made for utilising solar power. In land use planning, Finland will prepare to utilise extensively the country's wind power potential. In order to minimise the negative impacts of wind power plants, an effort will primarily be made to centralised wind power construction in large units at a sufficient distance from permanent housing.
These Regulations amend the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (c. 43) and the Environment Act 1995 (c. 25) for England and Wales in connection with Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on waste/ The Regulations amend the Environmental Protection Act 1990 by inserting sections 59ZB and 59ZC. These sections give a waste regulation authority or waste collection authority (defined respectively in section 30(1) and (3) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990) the power to issue a notice in respect of waste which is unlawfully kept or disposed of in or on land within the authority’s area. They also amend the Environment Act 1995 by inserting sections 109A to 109N. These sections give the Environment Agency and the Natural Resources Body for Wales the power to issue a “restriction notice” and to apply to the courts for a “restriction order”. A restriction notice (section 109A) is a notice prohibiting access and the importation of waste to premises for a period specified in the notice of no more than 72 hours. A restriction order (section 109D) is an order made by the courts which prohibits access and the importation of waste to the premises for a period specified in the order, which may not exceed 6 months. It can be extended, varied or discharged (sections 109F and 109G). A decision of the courts may be appealed (section 109L).
