+== Introduction ==
 North Macedonia has shown an increasing interest in renewable energy sources to diversify its energy mix, reduce dependence on fossil fuels, and meet environmental targets. The government has implemented various policies and initiatives to promote the development of renewable energy projects.
 North Macedonia has historically relied on hydropower for a significant portion of its electricity generation. The country has utilized its rivers to develop hydropower plants. There have been also efforts to harness wind energy, and several wind projects have been proposed or are under development. Solar energy projects, particularly solar photovoltaic (PV) installations, have gained attention. The government has implemented programs to incentivize the adoption of solar technologies.Biomass and biogas have been explored as potential sources of renewable energy.
