Today, the Government of the Republic of Moldova, represented by the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection, the Ministry of Energy, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Environment, signed the Memorandum of Understanding “Green Reform for Moldova” with the French Development Agency.

The document provides for the implementation of an Energy Policy Loan Programme to support the Government’s reform efforts to propel the energy sector towards a greener future, with a particular focus on reforms in energy infrastructure, energy efficiency, renewable energy, support for vulnerable energy consumers and environmental protection.
