COOPERBased on the geological conditions of ophiolites position, their morphology, genetic and mineralogical components, etc., are distinguished four main types of copper deposits, as: Hydrothermal-Methasomatic and Volcanogenic-Sedimentary Deposits, as: Munella, Qaf-Bari, Gurthi, Rruga Rinise, etc.Main type Volcanogenic-Hydrothermal-Methasomatic Deposits, as: Tui, Spaci, Derven, Paluca, etc.Volcanogene-Sedimentary Deposits, as: Munella, Gjegjan, Palaj, Karma, Rubik Metasomatic Sulphide Massif Deposits, as: Kurbneshi, Golaj, Thirra, Nikoliqi, etc. Copper: 53 million tons with 1.3-2.5% Cu

NICKELThe mineral of nickel in Albania is located mainly in 3 regions:Devoll (Bilishti, Bitincka, etc)Pogradec-Librazhd (Guri Kuq, Cervenaka, etc), (Prrenjasi, Skroska, Xixillasi, Bushtrica)Kukes (Mamez, Trull Surroj, Nome)The nickel is in form of iron-nickel (Pogradec, Librazhd) of a grade of 0.8-1.1 % Ni and in form of nickel-silicate (Devoll, Kukes) of a grade of 1.11.4 % Ni.

Central region, about 86% of reserves;South-east region, 10% of reserves;South region, 4% of reserves.Coal reserves in Albania are approximately 794 million tons, located in three main regions:Deposits of CoalCoal in general is of lignit type.Calorific value in coal: 2000-5600 kcal/kgFOSSIL FUEL SOURCES COAL

The wind regime in Albania is closely connected with the regime of baric centres, with its position relating to these centres, with the direct influence of Adriatic and Ionian Seas.

Wind Energy is a potential possibility for power generation use in Albania.

The average speed of wind, throughout the year, is around 4-6 m/s (10 m height) and the average annual energy density of 150 W/m2. Annual average wind speedWIND ENERGY

In Albania, average annual solar radiation is 1500 kWh/m2; Maximal annual radiation is 2200 kWh/m2;The annual sunshine of the whole territory of Albania is about 240-250 days;In Western coastal part and South-Western, the sunshine duration, is about 260-270 days per year. RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCESAverage quantity of sunny daysSOLAR ENERGY

Total proven reserves on wood resources as fuel is about 6 Mtoe; Wood resources production for 2007, is 215 Ktoe/year;Wood resources are classified in : High forests, which represent 47-50% of the total wood resources;Cropses, which are 29-30% of total wood resources;Bushes, which are 24-25% of total wood resources.WOOD RESOURCES

Nje pershkrim i shkurter i te dhenave makroekonomike te Shqiperise, me theks ne stabilitetin makroekonomik

Economic growth beyond 6%; National Income per capita about USD 4,000 USD in 2010; Inflation 3.5%;Foreign Direct investments have reached over 1 Billion USD in 2010. Unemployment reduced to 13.2 percent;High export growth rate of 25 percent/per year in the years 2006-2010;

*Besoj se ketu mund te thuhet se Shqiperia eshte shume e pasur me burime natyrore, ujra, minerare, dite me diell, biomase etj,

Duke bere nje hapje per te gjithe prezantimin, dhe duke shprehur ate qe do te trajtosh ne prezantimin tend****Sektori i energjise elektrike ne Shqiperi i eshte nenshtruar nje reforme te thelle qe prej vitit 2006. Tregu i energjise elektrike ne Shqiperi eshte i liberalizuar plotesisht:eshte liberalizuar prodhimi i energjise elektrike, tregtimi dhe transmetimi i saj (thekso third party access)

Eshte ndare prodhimi nga trasnmetimi dhe nga shprendarja, kjo e fundit eshte privatizuar me suksesNe vitin 2006 ne kemi miratuar ligjin per Koncesionet , i cili i ka hapur rrugen investimeve te medha ne sektorin e prodhimit nepermjet formules se PPP.

Ky ligj eshte ne perputhje te plote me praktikat me te mira boterore per trajtimin me koncesion te objekteve apo pasurive te ndryshme. Ky ligj, per sektorin elektrik, jo vetem qe siguron perzgjedhjen e projekteve energjetike me te mira, per nje shfrytezim sa me optimal te burimeve, por ne menyre te veante, siguron nje transparence te larte ne realizimin e garave, ku mund te marrin pjese pa dallim kompani vendas apo te huaja.

Keshtu, jane nenshkruar rreth 110 kontrata koncesionare, qe parashikojne ndertimin e rreth 300 hidrocentraleve, me fuqi te instaluar prej rreth 1 400 MW dhe qe parashikohet te ndertohen me nje financim prej rreth 3 miliarde Euro.**

Nje pershkrim i shkurter i ketyre projeteve: thirrje investitoreve te marrin pjese:

Garat do te hapen brenda pranveres se vitit 2012. Kuadri yne rregullator eshte transparent, ne nxisim dhe mbeshtesim te gjitha investimet e huaja

Shqiperia eshte ne te njeten kohe edhe mjaft e pasur me hidrokarbure, nje pjese e tyre e zbuluar por ka ende rezerva te medha te pazbuluara:

Ne total jane 7 kompani qe bejne shfrytezim/ekstraktim dhe 7 qe bejne kerkim ne territorin e Shqiperise.

Ne krakasim me vinin 2005 prodhimi i naftes eshte dyfishuar dhe ka arritur ne 850.000 ton ose afersisht 5.5 milion fuci (barrel)

Kuadri yne rregullator eshte plotesisht i njejte me ate te vendeve te tjera te BE-se*

Albpetroli do te privatizohet:

mund ta permendesh si mundesi per investime

*

Shqiperia eshte shume e pasur me minerare.

Kuadri yne rregullator eshte ne perputhje me praktikat me te mira boterore legjislative minerare.

Parimi i aplikuar eshte first to come, first to serve

Qeveria shqiptare nxit dhe mbeshtet ardhjen e investitoreve te cilet duan te ndertojne edhe industri perpunimi.

Sot Shqiperia ka industri te perpunimit te krom,it dhe prodhimit te ferrokromit. *Rezervat e minerareve ne Shqiperi

Ne Shqiperi jane prezent kompani si:

Tyrex kanadeze

Beroner Turke baker

Jab Resources krom

Hamilton Krom

Shqiperi po terheq gjithnje e me shume investime te medha ne energjine e eres.

Kontratat te nenshkruara arrijne vleren e 3 miliard eurosh, jane licencuar 8 kompani te cilat po vazhdojne punimet

Kuadri yne rregullator i percankon si licenca proceduren perkatese per kete sipermarrje.

Ligji yne per energjine e rinovueshme percakton qartazi feed-in-taiffs per te gjitha llojet e energjise se rinovueshme: uje, ere, diell, biomase etj

Shqiperia gjithashtu mirepret edhe investimet ne energjine diellore
