Country programme

The Country Programme for Phasing-out Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer was prepared in 1996. The strategy of the Republic of Macedonia through the Action Plan for phasing-out substances that deplete the ozone layer is given in the Country Programme.

Macedonia is not a producer, but rather a consumer of ODS. The total consumption of ODS in 1996 was 560 MT and 75% out of the total consumption is in the sectors of foams and refrigerators.

Several projects have been proposed in the Country Programme for accelerated phase-out of ODS. All projects are technically and financially supported by the Multilateral Fund of the Montreal Protocol, through UNIDO, as an implementing Agency.

Consumption of the ozone depleting substances in the 1995-2005 period in the Republic of Macedonia:

ODP: ozone depleting potential
ODP tonnes: quantity of the consumed ODSs in metric tonnes multiplied by the ODP value.
