The national communication submitted under the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change did not give details of the government’s promotion of gas because it was based on a 2013 report, Energy Minister Leo Brincat said.
Replying to a question in Parliament, he said the communication was based on the Report of Policies and Measures 2013, which detailed measures taken until the end of 2012.
The use of gas for energy production forms an essential part of Malta’s strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
