 Since energy prices are heavily subsidised in all economic sectors in Libya, it is difficult to foster renewable energies and energy efficiency on a cost-effective basis. Renewable energies are not utilised in significant amounts and only 5 MW solar energy, separated into several small PV projects, have been installed yet.<ref name="RCREEE, Provision of Technical Support/Services for an Economical, Technological and Environmental Impact Assessment of National Regulations and Incentives Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency, Country Report Libya, http://www.rcreee.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/RS_CountryReport_Libya_2009_EN.pdf">RCREEE, Provision of Technical Support/Services for an Economical, Technological and Environmental Impact fckLRAssessment of National Regulations and Incentives Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency, Country Report Libya, http://www.rcreee.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/RS_CountryReport_Libya_2009_EN.pdf</ref><ref name="RCREEE Country Prolile Renewable Energy in Libya 2012, http://www.rcreee.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/RCREEE_CountryProfile_RE_2012_EN_Libya.pdf">RCREEE Country Prolile Renewable Energy in Libya 2012, http://www.rcreee.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/RCREEE_CountryProfile_RE_2012_EN_Libya.pdf</ref>
