Due to the guarantee of a sustainable development of the Albanian economy and the aim of guaranteeing energy security of supply, the energy infrastructure is considered of high importance. The trans-boundary element of this infrastructure is considered a key element with regard to the protection of the energy infrastructure. To ensure security in the construction and operation of the TAP pipeline, the Albanian state institutions have defined commitments and concrete tasks which are included in the document of Host Governmental Agreement. Taking into account the potential threats has made the successful development of the TAP project in Albania possible. The state administration has always been very supportive of the project. Albania has a considerable experience with the Protection of Critical Energy Infrastructure that might be applied to secure the TAP.
