The Lithuanian parliament, the Seimas, has rubber-stamped a new national energy independence plan that targets 70% of consumption being met by renewables-led domestic generation by 2030, with all power produced in-country “from clean sources” by mid-century.

The strategy aims to have 45% of total electricity and as much as 90% of heat energy in the Baltic state coming from renewable energy sources by the end of the next decade, rising to supply 80% of Lithuania's total energy consumption by 2050.
