Latvia

Latvia’s energy mix is characterized by one of the highest shares of renewable energy in the European Union, primarily driven by domestic hydropower and biomass. Renewables dominated electricity generation, accounting for roughly 71–76% of domestic production depending on water inflow for hydro. The updated National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) aims for a 61% share of renewables in gross final consumption and 100% renewable electricity for domestic use by 2030.

Latvia is rapidly developing its green hydrogen sector, aiming to become a regional production hub, with a major 150,000-ton annual production project planned in Liepāja. Driven by EU climate goals and energy independence, key initiatives include partnerships for renewable-powered electrolyzers, cross-border value chains (H2Value) in the Baltic region, and active research into reducing production costs.

Despite these important plans, no information is available indicating that as of 2026 Latvia is producing green hydrogen.
