Lithuania has undergone a dramatic transformation in its energy mix, moving from high dependence on Russian imports to a leadership position in renewable electricity. Lithuania’s domestic electricity production is now dominated by low-carbon sources, though it remains a net importer (primarily from Sweden and Poland). Wind Power is the largest domestic source, accounting for approximately 43% of generation. Solar PV is growing rapidly, contributing about 17% of the mix. Hydropower is a stable contributor at approximately 12%.

Lithuania is rapidly developing its green hydrogen sector, targeting a key role in regional decarbonization with projects slated for 2026. Major initiatives include a 3MW plant in Vilnius to fuel public transport and the Baltic region’s first green hydrogen production station at the Port of Klaipėda, designed for vessels and machinery. The Klaipėda State Seaport Authority launched a €12 million hydrogen-powered vessel to manage port waste. Construction is underway on a dedicated green hydrogen production and refueling station at the port. These projects align with broader efforts to transform Lithuania into a green energy hub, connecting local production with industrial and transport needs.
