Target 10% level of electricity interconnection by 2020 and 15% in 2030

Target 10% of energy used in transport to be from renewables by 2020 and 15% by 2030

Target 23% of gross final energy consumption to be from renewables by 2020 and 45% by 2030

Target 15% increase in GHG reduction outside the EU ETS (compared to 2005) by 2020 and 9% reduction by 2030

Target 21% reduction in GHG emissions in the EU ETS sectors (compared to 2005) by 2020 and 43% reduction by 2030

Target 20% reduction in GHG emissions (compared to 1990) by 2020 and 40% by 2030

Target 45% share of renewables in final energy consumption by 2030

In non-ETS sectors, GHG emissions must be reduced at least by 9 per cent compared to 2005.&nbsp;

In sectors covered by the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), GHG emissions must be reduced by 43% compared to the 2005 levels.&nbsp;

To reduce GHG emissions from all sectors of economy by at least 40% compared to 1990.

20-30% cut in GHG emissions by 2020 compared with a 1990 baseline

No more than 15% growth in baseline GHG emissions by 2020 compared with a 2005 baseline

20% increase in energy efficiency by 2020

Up to 20% increase in renewables of final energy consumption by 2020

The National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) is a ten-year integrated document <a href="https://ec.europa.eu/energy/topics/energy-strategy/national-energy-climate-plans_en" target="_self">mandated by the European Union</a> to each of its member states in order for the EU to meet its overall greenhouse gases emissions targets. Following feedback from an EU-wide assessment of draft NECP submissions, EU members are required to submit updated final NECPs for the period 2021-2030. The Energy and Climate Plan addresses all five dimensions of the EU Energy Union: decarbonisation, energy efficiency, energy security, internal energy markets and research, innovation and competitiveness.
The objectives and targets set out in the plan are: 1) to ensure the quality and sustainability of the use of natural resources, 2) to mitigate Lithuania's impact on climate change and increase its climate resilience; 3) to improve the competitiveness of the energy sector; 4) to integrate the Lithuanian natural gas market into the single EU gas market; 5) to connect the Lithuanian power system with the continental European power system for synchronous operation; 6) to ensure the adequacy of the Lithuanian electricity market and power system and increase the share of local electricity generation, 7) to increase the consumption of renewable and alternative fuels in the transport sector and promote sustainable intermodal mobility, 8) to increase the share of renewable energy sources in domestic energy production and gross final energy consumption (aiming to reach 55% by 2030), 8) to improve the energy efficiency and use of energy from renewable sources in residential, public and other buildings.
