Plug-In PV in Multi-Family Houses: Is a Breakthrough Possible in Lithuania?
There are proposals for such cases from German experts but those do not agree with Lithuanian regulations and therefore are not applicable in this Baltic country.
In the recently revised NECP draft submitted to the European Commission, 3. Lithuania has increased its goal to increase solar capacity by 500% in 2030, reaching 5.1 GW. This is a significant rise compared to the current NECPs, making Lithuania the country with the largest increase in solar targets relative to the existing NECPs.
As of February 2024, Lithuania boasts over 61,000 prosumers and 800 MW of solar capacity. Moreover, from the 3rd of March 2024 from 12:00 to 14:00, Lithuanian renewable consumption for the first time reached 100%, through the means of national wind and solar production.
Moreover, from the 3rd of March 2024 from 12:00 to 14:00, Lithuanian renewable consumption for the first time reached 100%, through the means of national wind and solar production. This country profile highlights the good and the bad policies and practices of solar rooftop PV development within Lithuania .
Lithuania has been significantly expanding its solar parks, growing from zero in early 2000s to 814 MW capacity in 2022. Lithuania is a net energy importer. In 2019 Lithuania used around 11.4 TWh of electricity after producing just 3.6 TWh. Systematic diversification of energy imports and resources is Lithuania's key energy strategy.
