The Lithuanian Law on Energy from Renewable Sources enetered into force on 12 May 2011 . The Law transposes EU acquis communautaire on the energy sector embodied in following Directives: 2009/28/EC, 2009/72/EC and 2009/73/EC.

The Law establishes the legal framework for administration, regulation and control over renewable energy sector in Lithuania. The Law regulates system of Feed-in tariffs.

Main objectives of the Law:

To ensure sustainable development of the renewable energy sector

To decrease country’s reliance on energy imports

To decrease consumption of the fossil fuels

To increase energy security of Lithuania

To promote and support research and application of innovative energy technologies

The Law sets following mandatory energy targets to be achieved by 2020:

20% of gross annual energy consumption must come from renewable sources

Transport : at least 20% of energy consumption in transport sector must be sources from renewables

Heat : 60% of district heating energy must be derived from renewable sources

Renewable energy capacity targets to be reached by 2020:

capacity of wind plants connected to the grid must be incresed at least up to 500 MW ;

capacity of solar electiricy plants, exceeding 30kW, must be increased at least up to 10 MW ;

capacity of hydro power plants must be increased at least up to 14 MW;

capacity of the power plants running on biofuels must be increased at least up to 355 MW

After these capacities will be reached, feed-in tariffs will not be available anymore.

Guarantees of origin will be issued to the producers of electricity or heat from renewable energy sources.

The Law introduces renewable heat obligations for all new buildings and existing buildings undergoing major renovations. Obligations will enter into force on 31st December 2014.

Under the Law installations generating energy from renewable energy sources are granted priority in terms of connecting to the national grid .

Oil Industry Braces for Years-Long Iran War

Oil producers, traders, and refiners are bracing for a prolonged war between the United States and Iran in the Persian Gulf with little to no hope of a quick resolution. By extension, they are also preparing for higher prices for longer, a theme present at this year’s edition of the Asia Pacific Petroleum Conference. Reuters’ Clyde Russell reported this week that the mood at APPEC was not particularly cheerful as hostilities in the Middle East escalate once again, suggesting achieving peace would be quite a challenge. The Reuters columnist…

Stolen Electricity is Powering Illegal Crypto Farms Across the Globe

Electricity theft is a global problem, and it’s getting more dire all the time. While the problem is most common in developing countries, where grid infrastructure is limited and utilities and state authorities have lower oversight capacities, developed countries are not immune either. This theft can occur in many forms and at many scales, from individuals tapping into power lines to power their individual residences to large-scale and sophisticated theft schemes to power entire cryptocurrency mining farms. Just this week, Mexican authorities…

The Race to Solve Nuclear Energy’s Biggest Problem

Nuclear power is growing in popularity once again as governments worldwide look to diversify their energy mix and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Several countries are now looking to develop or expand their nuclear energy capacity over the coming decades. However, one challenge remains – nuclear waste. Disposing of waste materials from nuclear energy operations remains a complex task with no perfect solution. As countries worldwide have grown their nuclear power capacity, many governments are still struggling to decide on the best solution…

Iran’s Security Crackdown Runs Into Resistance From Within

Iran's parliament is trying to turn fears of foreign infiltration into law. But as lawmakers work through the legislation, the debate is exposing an increasingly awkward question for the Islamic Republic: How far should the state go in policing Iranians' contact with the outside world? At the center of that debate is Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, who, at least publicly, is doing a balancing act. He has defended the need for tougher measures against foreign infiltration while warning that the current draft of the legislation goes too…

Why More Homes Are Switching From Gas to Heat Pumps

Heat pumps are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to gas-powered central heating systems and are increasingly being used in new construction, often driven by government incentives. A heat pump uses technology similar to that found in a refrigerator or an air conditioner, extracting heat from a source, such as the surrounding air, and amplifying and transferring the heat to where it is needed. As most of the heat is transferred rather than generated, heat pumps are far more efficient than conventional heating technologies such as boilers…
