Estonia: Production and Consumption of Renewable Energy

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

In 2014 Estonia’s primary energy production exceeded 244 thousand TJ with over 77 percent produced from shale oil and 18 percent from wood. Estonia energy demand is satisfied through domestic production (70 percent) and imported supplies, mainly natural gas and both gasoline and diesel oil (30 percent). Estonia already fulfilled the target of 25 percent of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in gross final energy consumption set by the National Renewable Energy Action Plan. However, actual share of bio-fuels in transport sector in 2015 is estimated at only 0.26 percent, very far from the EU target requiring 10 percent of RES in transport by 2020. Please Note: This report is to be read in conjunction with the Annual 2016 EU28 Consolidated Report on Biofuels (Biofuels Annual_The Hague_EU-28_6-29-2016) and provides further information on Estonian market of biofuels.
