The share of renewable energy sources (RES) in the use of fuels in industry amounted to 11% in 2021, which was 0.7 percentage point behind the annual indicative target value. The 2021 indicative target was thus not achieved. In order to achieve the target of 30% of RES in the use of fuels in industry in 2030, the share of RES will have to increase by 19 percentage points or by about approximately 2 percentage points per year.

In companies included in the EU GHG emissions trading scheme (EU-ETS), the share of RES in the use of fuels has been steadily decreasing after 2017. In 2021, compared to the previous year, it decreased by 0.9 percentage points to 2%, which is the lowest value in the observed period. In the non-ETS industry, the share of RES fluctuates considerably. In the period 2010–2021, the largest share, 21.3%, was achieved in 2014, and the smallest, 13.8%, in 2012. In 2021, the share of RES in the non-ETS industry was 19.7%. Compared to the previous year, it increased by 2.2 percentage points, mainly due to a 17% increase in the use of RES.
