The share of renewable sources in total energy consumption was 18.4% in 2024. It remained unchanged compared to the previous year. The growth of RES is very slow and insufficient to achieve the targets in this area.

In 2024, the amount of incentives for the implementation of measures related to energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energy sources (RES) in non-ETS industry amounted to EUR 1.1 million, i.e. 18 % less than the previous year. Only Eco Fund incentives are considered in this amount, as the projects co-financed under the Operational Programme for the Implementation of the European Cohesion Policy in the 2014–2020 Period (OP ECP) were not prepared in such a way that the monitoring of effects related to climate targets would be possible.

F-gas emissions from leaks from stationary installations increased again in 2024 due to a significantly higher use of refilled refrigerants. This represented a significant deviation from the indicative target for reducing emissions from the use of F-gases under the EU F-gases Regulation. Compared to 2015, F-gas emissions from leaks were 8% lower in 2024, while, according to the F-gases Regulation, they should have been lower by 69%.

The share of renewable energy sources (RES) in the use of fuels in industry amounted to 12,8% in 2023, which was 3.6 percentage points behind the annual indicative target value. The 2023 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 18 percentage points or by about approximately 3 percentage points per year.

The share of electricity from renewable energy sources in gross electricity consumption reached 50.7% in 2024, representing a noticeable increase compared to the previous year. This growth was driven by favourable hydrological conditions and continued expansion of solar power generation, while gross electricity consumption decreased by 3.6%. Hydropower remains the key source of renewable electricity, accounting for 78% of all renewable electricity produced in 2024.
