Protection of the environment

We have strong belief that harmony with the environment in which we live and work forms the basis for successful activities and development of the company.
Principles of Litgrid environmental protection policy:
  • Planning of routes of new power transmission lines in such a way that the impact on people’s economic activities and nature is as low as possible.
  • Designs of construction/reconstruction of energy facilities involve the provision for preventive measures to protect the environment, environmentally-friendly technologies, and facilities ensuring energy efficiency.
  • Contributing to the 20/20/20 plan on promotion of alternative energy sources by the year 2020, which provides for a 20% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (compared with 1990), a 20% increase in the generation of energy from renewable energy sources, and a 20% increase in energy efficiency of the generation from conventional sources.
