Amber Grid, the gas transmission system operator in Lithuania, has received approval from the National Energy Regulatory Council for its gas transmission network development plan spanning up to 2033. The plan, which requires investments of approximately 201 million euros over the next decade, is geared towards fulfilling the strategic goals of the EU and Lithuania in the gas sector. These objectives include ensuring gas supply security, enhancing competitiveness, and fostering the development of a unified Baltic regional gas market. The CEO of Amber Grid, Nemunas Biknius, stressed the enduring importance of gas as a significant industrial resource and for energy system stability for several decades to come. With the gas transmission network operating for almost fifty years, the company views infrastructure modernisation as vital to maintaining a safe and dependable transmission network. Additionally, there is a strong emphasis on integrating renewable energy sources such as biomethane and green hydrogen. During the consultation phase of the 10-year network development plan, stakeholders expressed particular interest in the hydrogen network plan, showcasing a growing focus on green hydrogen projects. The plan aligns with the Nordic-Baltic Hydrogen Corridor project and involves collaboration with Litgrid to ensure coherence with electricity transmission network development plans. The comprehensive approach of the Amber Grid's network development plan underscores its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and energy security in Lithuania and the wider Baltic region.
