Malta National Inventory Report (NIR). 2026 - MALTA’S NATIONAL INVENTORY DOCUMENT OF GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS REMOVALS, April 2026

Malta 7th National Report. NR7 (2026)

Malta National Inventory Report (NIR). 2025

The National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) is a ten-year integrated document <a href="https://ec.europa.eu/energy/topics/energy-strategy/national-energy-climate-plans_en" target="_self">mandated by the European Union</a> to each of its member states in order for the EU to meet its overall greenhouse gases emissions targets. Following feedback from an EU-wide assessment of draft NECP submissions, EU members are required to submit updated final NECPs for the period 2021-2030. The Energy and Climate Plan addresses all five dimensions of the EU Energy Union: decarbonisation, energy efficiency, energy security, internal energy markets and research, innovation and competitiveness.
Malta’s strategy under the Decarbonisation dimension is to ensure a transition to a low-carbon economy by a reduction of GHG emissions and an increase in renewable energy sources. In terms of Energy Security, Malta will follow its commitment to achieve a greater security of supply through the diversification of energy sources and suppliers. To ensure Malta's energy integration, the plan establishes policies and measures to increase the flexibility of the energy system. Malta will boost research, innovation and competitiveness, exploring enhanced biofuel usage and deploying an offshore renewable energy farms. The plan aims for a 25% renewable energy share by 2030.
