Renewable in % Electricity Production
The objective goal set in the Moldovan Energy Strategy 2030 to increase the share of renewables in the final energy consumption to 17% in 2020 was overreached (25% in 2020). In 2020, the share of renewables in transport was only 0.2% compared to the objective of 10%. Electricity from renewables (mostly from wind and biogas) is expected to reach 17% of the total electricity consumption in 2020 (6% in 2020).

CO2 Fuel Combustion/CO2 Emissions
In its NDC, Moldova plans to reduce its GHG emissions by 64-67% by 2030, compared to 1990 levels.
CO2 emissions from energy combustion have remained quite stable since 2000, after an 80% decrease between 1990 and 2000 (8.6 MtCO2 in 2020).
