Energieauer: key energy figures for Luxembourg

Discover the intuitive platform from Klima-Agence and the Ministry of the Economy to explore and understand the country’s energy trends.
It highlights key indicators linked to the objectives of Luxembourg’s integrated national energy and climate plan (PNEC), to encourage active participation in the energy transition.

Electricity

Net electricity consumption and imports (in the Creos TSO network)

Consumption figures are based on the Creos TSO network. These figures do not include self-consumption. The net import of electricity is the difference between the quantity of electricity imported and exported by a country or region over a given period. If a country imports more than it exports, it has a positive net import.

Data based on ENTSO-E Transparency Platform.

Solar energy expansion

The annual objective is based on the latest version of the PNEC. Installed capacity refers to the total annual output of photovoltaic installations in Luxembourg. This capacity represents the maximum electricity output that these installations can generate under optimal sunlight conditions, without taking into account any other factors that could affect daily production, such as the weather or the seasons. Installed capacity is updated monthly via the national register of electricity generation plants (RNCP).

Installed capacity

  • +98,70 MW
    since 2024
  • +77,00 MW
    in 2023

Total capacity

492,70 MW

PNEC target 2030

1236 MW

Wind power expansion

The annual objective is based on the latest version of the PNEC. Installed capacity refers to the total annual output of wind farms installed in Luxembourg. This capacity represents the maximum output that all these wind turbines can generate under ideal wind conditions. Installed capacity is updated on a trimestrial basis via the national register of electricity generation plants (RNCP).

Installed capacity

  • +2,76 MW
    since 2024
  • +42,00 MW
    in 2023

Electromobility

The number of publicly accessible charging points and the total charging capacity installed in Luxembourg. The installed charging capacity corresponds to the combined power supply capacity of all the charging points for electric vehicles in Luxembourg. Data based on “Observatoire digital de la mobilité”.

Gas

Natural gas consumption and imports

Monthly natural gas consumption and imports. Since there is no gas production in Luxembourg and biogas production is very low, natural gas consumption is essentially equivalent to national gas imports. The data comes from the transmission system operator (Creos).
