In 2024, Belarus replaced about three billion cubic meters of imported natural gas with local fuels, mainly wood waste. For a country where over 40% of the territory is forested, this marks a logical step toward energy diversification. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), which regards. . Most energy in Belarus is cheap fossil gas from Russia, [1] and Belarus is a net energy importer. According to IEA, the energy import vastly exceeded the energy production in 2015, describing Belarus as one of the world's least energy sufficient countries in the world. The corresponding resolution was signed by Belarusian Prime Minister Aleksandr Turchin. The state program aims to enhance the national economy's energy efficiency and boost the country's energy. . Belarus has set a target to increase its renewable energy share to 10% by 2030, a goal announced by Energy Minister Viktor Karankevich at the 14th International Energy Forum on October 15th. With the help of the International Energy Agency and the Energy Charter, signi-ficant progress has been made made towards strong poli-cymaking, legislation and statistics that will lay the founda-tions for Belarus' energy security, sustainable energy an. .

It has two refineries and oil pipelines built during the Soviet era including the Mozyr Oil Refinery. Oil consumed in 2021 amounted to 49.13m barrels with 12.52 m barrels produced, the rest imported. Renewable energy generation accounted for 6% of Belarus's energy in 2018, rising to 8% in 2020, mostly from biofuels and waste.
Renewable energy generation accounted for 6% of Belarus's energy in 2018, rising to 8% in 2020, mostly from biofuels and waste. Renewables share in electricity generation was 2% in 2018 (0.8 TWh). Renewable energy includes wind, solar, biomass and geothermal energy sources.
Primary energy use in Belarus was 327 TWh or 34 TWh per million persons in 2008. Primary energy use per capita in Belarus in 2009 (34 MWh) was slightly more than in Portugal (26 MWh) and about half of the use in Belgium (64 MWh) or Sweden (62 MWh). Electricity consumed in 2021 was 32.67 billion kWh, 3,547 kWh per capita.
The plan aims to stimulate economic growth and create millions of jobs in the renewable energy sector by transitioning to a sustainable energy system. Increasing the share of renewable energy in the national energy mix, reducing dependency on fossil fuels, and. .
