We produce and distribute energy as efficiently as possible, and use renewable and local energy sources to the maximum possible extent. We are proud to have a positive carbon handprint.
Utilitas is the largest producer of renewable energy in Estonia. We provide environmentally friendly and reasonably priced energy around the clock to hundreds of thousands of people.
District heating is a modern, efficient, and environmentally friendly solution – the best way for supplying heat to densely populated areas.
District heating is the most efficient and environmentally friendly method of producing heat in densely populated areas.
District cooling is the most environmentally friendly and convenient way to cool the rooms of urban buildings while ensuring a healthy indoor climate.
Utilitas works to secure that everyone can enjoy a convenient temperature and an uninterrupted electricity supply, while at the same time preserving nature.
Utilitas has reduced the use of fossil fuels in its district heating systems from 100 percent to a third. With the carbon neutrality strategy of "From Low to Zero" developed in 2021, we set ourselves the goal to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from our activities to zero by 2030 at the latest, and to adapt to the effects of climate change.
Following the unprecedented crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Estonia''s recovery and resilience plan has responded to the urgent need to foster a strong recovery, while making Estonia''s economy and society more resilient and future ready. In response to the energy market disruption caused by Russia''s invasion of Ukraine, the Commission launched the REPowerEU Plan. The Recovery and Resilience Facility is at the heart of its implementation and its funding. Under REPowerEU, EU countries are updating their recovery and resilience plans with new measures to save energy and diversify the EU''s energy supplies.
Focusing on green technologies and capacities - sustainable mobility, energy efficiency and renewables, climate change adaptation; circular economy; and biodiversity.

Promoting the roll-out of very high-capacity networks, the digitalisation of public services, government processes, and businesses, in particular SMEs; developing basic and advanced digital skills; supporting digital-related R&D and the deployment of advanced technologies.
Social and territorial cohesion
Improving social and territorial infrastructure and services, including social protection and welfare systems, the inclusion of disadvantaged groups; supporting employment and skills development; creating high-quality, stable jobs.
Health and economic, social and institutional resilience
Improving the resilience, accessibility and quality of health and long-term care, including measures to advance their digitalisation; increasing the effectiveness of public administration systems.
The map exclusively serves information purposes and is not an exhaustive database of projects supported by the Recovery and Resilience Facility. It does not reflect the distribution of the projects funded by the Recovery and Resilience Facility across the European Union, nor across different geographical areas or sectors within EU Member States. The RRF funding amounts shown for measures are based on the initial cost estimates included in the recovery and resilience plans.
Furthermore, the projects showcased are without prejudice to any future assessment by the Commission in the context of verifying the satisfactory fulfilment of milestones and targets under Regulation (EU) 2021/241 establishing the Recovery and Resilience Facility.
The country snapshot illustrates some of the most iconic and impactful projects included in the Estonian Recovery and Resilience Plan that will bring positive change for EU citizens, businesses and the EU at large.
The reforms and investments in Estonia''s plan are helping it become more sustainable, resilient andbetter prepared for the challenges and opportunities offered by the green and digital transitions. Following Council approval of Estonia''s plan on 29 October 2021, Estonia''s recovery and resilience plan was updated on 16 June 2023 also to introduce a reform and investments that address REPowerEU objectives.
*The plan is entirely financed by RRF grants.**This value includes the transfer from the Brexit adjustment reserve requested by Estonia and Estonia''s REPowerEU grant.
All measures have to be implementedwithin a tight time frame, as the Regulation establishing the Recovery and Resilience Facility requires all milestones and targets within the national plans to be completed by August 2026.
Estonia''s plan now includes one reform and two investments to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels, in line with one of the REPowerEU Plan''s objectives..
To finance this increased ambition, Estonia has asked for its share of the Brexit Adjustment Reserveto be transferred to the plan, amounting to €6.6 million. These funds would be added to Estonia''s REPowerEU grant of €83.3 million.
Key measures for REPowerEU
Estonia proposed the following three measures under its REPowerEU chapter:
Estonia has also addressed the challenges to diversify imports of fossil fuels and to ensure sufficient capacity of interconnections without resources from the RRP. It managed to stop buying Russian gas by cooperating with Finland to put in place a floating storage and regasification unit and it continues its efforts to synchronise its electricity network with the EU electricity network.
Estonia has significant unused renewable energy potential (mainly wind) but deployment of projects has been slow, including due to administrative barriers.
The purpose of this reform is to facilitate the deployment of renewable energy sources, notably wind energy. The reform includes:
In the area of climate and environmental policies, Estonia''s challenges include decarbonisation of its economy, in particular to reduce dependency on oil shale in electricity generation, energy efficiency of buildings and sustainability of transport. Green transition in the enterprises also needs to pick up to adhere to the principles of circular economy and implement new technologies to increase resource productivity.
Key measures for the green transition
The modified plan, including the REPowerEU chapter, has further strengthened the focus on the plan on the green transition, devoting 59% of the available funds to measures thatsupportclimate objectives (up from 41.5% in the original plan).
