Belgium – climate action progress in figures

Check Belgium’s implementation of its National Energy and Climate Plan

Belgium has not submitted its draft National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) update due to the lack of an agreement between its governments, as of 30 September 2023. Belgium overall does not strive towards a 1.5°C trajectory. With the current regional plans, Belgium would not fulfil the EU requirements for climate effort sharing. There is not enough information available with regards to energy efficiency and renewables.

Planned policies and measures (PAMs) are likely not enough to achieve the non-Emission Trading System (non-ETS) target. The tracker shows only the historical data in the case of Belgium. An update of the tool is foreseen in the near future.
