Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
STATEMENT OF THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD
Dear all,
I am pleased to present to you Litgrid’s 2025 Integrated Annual Report.
In 2025, the Litgrid team achieved a historic milestone: on February 9, at 2:05 p.m., the Baltic countries’ power systems were successfully synchronized with the power grids of Continental Europe. This achievement would not have been possible without more than 40 successfully implemented power transmission network projects in Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, and Estonia. Lithuania became the standard-bearer of synchronization—in terms of both projects and tests and studies conducted, as well as the dissemination of knowledge to the public and interested parties. Engineers and energy specialists prefer numbers over words, so here they are: 420 km of new power transmission lines, 230 km of reconstructed lines, 1,092 pylons, 13 new, expanded, or reconstructed substations and transformer stations, and 3 new autotransformers at the LitPol Link interconnection. All of this is just in Lithuania, and then there are 3 synchronous condencers in each of the Baltic countries.
In addition to synchronization, the development of renewable energy sources, ensuring reliable electricity transmission, and the continuation of grid modernization projects. In response to the geopolitical context, we have initiated programs to enhance the resilience of critical infrastructure, and to increase the integration of electricity markets and ensure further market development and competitiveness, we are implementing programs to strengthen interconnections.
One of our main operational goals is to be reliable partners in integrating large-scale solar, wind, and energy storage parks into the Lithuanian electricity transmission grid. Therefore, it is equally important that we connected a record amount—1.7 GW—of renewable energy power plants. By the end of the year, we also integrated the first two commercial energy storage facilities into the transmission grid.
By the end of 2025, the total permitted generation capacity of solar and wind power plants already operating in Lithuania, including both transmission and distribution networks, reached 5.6 GW and accounted for about three-quarters of the country’s total electricity generation capacity, excluding storage facilities.
'Please unpack the Result.zip and reopen this file.'
2025 was a historic year for local electricity generation in the country. Local power plants generated 73% of Lithuania’s total annual electricity demand, the highest share since 2009, when the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant was shut down. By comparison, in 2024, local power plants in Lithuania met 59% of the country’s electricity demand.
Last year, electricity generation in Lithuania increased by 25%, and nearly three-quarters of the country’s electricity demand was met by local power plants. For the first time in the country’s history, power plants relying solely on wind, solar, and other renewable resources generated approximately 50% of the electricity consumed in Lithuania over the course of a year.
Looking to the future, we see Lithuania as the region’s energy hub. By working with partners in Poland, Latvia, and other European countries, we are laying the groundwork for further integration of electricity markets and opportunities for new interconnections. This is the path to lower prices, greater competitiveness among producers, and more sustainable development across the entire region.
Tomas Varneckas,
Litgrid Chairman of the Board
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
STATEMENT OF THE CEO
Dear all,
2025 was a year in which we entered a completely new stage of Lithuania’s energy development.
By synchronizing our electricity system with the Continental European network, we opened the country’s path toward greater energy independence, innovation, and a leadership role in the region. This is not just a technical achievement – it is a key pillar of a long-term vision: a reliable, resilient, and green energy system that forms an integral part of Europe’s infrastructure.
The year 2026 will focus on further strengthening system resilience, expanding interconnections, improving balancing markets, and integrating innovative technologies into the transmission network.
Last year, Litgrid completed all strategic synchronization projects: new transmission lines in western Lithuania and the Vilnius region, all three synchronous condencers, and the transmission network management systems. The scale and quality of this project did not go unnoticed: the Baltic synchronization was recognized as Project of the Year at the global PMI awards, acknowledging its successful and faster-than-planned implementation.
It was also a record year for renewable energy development. We connected 600 MW of wind and 200 MW of solar power plants to the transmission network, and total installed capacity of these sources in Lithuania increased to 5.6 GW. We also connected the first two electricity storage parks with a combined capacity of 119 MW. This is a major step toward the national goal of ensuring that all electricity consumed in Lithuania is produced domestically. Storage development will reduce price volatility and increase balancing market efficiency.
In 2025, we further strengthened the resilience of Lithuania’s electricity system. The Critical Infrastructure Resilience Program expanded to 14 projects and more than 150 measures across various network nodes. Early this year, together with Baltic partners, we received EUR 113 million in EU funding to implement these solutions.
'Please unpack the Result.zip and reopen this file.'
We are increasing interconnection capacity and advancing market integration: we plan to expand electricity exchanges with Poland and Latvia, and together with partners in Latvia and Germany, we are assessing the need and feasibility of a new interconnection. Significant attention was dedicated to the reliability of the transmission grid.
In 2025, electricity supply indicators improved significantly – average outage duration decreased to 0.41 minutes, and NOT transmitted energy volumes were more than twice as low as in previous years. Interconnection reliability also remained high – NordBalt availability exceeded 97%, and capacities between the Baltic States and Poland were ensured continuously.
Financially, 2025 was stable, although results were partly affected by temporary market and regulatory changes. Total revenues increased by 14%, transmission and ancillary service revenues grew, and adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net profit – key indicators of operational efficiency – grew at a double-digit rate. Annual investments amounted to EUR 166.3 million: more than one-third went to strategically important state projects, and the remainder to grid expansion, reconstruction, and operational support.
Litgrid also continued its commitments in the region. We further supported Ukraine’s war-damaged energy sector – delivering the fourth high-voltage autotransformer and additional transmission equipment to help rebuild the grid. Solidarity with Ukraine remains an integral part of our mission.
The coming year will focus on further strengthening system resilience, expanding interconnections, improving balancing markets, integrating modern technologies into the transmission grid, and deploying smart solutions. We have a solid foundation – both from the results of completed projects and the professionalism and dedication of the entire Litgrid team. I am confident that we will continue building a reliable, modern, and competitive future for Lithuania’s energy sector.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT
2.1.
Main services
We maintain highvoltage electricity transmission networks and ensure the stable operation of the national electricity system, manage electricity flows, enable competition in the open electricity market, and are responsible for the functioning of Lithuania’s electricity system within the European electricity infrastructure and common electricity market.
Electricity transmission is an intermediate link between electricity generation and distribution to consumers. Transmission networks are highvoltage networks (110–400 kV). The electricity transmission network consists of transmission lines and substations. Electricity lines are connected at substations, which contain high and mediumvoltage switchgear as well as transformers or autotransformers connecting them. In substation transformers, voltage is stepped down to the level of distribution networks or generators.
Electricity transmission activity is subject to licensing. Transmission service prices are regulated by the National Energy Regulatory Council (hereinafter – VERT), which sets the upper limits of these service prices.
2.2.
Additional services
To maintain reliable system operation, we purchase frequency restoration reserve, steadystate voltage regulation, system blackstart, generator availability, and isolatedoperation reserve services from electricity market participants and provide additional services to consumers. The frequency restoration reserve is required when electricity generation suddenly decreases unexpectedly or electricity consumption increases.
Trading of balance and imbalance
Litgrid ensures the balance between national electricity generation and consumption. Imbalance electricity is the electricity that is consumed or generated in deviation from agreed consumption or generation schedules. We organise imbalance electricity trading, purchase and sell imbalance electricity needed to maintain the balance of the national electricity system.
Balancing electricity is electricity purchased and/or sold on the instruction of the transmission system operator to perform the function of balancing national electricity consumption and production. We organise balancing electricity trading through auctions in which balancing electricity providers and foreign transmission system operators participate, provided they have the technical capability to rapidly change electricity generation and consumption modes and have signed a relevant contract with Litgrid.
Issuance and Administration of Guarantees of Origin
By order of the Minister of Energy of the Republic of Lithuania, Litgrid has been designated as the entity authorised to issue, transfer, cancel, supervise, and control guarantees of origin for electricity produced from renewable energy sources, as well as to recognise guarantees of origin issued by other EU Member States and third countries in Lithuania.
A guarantee of origin is an electronic document, the sole purpose of which is to prove to the final consumer that all or part of the consumed energy was generated from renewable energy sources.
2.3.
TSO clients
Our direct customers are transmission network users and suppliers of imbalance and balancing electricity: Transmission network users:
distribution network operators ESO, UAB Dainavos elektra, AB Achema and AB Akmenės cementas;
electricity consumers whose electrical equipment is connected to the electricity transmission network and who purchase electricity for consumption;
electricity producers and energy storage facility developers connected to the transmission network;
suppliers of imbalance and balancing electricity – electricity producers, storage facilities and electricity suppliers.

Inter-System Electricity Interconnections
Reliably operating inter-system connections are a crucial part of the system, enabling joint operation with the energy systems of Continental and Northern European countries and supporting the development of the common European market.
LitPol Link – a doublecircuit interconnection from Alytus (Lithuania) to Elk (Poland) and the Alytus directcurrent converter.
From 1 January 2025 to 9 February 2025, the availability of the LitPol Link interconnection was 99.08%.
From 9 February 2025, LitPol Link is a doublecircuit interconnection from Alytus to Elk, including three 400/330/10 kV autotransformers in Alytus. The link operates in alternatingcurrent mode, and market capacity is assessed based on frequency stability to ensure the reliable operation of the Baltic electricity systems. From 9 February to 31 December, the Poland–Lithuania marketallocated capacity (no less than 70% of capacity) was ensured 99.3% of the time; Lithuania–Poland capacity was ensured 100% of the time. In 2025, the main factors affecting LitPol Link unavailability were scheduled maintenance and balancing reserve volumes.
NordBalt – one of the longest submarine cables in the world, significantly increasing electricity supply security for Lithuania and the Baltic States. In 2025, the availability of the NordBalt interconnection was 97.38%. The main factor affecting NordBalt unavailability was emergency outages on the Swedish side. The Lithuania–Latvia inter-system market capacity in 2025 was ensured 100% of the time.
2.6.
Electricity Grid Maintenance
In Lithuania, Litgrid employees maintain approximately 7,193.56 km of overhead high voltage lines and 354.48 km of underground high voltage cable lines, as well as 251 transformer substations and switchyards, and 1 high voltage direct current converter.
Continuous repair and maintenance work of transmission network assets directly influences the operation of the electricity system and the reliability of electricity transmission. Scheduled transmission network work is carried out at intervals defined by the legislation of the Republic of Lithuania, based on the actual condition of assets and the need to ensure reliable network operation and efficient use of financial resources.
While carrying out reconstruction of transmission networks in cities and city surroundings, overhead lines are replaced with cable lines. In 2025, the cabling of the Šiauliai–Zuokniai overhead line was completed – a total of 5.725 km.
Such solutions reduce visual pollution, narrow the protection zone of transmission lines, and increase land availability for economic and commercial development.
We are consistently restoring emergency reserve capacity. To increase operational resilience, we purchase equipment and materials for emergency reserves and conduct network restoration exercises and training.

BUSINESS AND REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT
3.1.
Energy Sector Environment
On 9 February 2025, the Baltic States completed the synchronization of their electricity grids. This important milestone did not have a direct impact on the dayahead electricity market price, as commercial electricity trade with Russia and Belarus has not
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
been taking place since 2022 and 2020 respectively. From the moment of synchronization, the transmission system operators of the Baltic States assumed responsibility for secure system operation, supported by the newly established Baltic balancing capacity markets. In December 2024, we joined the European balancing energy platforms MARI, and in March this year – PICASSO. All these changes ensure deeper integration into the common European market, increase competition, and emphasize balancing – a function whose importance has grown rapidly in recent years due to the expansion of renewable energy sources.
Last year, electricity generation in Lithuania increased by 25%, and almost threequarters of the country’s electricity demand was met by domestic power plants. For the first time in the country’s history, wind, solar, and other renewable energy sources alone generated 50% of all electricity consumed in Lithuania during the year.
The year 2025 was another historic year for domestic electricity production. Almost 10 terawatthours (9.718 TWh) of electricity were produced in Lithuania – 25% more than in 2024, when 7.748 TWh were generated. Renewable energy power plants contributed most to this growth – they accounted for more than twothirds (68%) of all electricity produced in the country. Domestic power plants generated 73% of Lithuania’s total annual electricity demand – the largest share since 2009, when the Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant was closed. For comparison, in 2024 domestic power plants covered 59% of national electricity consumption.
Electricity production continues to grow as the number of renewable energy power plants connected to transmission and distribution networks increases. Both wind and solar power plants generated significantly more environmentally friendly electricity: solar production grew by 41%, and wind production increased by 23% over the year. For the first time, renewable power plants alone generated half of Lithuania’s annual electricity demand – 50%. By comparison, in 2024 renewable energy sources supplied 41% of the country’s electricity needs.
Wind power generation increased from 3.491 TWh to 4.293 TWh, and solar generation grew from 1.273 TWh to 1.79 TWh. Hydropower generation decreased by 24%, from 0.431 TWh to 0.328 TWh. In total, renewable energy generation amounted to 6.619 TWh, 23% more than in 2024 (5.403 TWh). Electricity generated by thermal power plants increased by 46% compared to 2024 (from 1.797 TWh to 2.617 TWh).
In 2025, the final electricity consumption in Lithuania was 12.64 TWh. This is 3 percent more than in 2024, when the final consumption reached 12.31 TWh. As the number of consumers producing solar power plants in the electricity distribution network increases, the amount of electricity produced and consumed on site, but not transmitted to the electricity grid, also increases. Based on the preliminary assessment of AB ESO and the data provided, the amount of such internal consumption in 2025 was about 0.63 TWh and increased by 0.1 TWh (20 percent) compared to 2024. After assessing these additional consumption amounts, a total of 13.3 TWh of electricity was consumed in Lithuania in 2025, which is 0.5 TWh (4 percent) more than in 2024. consumption when 12.8 TWh of electricity was consumed (including internal consumption of producing consumers).
Compared to 2024 electricity consumption in the industrial sector increased by 1.7% to 4.345 TWh, in the services sector, consumption grew by 2.4% to 3.7 TWh, households consumed 2.2% more, reaching 3.328 TWh.
Total electricity demand, which includes technical network losses and the charging of energy storage facilities, remained nearly unchanged – it increased by 0.4% to 13.261 TWh. Lower technical losses and reduced pumping at hydroaccumulation plants had a negative effect on overall demand growth.
In 2025, Lithuania imported 6.071 TWh of electricity – 33% less than in 2024 – and exported 2.468 TWh, or 21% less than in 2024. Imports from Sweden decreased by 24% to 4.003 TWh, while imports from Latvia increased by 58% to 1.618 TWh.
The largest share of electricity exports went to Latvia; however, this decreased by 1.3% to 1.376 TWh.
3.2.
Regulatory environment in Lithuania
Electricity transmission activities carried out by Litgrid are licensed activities. The licence grants exclusive rights to provide transmission services in Lithuania, thus the prices of services are regulated by the state. The regulatory function and supervision of the licensed activities in Lithuania are performed by the National Energy Regulatory Council.
The decisions taken by the regulator directly affect Litgrid's financial performance, the funds available for necessary operating costs, investments to ensure the reliability of the electricity transmission system, as well as the ability to finance strategic and other development projects with own or borrowed funds. The price of the electricity transmission service shall be regulated by setting a price cap for the five-year regulatory period and a component for the acquisition of ancillary services on top of the price of the transmission service. The price cap shall be adjusted each year in response to changes in the volume of services, inflation and other objective factors beyond the control of the operator and may be adjusted no more than twice a year.
The price cap shall consider the reasonable indispensable costs of the regulated activity and a reasonable return on investment, calculated as the product of the rate of return on investment (WACC) and the value of the regulated assets (RAB).

Reseach and studies
Study on strengthening interconnections
In the first half of 2025, an additional analysis of the Lithuania–Latvia interconnection boundary was carried out for the 2050 horizon.
Based on the calculations performed and the assessment of power flows across the Lithuania–Latvia boundary, it was determined that the most heavily loaded asset is the existing 330 kV Darbėnai–Klaipėda transmission line. This situation arises from the fact that highcapacity sources are planned at both ends of the line – offshore wind generation in Darbėnai and the NordBalt interconnection in Klaipėda. Meanwhile, the 330 kV Darbėnai–Bitėnai line is three times longer than the Darbėnai–Klaipėda line, resulting in significantly higher impedance and, consequently, lower power flow on that route.
To manage this situation, a dedicated device must be installed on the Klaipėda–Darbėnai line to increase its impedance and reduce the power flow. Toensure the ability to transmit higher planned power flows across the Lithuania–Latvia boundary, it is necessary to plan new 330 kV transmission lines and reinforce the capacity of existing ones in Western Lithuania and Latvia.
Among the alternatives evaluated in the study, the most beneficial and technically suitable solution proposed was:
reconductoring and upgrading the existing 330 kV Darbėnai–Grobiņa overhead line to a doublecircuit configuration;
constructing a new 330 kV Varduva–Broceni transmission line;
and implementing several internal reinforcement projects within both the Lithuanian and Latvian transmission systems.
Assessment of the adequacy of the Lithuanian electricity system and system flexibility needs for the period 2028–2035 
In 2025, we launched an international procurement procedure for a study on the adequacy of the Lithuanian electricity system, and the system flexibility needs for the period 2028–2035. 
The objective of the study is to assess the adequacy of the Lithuanian electricity system under relevant sensitivity scenarios, and based on the results, to carry out a national evaluation of system flexibility needs. The study will also provide recommendations on the required volume and development model for flexible generation capacities. 
Preliminary study results are expected in the first quarter of 2026, with the final results anticipated in the second quarter of 2026.

STRATEGIC PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
One of the fundamental directions of the implementation of the National Energy Independence Strategy of the Republic of Lithuania adopted by the decision of the Parliament on 21 June 2018 establishes the connection of the electricity system of the Republic of Lithuania to the continental European networks for operation in a synchronised mode (the Synchronisation).
On February 9, 2025, the Synchronization Program implemented by Litgrid since 2019 reached its most important milestone: after conducting an isolated operation test of the Baltic States together with the regional transmission system operators, it was successfully connected to the continental European networks. This step had a dramatic significance not only for the development of the electricity system of Lithuania or the Baltic States, but also for the entire European electricity system, strengthened the energy independence of the Baltic States and accelerated the integration of the electricity systems of these countries into the European electricity market.
It is expected that by the end of 2025, the Continental Europe Regional Group (CE) of the ENTSO-E System Operations Committee will approve the permanent status of the synchronous connection of the Baltic States to the continental European networks.
Even after the Lithuanian power system is connected to the continental European grid, the activities of the Synchronization Program continue to be implemented in accordance with the guidelines of the updated Action and Measures Plan for the Implementation of the Electricity System Synchronization Project and the Strengthening of the Security and Reliability of the Electricity System (hereinafter referred to as the AMP), approved by the Government of Lithuania in March 2024. By January 31, 2025, Litgrid had
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
already implemented 17 out of 22 Synchronization Program projects, two of which involved the dismantling of interconnection lines with the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus.
According to the requirements of the Republic of Lithuania Law on the Protection of Objects of Importance to Ensuring National Security, before the conclusion of transactions that comply with the requirements of this law, in all cases Litgrid informs the Commission for Coordination of Protection of Objects of Importance to Ensuring National Security about such transactions. Such transactions are concluded only upon the receipt of the commission’s conclusions.

ACTIVITIES OF THE RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES CENTRE (RESC)
The year 2025 was marked by exceptional momentum in the activities of the Renewable Energy Sources Centre (RESC), with a strong strategic focus on the longterm sustainability of the electricity system. It was a year when the development of renewable energy sources (RES) reached record levels, and energy storage technologies became a critical element of system flexibility.
In 2025, RES development reached unprecedented heights – approximately 1.7 GW of RES installations were connected to the transmission grid and began operation. At the same time, projects related to electricity storage systems continued to advance successfully: storage capacity reservations reached around 4.2 GW, and by the end of the year, 118 MW of commercial storage capacity had entered operation. The key priority for 2026 is the significant expansion of electricity storage, with the aim of reaching up to 1 GW of system flexibility.
In 2025, we connected approximately 1.7 GW of renewable energy facilities to the transmission grid, marking the highest annual installed capacity to date. This result reflects not only the growing activity of developers but also the AEIC team’s ability to ensure effective project evaluation, coordination of connection processes, and systematic readiness to accept new generation sources.
At the same time, there was active development of energy storage facilities—reservations for storage reached approximately 4.2 GW, and by the end of the year, commercial storage facilities with an installed capacity of 118 MW began operations. This is a significant step in the transition from purely generation expansion to a balanced energy system that ensures flexibility.

Main emphases:
increased attention to initiated significant, value-creating innovation projects and the search for synergy;
the aim of becoming more involved in international projects and financing of such projects by the European Union and/or other innovation funds;
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
the contribution of innovations to the development of new services and (or) products.
The R&D Activity Guidelines establish the concepts of scientific research and experimental development, innovation and innovative activities common to the entire Group, common R&D activity directions and priorities, classification principles and recommendations to transmission system operators regarding the allocation of funds for R&D activities. By the end of 2024, it is planned to review the provisions of the R&D Activity Guidelines in accordance with the updated decisions of the Group Management Committee.
In the first half of 2025, 35 innovation projects were initiated. and two new measures were initiated. Currently, the Innovation Portfolio consists of 11 ongoing projects. The most important results of RDI activities in the first half of 2025:
Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) system of the Nordbalt connection
Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) technology allows real-time monitoring and continuous recording of the loads acting on the cable. The installed DAS system in the Nordbalt connection reduces the time for searching for a cable fault by up to 70 percent, which can usually last from several days to several months.
It is estimated that during one fault, using the DAS system, an average of about EUR 71 thousand can be saved in cable fault search costs. Having assessed the losses incurred by Litgrid during a single Nordbalt cable fault, which arise from uncollected overload revenues, a more efficient and accurate determination of the cable fault location can help prevent damage amounting to over EUR 1 million.
Renewable Energy Resources (RES) Management System
As the amount of RES in the Lithuanian electricity system increases and the calculation methodology for their connection changes, there is a threat that the elements of the electricity transmission network may overload and excess generation may lead to system imbalance. To properly manage resources, tools and processes have been created for the coordination and management of RES work in two stages:
Planning stage - an assessment of the operating mode of the electricity transmission network is performed and safe RES work limits are set, which determine not only a reliable operating mode of the electricity transmission network, but also the sharing of costs related to the limitation of RES production between transmission system operators and network users. The entire process is automated, minimizing the need for human involvement.
Real-time stage - actual RES management by assessing the actual situation in the electricity transmission network. Solving local (overload) and systemic (excess electricity) problems by promptly and effectively reducing RES generation. A dynamic algorithm has been developed that takes into account changes in the transmission network scheme, the loading of electrical equipment and the system balance. The algorithm automatically calculates the possible safe operating point of RES and human intervention is requiredonly for settings.

Revenue from ancillary services increased by 29% to EUR 180.2 million, driven by 28% increase in the component for the acquisition of ancillary services on top of the price of the transmission service and exceeding of declared power, while the volume of services provided decreased by 2.8%. According to the regulated pricing of the ancillary services, revenue must compensate expenses, including the Company’s internal expenses, attributable to this activity according to the rules of the regulation accounting.
Sales volumes of imbalance and balancing (hereinafter the “balancing”) electricity increased by 40%, however revenue from balancing electricity decreased 6% to EUR 108.7 million due to a 25% lower average selling price. Until October 2024, the change in these revenues did not have an impact on the Company’s short-term profitability as, under regulated imbalance pricing, revenues were compensating costs, including the Company’s internal costs, attributable to these activities in accordance with the rules of regulation accounting. Imbalance pricing has changed since October 2024, when the Company connected to a single European platform for the exchange of balancing energy from frequency restoration reserves with manual activation (MARI). The neutrality component, which is added to (deducted from) the balancing energy reference price, before the connection to MARI, was calculated based on the actual balancing trade data for the reporting month, to equalise the expenses which Litgrid incurred with the income. After the connection to MARI, the neutrality component is calculated in advance and adjusted for subsequent months using actual data from previous months, which may result in a significant difference between the balancing and imbalance income and expenses during the reporting period. In 2025, revenues were below costs by EUR 3.2 million, but this difference shall not affect long-term profitability as it will be considered in future corrections.
Other income related to the transmission activity include:
Income from Inter-Transmission System Operator Compensation (ITC) is income from the compensation paid by the ITC Fund for the costs of hosting European cross-border flows in the Company’s transmission networks and using infrastructure. ITC income was EUR 0.7 million. The revenue does not affect the long-term profitability as is assessed when determining the price of the transmission service and calculating the actual return on investments in the transmission service.
Revenue from congestion management services amounting to EUR 2.5 million. The revenue does not affect the Company’s profitability because revenue compensates expenses incurred in ensuring the use of allocated capacity of the interconnections.
Reactive energy revenue amounting to EUR 2.7 million. The revenue does not affect the long-term profitability as is assessed when determining the price of the transmission service and calculating the actual return on investments in the transmission service.
Revenue from administration of guarantees of electricity origin amounting to EUR 0.3 million.
Other income decreased by 26% to EUR 1.8 million, mostly due to lower penalties for contractors for late works.

Expenses of purchase of electricity and related services accounted for a major share of the Company’s operating expenses: EUR 329 million (81% of the Company’s total expenses), a 21% increase compared to 2024. Expenses for ancillary services increased by 44% to EUR 174.7 million, where the main factor was the increased costs of frequency restoration reserves. According to the pricing model for ancillary services, the result of ancillary services in the previous year is used to determine the component for acquiring ancillary services in subsequent years. Therefore, over a multi-year period, the result of this activity is of zero profitability.
Balancing electricity expenses increased by 4.1% due to a higher volume acquired though the purchase price was lower.
Expenses of electricity purchased for compensating technological losses in the transmission network increased by 0.4% to EUR 37.1 million due to a 13% higher average electricity purchase price while the quantity decreased by16%. ITC costs, i.e. payments to the ITC Fund to compensate for power losses and infrastructure usage of other countries when hosting cross-border power flows to import and export electricity to/from Lithuania, were EUR 2.8 million, the costs of ensuring the allocated capacity of interconnections – EUR 2.5 million.
Operating expenses increased by 15% to EUR 53.2 million compared to 2024. Increase in remuneration expenses by EUR 3.6 million was affected by a 9% increase in the average number of employees due to the intensive implementation of projects important to the State, the emergence of new functions, and the increase in average wages. Other expenses increased by EUR 3.3 million, with the highest increase recorded in repair and maintenance expenses of the electricity network due to the cyclical nature of the multi-year work plan and increases in market prices, as well as in other expenses, primarily driven by higher real estate tax costs.
The Company’s depreciation and amortisation expenses in 2025 increased by EUR 0.8 million due to a higher value of non-current assets.
6.3.
Return and other financial ratios
EBITDA = operating profit + depreciation and amortisation + (increase) decrease in assets (excl. inventories) impairment expenses + write-offs (excl. inventories).
Adjusted EBITDA is recalculated after assessing the temporary regulatory differences due to the decisions already adopted and forecast by the NERC and eliminating other non-typical profit or loss. The adjusted EBITDA is calculated:
by assessing a revenue adjustment for the prior periods, which has already been approved by NERC’s decision when establishing regulated prices for the reporting period;
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
by assessing deviation of an actual profitability from a reporting period profitability permitted (regulated) by NERC, which will be assessed when establishing regulated prices for the upcoming year by NERC;
by eliminating the result of balancing activities;
by eliminating other one-off adjustments.
Adjusted net profit = actual net profit + (adjusted EBITDA - EBITDA) x (1-income tax rate) +/- other one-off adjustments.

The Company‘s adjusted EBITDA was increased by
EUR 6.8 million higher compensable capital costs, mostly due to an increase in the value of regulated assets;
EUR 0.5 million higher additional tariff component for investment financing.
Adjusted EBITDA of the Company was reduced by:
EUR 0.8 million less income from unregulated activities (penalties for contractors)
EUR 0.1 million higher OPEX of unregulated activities;
EUR 0.9 million higher OPEX of regulated activities.
Adjusted EBITDA for 2025 was calculated by making following adjustments to EBITDA:
adding EUR 21.8 million, the difference between the actual and allowed return on investment of the transmission service, by which transmission services revenue in 2025 was reduced;
deducting EUR 13.4 million, the difference between the ancillary service costs and revenues from previous years, which was used to increase the ancillary service revenue for 2025;
adding EUR 6.5 million, which is the difference between the permitted and actual return on investments of transmission service for 2025 and not yet confirmed by the auditor and NERC;
adding EUR 7.9 million, which is the difference between the costs and revenue of ancillary services for 2025 and not yet confirmed by the auditor and NERC;
adding EUR 3.2 million, which is the difference between the costs and revenue of balancing service for 2025 and not yet confirmed by the auditor and NERC;
deducting EUR 21.9 million one-off transmission revenue for 2025, which is intended to compensate for the write-off costs of the LitPol Link converter.
'Please unpack the Result.zip and reopen this file.'
Net profit decreased by EUR 14.8 million, mainly due to a EUR 12 million weaker result from ancillary services.
The adjusted net profit for 2025 was calculated by making the
following adjustments:
Adding EUR 3.5 million, the difference between adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA after income tax.
The increase in adjusted net profit was mainly driven by EUR 5.5 million higher adjusted EBITDA.

The adjusted ROE increased from 13.8% to 14.3%, mainly due to increase in adjusted net profit.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025

Investments (excluding the assets received free of charge from third parties and capitalised wages and salaries) decreased mainly due to the completion of some strategic and state-important electricity investment projects in 2024. These investments accounted for 38% of total investments made in the first half of 2025. A significant portion of investments was made in the following projects:
a EUR 28.9 million in installation of new synchronous compensators;
a EUR 14.1 million in reconstruction of the 330 kV Kruonio HAE switchyard;
a EUR 12.8 million in construction of the 330 kV Vilnius – Neris ETL;
a EUR 10.8 million reconstruction of the 330 kV Jonavos switchyard;
a EUR 8.5 million reconstruction of the 330 kV Musa switchyard;
a EUR 6.8 million in connection of the 110-10 kV Kuprioniškės switchyard to the transmission network.

During the year the Company’s assets decreased by EUR 4 million (-0.5%) and amounted to EUR 816 million as at 31 December 2025. Non-current assets representing 68% of the Company’s total assets increased by EUR 86 million (+18%), the main reason – the capital investments were higher than depreciation costs even after the investments set off against subsidies.
Current assets decreased by EUR 90 million (-26%), mainly due to the EUR 110 million decrease in loans granted (temporarily unused accumulated congestion management revenue connected to the Group account and temporary borrowed to EPSO-G).
Shareholders’ equity increased by EUR 9 million (+3.6%) during the 2025, lower than the total revenue earned due to dividends paid to shareholders in 2025 and accounted for 33% of the total assets as at 31 December 2025.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Non-current liabilities decreased by EUR 4 million (-1.1%). Current liabilities decreased by EUR 9 million mainly due to the following: a reduction in investment-related payables (EUR -10.6 million) and electricity-related payables (EUR -24 million), an increase in the current-year portion of congestion management revenues (EUR +6 million), an increase in advance payments received (EUR +11.7 million), and an increase in VAT payable (EUR +6.7 million).

RISK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Risk management at Litgrid is understood as a structured approach to managing uncertainties in pursuit of the Company’s objectives.
Litgrid follows the Risk Management Policy and the Risk Management Methodology of the EPSOG Group. These documents establish a unified risk management system based on common principles and aligned with international best practice, following the COSO ERM (Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission – Enterprise Risk Management) framework. 
The Risk Management Policy sets out the core risk management principles and responsibilities that ensure a consistent, principlebased risk management process. The Policy is publicly available on the Litgrid website. 
When managing risks, it is essential for the Company to properly assess their significance. Significance is determined by multiplying the risk likelihood and impact. It is equally important to apply targeted risk mitigation measures aimed at eliminating the causes of risks (where possible) and/or reducing their impact. The Policy defines risk tolerance as the level of risk that does not exceed the Company’s highest acceptable risk threshold. This level (the product of likelihood and impact indicating the risk significance for the Company) is equal to or less than 15 points. Risks that exceed the defined tolerance threshold are subject to additional management measures.
Risk management process applied within the Group (stages)'Please unpack the Result.zip and reopen this file.'
1. Environment setting: based on the Company’s internal and external environment, planning documents, historical risk assessments, and monitoring results of implemented risk management measures, we identify factors that may affect the achievement of the Company’s objectives. By regularly assessing the environment, we aim to adapt to changes and prepare in advance for unforeseen threats.  
2.  Risk assessment: we regularly identify, analyse, and assess the Company’s risks, establish their key indicators, and compile the risk register. 
3. Risk treatment planning: for risks that exceed the Company’s risk tolerance threshold, we prepare a Risk Treatment Plan, selecting the most appropriate method of risk management: 
3.1. Risk Reduction. Applying risk management measures that reduce the likelihood and/or impact of the risk. 
3.2. Risk Transfer. Transferring risk by delegating functions and related responsibilities to a third party and reallocating duties and accountability accordingly. 
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
3.3. Risk Avoidance. Avoiding risk by not initiating or discontinuing activities that generate the risk. 
3.4. Risk Acceptance. Accepting risk when the risk factors are known but the Company has limited ability to manage it, or when managing the risk would require disproportionately high resources, or when the risk level is considered acceptable. Such risks are monitored continuously, and in the event of significant negative changes, the risk owner proposes actions in response to increased risk exposure. 
3.5. Risk Elimination. Eliminating risk entirely when targeted risk management measures successfully remove (close) the risk. 
4. Monitoring and control: we conduct ongoing monitoring of the Company’s risk register and the implementation of the Risk Treatment Plan. Monitoring results are regularly (at least monthly) provided to the Company’s CEO, the Litgrid Executive Council, and risk owners, and quarterly to the Litgrid Board and the EPSOG Audit Committee. 
5. Communication and reporting: we regularly and promptly share information among participants in the risk management process that is relevant to assessing risks and their management. Information relevant to employees about risks and risk management is communicated through staff meetings, Executive Council format sessions, and regular updates on the Company’s intranet. 
11.1.
Climate change risk assessment process 
Taking into account the importance of climaterelated challenges in the energy sector and the requirements of EU regulations (the EU Taxonomy Regulation, the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS), and others) related to climate risk disclosure, in 2023 the EPSOG Group carried out a comprehensive assessment of climaterelated risks, opportunities, and climate scenarios (based on Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) climate scenarios) for the short term (2026), medium term (by 2030), and long term (by 2050). The assessment within the Group was performed in accordance with the recommendations of the Task Force on Climaterelated Financial Disclosures (TCFD). 
We assessed both physical risks (the likelihood of extreme events affecting transmission infrastructure, buildings, and offices) and transition risks (regulatory, technological, reputational, market, and societal pressure) related to climate change. Measures and indicators for managing these risks were also developed. 
Climaterelated considerations fall within the broader spectrum of sustainability topics and are integrated into the Company’s decisionmaking processes. 
Climate change risk assessment process
'Please unpack the Result.zip and reopen this file.'
We assessed climaterelated risks using the scale defined in the EPSOG Group’s Risk Management Methodology. The impact of risks was defined as their financial effect on revenues. The assessment was carried out at the level of each Group company, and the results were consolidated in the overall Group level analysis.
11.2.
Main risks and their management 
Litgrid conducts annual risk identification sessions, performs risk assessments, establishes risk monitoring indicators, and defines risk management measures. Detailed information can be found in Section 5.4.3. 
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
In 2025, the Company’s risk register included 126 identified risks, of which eight were managed at the Group level, 50 at the Company level, and 68 at the division level. In 2025, after applying targeted risk management measures, 17 risks were closed, thereby preventing potential negative consequences. 
It should be noted that information related to risks, their indicators, and risk management reports is considered confidential. Therefore, this report presents only general (more abstract) information related to risks managed at the Group level.

ANTI-CORRUPTION AND ANTI-CORRUPTION CONDUCT
The Company’s business decisions are guided by the principles of objectivity, impartiality, transparency, accountability and the rule of law, combined with the zero tolerance to corruption or any other forms and manifestations thereof. With the aim to build a transparent and trust-based Company, we continuously assess and implement measures to manage corruption risks. Litgrid’s anti-corruption activities are based on the international standard ISO 37001:2016 Anti-bribery management systems — Requirements with guidance for use, as well as the following measures: 
'Please unpack the Result.zip and reopen this file.'
In 2024, the international management system certification body issued Litgrid a certificate confirming that the implemented anticorruption management system complies with the requirements of the abovementioned standard, and in 2025 this certificate was renewed. This demonstrates the Company’s ability to prevent corruption risks through real actions and organised measures, build trust within the supply chain, and safeguard its reputation. 
The Company has also approved the 2025 Corruption Prevention Measures Plan, aimed at consistently and effectively improving the Company’s transparency system, ensuring the implementation and continuity of prevention and control measures, positively influencing the most sensitive areas of the Company’s activities and increasing organisational transparency. Each measure in the plan is assessed based on defined evaluation criteria and the expected outcome.
The Company’s key documents on anti-corruption activities are published and made available to all stakeholders and organisations on our website.
Key anti-corruption indicators are disclosed below:

Corruption risk assessment and management 
Corruption risk assessments are carried out in the Company on an annual basis in accordance with the EPSO-G Group’s Risk Management Policy and methodology, and the status of implementation of the measures identified to manage corruption risk is assessed on quarterly basis. To better manage third-party corruption risk, in 2024, together with other EPSO-G Group companies, we developed a business partner screening system, defining procedures for assessing risks related to business partners.  
In 2025, the Company identified the following corruption-related risks that could have an impact on the Company’s reputation or financial position:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
conflicts of private interests;
recruitment of people who do not meet the requirements of the Law on the Prevention of Corruption and the Law on the Protection of Objects Critical for National Security;
abuse of office or underperformance. These risks are monitored and managed at defined periodicity, using measures provided for in the Group’s Anti-Corruption Policy and the Group’s Policy of Management of Interests of Members of Collegial and Supervisory Bodies and Employees.
12.2.
Training and communication
Employee anticorruption education is an important part of the Company’s anticorruption activities. We implement it in various forms — by organising trainings led by internal or external lecturers and by preparing communication messages on anticorruption topics, with the aim of fostering consistent employee awareness. 
In April and November 2025, we organised training sessions for newly joined employees, attended by 59 colleagues. During these sessions, participants received information about the concept of corruption, potential risks, and the policies and procedures applied within the Company related to identifying and reporting potential violations. 
An online course titled “Anticorruption Awareness Training” is available to employees in the Company’s system. Newly hired colleagues are required to complete this course during their probation period, and it is also assigned to existing employees who have not yet completed it. 
The Company employees’ corruption resilience is also enhanced through other measures, such as internal communication, and by bringing to the attention of employees and members of management bodies the most important Group’s and the Company’s internal anti corruption legislation. In 2024, these internal documents were made available  to all (100%) employees of the Company (of which 16% were management). All (100%) of the Board members were also communicated on key anti-corruption legislation.
12.3.
Employee and contractor surveys
In 2025, an employee tolerancetocorruption survey was carried out to assess employees attitudes toward corruption and identify areas for improvement in the Companys anticorruption activities. A total of 216 employees (43%) participated in the survey (46% in 2024, 52% in 2023, 55% in 2022, and 54% in 2021). The survey showed that 94.4% of employees had not encountered any manifestations of corruption in their work over the past year (98% in both 2024 and 2023, 99% in 2022, and 98% in 2021), and 96.3% knew where to report corruptionrelated concerns (92% in 2024, 94% in 2023, 95% in 2022, and 91% in 2021).
The trend in the survey results show that the anti-corruption objectives are being implemented purposefully.
12.4.
Trust line
The Company also has the Helpline, where employees and other stakeholders can directly or anonymously report, without fear of negative consequences, potential violations, unethical or unfair behaviour.
Information on infringements can be submitted via the following helpline channels:

After verifying the information provided in the reports, it was determined that the allegations were unsubstantiated; therefore, no internal investigations were initiated.
12.5.
Gift policy
At the Company, we do not tolerate any gifts given in connection with employment or position, except for gifts permitted under the EPSO-G Group’s Anti-corruption Policy. Employees are prohibited from accepting any gifts of money, gift vouchers or alcoholic beverages, including gifts of low value, if the circumstances in which they are given or accepted could lead to a misunderstanding or contradiction and create the appearance of a conflict of interest.

12.6.
Employee and partners’ screening
To ensure that the Company employs only persons of impeccable repute, the measures provided for in the Laws on the Prevention of Corruption of the Republic of Lithuania and on the Protection of Objects Important to the National Security of the Republic of Lithuania are implemented to ensure the reliability of personnel (lists of positions for which applicants are screened in accordance with the procedure laid down by law have been approved and made publicly available on the Company’s external website; the responsible authorities have been contacted for each position (contacted in respect of 78 persons).  
The Company also carries out supplier (contractor) employees’ screening procedures as required by law. In all cases, when new contracts are concluded, persons are screened for compliance with the requirements of the Law on International Sanctions of the Republic of Lithuania and the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the restrictive measures in connection with military aggression against Ukraine, by checking a person’s profile in various public registers.  
It should be noted that all (100%) of the Company’s suppliers/contractors are committed to our Supplier Code of Conduct.
12.7.
Prevention of bribery of foreign officials
The Company’s anticorruption activities are targeted to managing corruption risks in Lithuania and abroad. The Company's employees cooperating with foreign officials or officials acting in foreign countries shall be guided in their activities by the principle of zero tolerance to corruption set out in the Anti-Corruption Policy and shall comply with other principles of anti-corruption activities. The EPSO-G Group companies’ Anti-Corruption Policy is available here.
In 2025 no cases of bribery of officials, corruption or other corruption manifestations were detected in the Company’s international business transactions conducted abroad or in Lithuania.
12.8.
Interest management
The Company has an integral model of declaration of private interests, which includes declaration via the PINREG, a register managed by the State Ethics Commission, and, where required by the Law on the Harmonisation of Public and Private Interests of the Republic of Lithuania, submission of internal declarations, the form of which has been approved in the Group’s Policy of Management  of  Interests  of  Employees  and  Members  of  Collegial  Bodies.  The Company  periodically  verifies  whether  all employees have  declared  their private interests, and whether they have done so properly (by performing content analysis of declarations of private interests), and provides department managers and employees with preliminary recommendations.
In addition, from 2021, periodic preventive checks are carried out of declarations of private interests submitted through PINREG to assess whether the provisions of the Law on the Harmonisation of Public and Private Interests of the Republic of Lithuania are being properly implemented (no breaches identified). The declaration of private interests is one of the critical responsibilities of employees, enabling the Company to ensure early management of conflicts of interest.
The Company’s employees avoid situations where their private interests are, or may be, in conflict (conflict of interest), and, if they are in a conflict, they recuse themselves. Conflicts of interest between staff members are reported to the parties concerned: the line manager and the head of department. Conflicts of interest arising for the Company’s management and members of the collegiate bodies are disclosed to the EPSO-G Group’s management personnel.
As part of the implementation of the Policy of Management of Interests of Employees and Members of Collegial Bodies, and to ensure the proper functioning of the conflict of interest framework, the legislation governing the management of interests in the Company was updated in 2025, clarifying the procedures for declaring, and refraining, removing, monitoring, supervising and controlling in the context of private interests.

Employees
Litgrid's goal is to create an advanced organizational culture that adheres to the principles of sustainability. The elements of this culture are inseparable: caring for the well-being of employees, development, fostering a safe work culture, equal opportunities, creating open and mutually trusting relationships with local communities and ensuring customer satisfaction with the services provided.
The company aims to become an organization that most suppliers, producers, consumers, employees, communities and representatives of other interested parties would consider as an organization that adheres to the principles of sustainability.
Litgrid follows the Employee remuneration, performance evaluation and education policy valid in the EPSO-G group of companies, the main principles of which are:
Create motivating incentives and prerequisites to encourage employees to achieve better performance, to contribute more actively to the achievement of the Company's and Group's goals, and to perform more than the formal performance of duties.
Encourage employees to create innovative, non-standard solutions and improve operations.
To ensure equivalent payment for equivalent work in terms of responsibility, competencies and contribution to the result.
Attract and retain qualified employees.
The principles of remuneration policy are the same for managers and employees. The remuneration fund is approved by the company boards.  
The Remuneration and Nomination Committee monitors the balance between control of payroll costs and incentives for employees performing their duties appropriately. The remuneration of EPSO-G managers and employees consists of two parts - a monthly remuneration and a financial incentive.
The monthly remuneration depends on the level of the employee's position and competences; the financial promotion depends on the achievement of the annual goals of the relevant Group company and on the individual evaluation of the employee's performance.
The financial incentive is not paid to the employee in case the performance does not meet the expectations according to the established evaluation criteria.
The amount of the financial incentive is estimated in the company's budget and accounted for in the financial result, which is audited and published publicly.
The financial promotion of the company's manager depends on the result of the company's annual goals, which are related to the implementation of the company's strategy and are published publicly on the company's website.
The severance pay of managers and employees does not exceed the amount determined by the legal acts of the Republic of Lithuania.  
It is envisaged that a bonus may be awarded for results of special importance.
The relevant board of the group company must be informed about the planned financial incentives and bonuses at its next meeting.
Prior agreements on the amounts of severance payments, except for company managers, whose working conditions are determined by the board, are not concluded.  
Severance pay is paid to employees in accordance with the procedure established by the Labor Code and employment contracts.
The remuneration policy does not provide for any remuneration that gives the manager, collegial body member or employee the right to shares, stock options or the right to receive remuneration based on changes in the share price or other financial instruments.
The Remuneration Policy does not provide for any form of remuneration that would grant the CEO, a member of a collegial body, or an employee the right to acquire shares, share options, or any remuneration linked to changes in the share price or other financial instruments.
Based on these principles, the company's reward system is focused on a set of financial and non-financial reward elements. The elements of the remuneration package are the fixed part of the remuneration (i.e. monthly salary), financial incentives (remuneration paid at the initiative and discretion of the company, depending on the results achieved by the company and the performance evaluation results of the employee(s), one-time bonuses, fringe benefits and emotional rewards. Emotional reward is
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
a non-financial component of the total reward, which enriches the well-being of employees and encourages employee effort, involvement in the company's activities and loyalty.  
Additional benefits provided to employees are provided to everyone, they are described in the Litgrid Collective Agreement and other internal documents of the Company. 
On 31st December 2025 there were 501employees at Litgrid. The age and educational background of our employees are well-balanced—the organization naturally combines younger, middle-aged, and more experienced professionals. This mix ensures a smooth transfer of knowledge, a blend of innovation and experience, and steady team growth.

Remuneration of collegial management bodies
The remuneration procedure for members of the boards of UAB EPSO-G and Litgrid is determined by the Remuneration Policy for Members of Collegial Bodies of State-Owned and Municipality-Owned Enterprises, approved by the Resolution No. 1092 of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania on October 14, 2015 (latest amendments adopted on August 3, 2023), as well as the updated Remuneration Guidelines for the Activities of the Board of Directors and Other Bodies of UAB EPSO-G and the UAB EPSO-G Group of Companies, approved by the sole shareholder of the parent company, the Ministry of Energy of the Republic of Lithuania, on April 26, 2024 (hereinafter referred to as the "Remuneration Guidelines"), which are published on the UAB EPSO-G website at www.epsog.lt. The company also follows the updated Manager and Board Member Remuneration Policy for Litgrid, approved by the General Shareholders’ Meeting on April 30, 2024, which is publicly available on the company's website.
The current version of the Remuneration Guidelines stipulates that remuneration for activities in the collegial bodies of the group’s companies may be paid to members who meet at least one of the following conditions, and the payment of remuneration to these members is not prohibited by applicable laws in the Republic of Lithuania:

The fixed monthly remuneration for board members is calculated based on the average monthly salary of the company’s CEO for the previous calendar year, as calculated and paid at the time of determining the remuneration, and is not recalculated throughout the board member's term, except when the previously established remuneration no longer meets the requirements set forth in the applicable legal regulations.

No other bonuses, premiums, or payments were made to the board members in 2025. 
The company's CEO's monthly salary and financial incentives are determined by the board, while the CEO sets the financial incentives for senior executives, following the Group's employee remuneration, performance evaluation, and development policy. The financial incentives for the CEO and senior management are paid once a year, upon the board's confirmation of the company's achievement of its goals. 
During the reporting period, the gender ratio on the board was 100% male. The company's board was formed on April 30, 2024, when the legal regulations regarding gender balance in boards were not yet in effect. 
The selection of the company's CEO is governed by the Group's recruitment policy, while the selection of board members is governed by the Candidate Selection Procedure for State or Municipal Enterprise, State or Municipality-Controlled Company or its Subsidiary's Collegial Supervisory or Management Body, approved by the Government of the Republic of Lithuania on June 15, 2015, Resolution No. 631, and the Group’s recruitment policy. 
The goal of the Group's recruitment policy is to establish common selection principles and practices for the group of companies, to transparently select the best candidates for collegial bodies, management, and employee positions at all levels, who meet the required qualifications, skills, experience, and values, and who effectively contribute to achieving the individual companies' and the group’s goals. 
The Group’s Equal Opportunities Policy defines the key principles applied within the EPSO-G group of companies to ensure equal opportunities and non-discrimination in all areas of employment relations. 
The group aims to increase gender diversity at the highest levels of management. Specific goals have been set to achieve ≥21% women in boards and senior management positions (CEO and department heads) by 2027, and ≥30% by 2035. Inclusive recruitment principles are applied to achieve these goals, and unconscious bias is reduced through training and discussions, while policies are reviewed and gender composition of the succession reserve is monitored. In 2025, a recruitment process was conducted for the CEO position, with external recruitment agency services procured through public procurement. Both the recruiting agency and the selection commission were informed about the applied criteria to ensure the required percentage of underrepresented gender (a legal obligation that is considered and applied as a measure). 
Currently, the upcoming Group-wide procurement for recruitment services for collegial body members and senior management positions includes these legal requirements in the technical qualification criteria. To meet the strategic goal of increasing gender balance in the Group, job titles in advertisements are initially listed in the feminine form. 
Gender balance has not yet been achieved due to structural factors in the energy sector— a limited pool of female candidates in technical fields and the term cycles of boards, which restrict rapid changes. The Group consistently strengthens talent

Formation and monitoring of the remuneration and appointment policies  
The company's board is responsible for the formation and oversight of the Group's remuneration and appointment policies. To ensure proper development of the Remuneration Policy, monitoring, and management of the salary fund, a three-member Remuneration and Appointment Committee has been established and is operational within the EPSO-G group of companies, with a majority of independent members. 
In performing this function, the EPSO-G Remuneration and Appointment Committee:

Electricity generated from renewable sources will be used to compensate for technological losses in the transmission network, thereby reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This is the second green energy procurement for covering technological losses.
June
9 June 2025 – The development plan concept for the onshore infrastructure of Harmony Link was approved. The selected route passes through the municipalities of Vilkaviškis district, Kalvarija, and Marijampolė. This interconnection with Poland will ensure commercial trading capacity and strengthen the reliability of Lithuania’s grid.

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
20.
ABOUT THE REPORT
20.1.
BP-1 General basis for preparation of sustainability statements
In this section we present the sustainability information (hereinafter referred to as the “Sustainability Report”) of the public limited company Litgrid (hereinafter referred to as “Litgrid”, “the Company” or “we”) for 2025. We prepared The Sustainability Report with reference to the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on the Reporting of Undertakings and Groups of Undertakings, and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (hereinafter referred to as the "ESRS"), to the extent these requirements are applicable to us.
The Sustainability Report forms an integral part of the Company’s 2025 part of the Annual Integrated Report. For this reporting period, we developed the Sustainability Report voluntarily. We aimed to maximise alignment with ESRS requirements and to provide comparable, clear and stakeholder-relevant information.
We are part of the EPSOG Group (hereinafter referred to as EPSOG or the Group). Therefore, our sustainability information is also included in EPSOGs consolidated Annual Integrated Report for 2025. That reporting is prepared in accordance with ESRS requirements and has been confirmed by an independent external assurance services provider.
The information disclosed in this Sustainability Report covers the period from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025 and is consistent with the scope of the Company’s financial reporting.
Following the structure set out in ESRS 1, we present the Sustainability Report in the following order:
1.
General disclosures (ESRS 2 – General disclosures);
2.
Environmental disclosures (ESRS E1 – Climate change; ESRS E4 – Biodiversity and ecosystems; ESRS E5 – Resource use and circular economy);
3.
Social disclosures (ESRS S1 – Own workforce; ESRS S3 – Affected communities; ESRS S4 – Consumers and end-users);
4.
Governance disclosures (ESRS G1 – Business conduct; Additional undertaking-specific topic – Critical infrastructure resilience);
5.
Annexes / Indices.
In the Sustainability Report, we disclose the Company’s most material sustainability matters and the related material impacts, risks and opportunities. We present this information based on Litgrid’s double materiality assessment (hereinafter “DMA”) carried out in line with ESRS principles and requirements. We describe the DMA methodology and results in sections “SBM 3” and “IRO 1”.
In the Sustainability Report we cover Litgrid’s own operations and information relating to its upstream and downstream value chain, as specified in ESRS 1.
20.2.
BP-2 – Disclosures in relation to specific circumstances
For the purposes of this report, we use the ESRS definitions of short-, medium- and long-term: short-term – up to 1 year, medium-term – 2 to 5 years and long-term – more than 5 years. This time perspective is consistent with the periods used by EPSO-G to ensure consistency of reporting across the Group.
In addition to the information required by the ESRS, we include in our Sustainability Report information in accordance with Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 supplementing Regulation (EU) 2020/852 of the European Parliament and of the Council (the "Taxonomy Regulation") – see section Disclosure under the EU Taxonomy Regulation.
To ensure comparability, we provide information for the 2023–2025 reporting periods, except for greenhouse gas (hereinafter referred to as “GHG”) indicators, for which data are provided from the base year (2019). The methodology and assumptions used to calculate Scope 3 GHG emissions may involve higher methodological uncertainty. We did not estimate any other value-chain indicators using indirect sources, unless we otherwise specified in the applicable methodology for such indicators (e.g., for GHG emissions).
We did not identify quantitative indicators or monetary amounts with a high level of measurement uncertainty.
We did not make any material changes in the preparation and presentation of sustainability information compared to the prior period. When preparing the 2025 Sustainability Report, we improved the structure of the disclosures to present the information more clearly and coherently.
We did not identify material errors relating to previous reporting periods.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Because the Sustainability Report is an integral part of the Annual Integrated Report, we provide crossreferences to other clearly identified sections of the Annual Integrated Report, including:
Litgrid governance and Board members’ experience (ESRS 2 GOV1);
Remuneration policy of the administrative, management and supervisory bodies (ESRS 2 GOV3);
Information on key elements of the overall strategy (ESRS 2 SBM1).
21.
SUSTAINABILITY GOVERNANCE
21.1.
GOV-1 – The role of the administrative, management and supervisory bodies
We do not apply separate controls or procedures dedicated solely to sustainability impacts, risks and opportunities. We integrate these aspects into our overall internal control, risk management and compliance systems and decision-making processes.
Detailed information on sustainability governance and oversight at Group level is provided in EPSOG’s Consolidated Annual Integrated Report for 2025.
Below, we summarise our administrative, management and supervisory bodies, their roles and responsibilities in managing sustainability matters
Sustainability governance and oversight
Litgrid administrative, management and supervisory bodies
Main responsibilities
Litgrid board:
- 5 non‑executive members
- 40% (2 out of 5) board members are independent
- 100% board members are male (gender balance ratio 0:5)
- Sets and reviews long‑term strategic goals and monitors indicators;
- Approves the Company’s annual targets, including sustainability-related commitments;
- Analyses and assesses Company-level risks, including sustainability-related risks such as non-compliance with occupational safety requirements, skills shortages, employee turnover and motivation, and damage caused by natural phenomena. (In the risk register, each risk is categorised under a sustainability area (environmental, social responsibility or good governance).

Board members do not hold other management positions within the Company. Two Board members are also members of EPSOG management team.
There are no directly appointed employee representatives in the administrative, management and supervisory bodies. We have a collective agreement signed with the Trade Union (employee representatives). This ensures appropriate employee representation and involvement in organisational decision-making. Further information on Litgrid’s governance is presented in the Annual Integrated Report section „9.1 The Company’s governing bodies“.
Our supervisory function is performed by the Board, as set out in the Law of the Republic of Lithuania on Companies. The Audit Committee and the Remuneration and Nomination Committee (established at the parent company) operate on a group-wide basis. They perform the functions of Litgrid’s Audit Committee and Remuneration and Nomination Committee.
The parent company’s Board may establish additional groupwide committees.

General Meeting of Shareholders
In the table below, we list the roles and describe the responsibilities of employees/ units that coordinate and implement sustainability in the Company and across the Group. Sustainability management responsibilities are defined in the relevant internal documents (work rules, unit regulations, job descriptions, etc.).
Our administrative, management and supervisory bodies oversee the identification and setting of objectives related to material impacts, risks and opportunities as part of the Company’s longterm strategy. On this basis, we define specific strategic objectives annually. We provide quarterly updates on progress by presenting and discussing a progress review with employees during quarterly meetings.

Also have appointed a person responsible for equal opportunities; this role is performed by the Head of the People and Culture Unit
Sustainabilityrelated knowledge and experience
We actively invest in strengthening sustainabilityrelated knowledge, developing competencies and attracting experts to ensure comprehensive and integrated sustainability management.
We organise trainings and presentations on sustainability topics and use external consultants when needed. In regular daytoday (Lean) meetings, managers discuss sustainability matters when relevant.
Independent Board member PierreHenri D’haene, Head of Strategy, Transformation and Sustainability at Elia (Belgian electricity transmission system operator), provides valuable insights and experience in sustainability development.
We monitor compliance with business ethics through conflictofinterest prevention measures (including declarations of private interests and recusal) and by following EPSOG ethics and interest management requirements.
More information about our Board members is available on our website.
Our administrative, management and supervisory bodies have diverse professional experience and competencies that underpin effective governance. This includes experts with specialised knowledge, including in sustainability management (environmental, social and governance areas).
These competencies ensure that our governing bodies can effectively contribute to sustainability initiatives aligned with our strategic priorities and stakeholder expectations. More information about the professional experience and education of members of our governing bodies is provided in the following sections of the Annual Integrated Report: 10.2 “Litgrid Board”, 10.4 “Board composition”, and 10.6 “Areas of responsibility of the CEO”.
21.2.
GOV2 – Information provided to, and sustainability matters addressed by, the administrative, management and supervisory bodies
We regularly inform our governing bodies about material impacts, risks and opportunities. The Board reviews and discusses key topics, including sustainability matters, at its monthly meetings.
The Board plans and conducts its activities in line with its annual work plan.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
In the reporting year, we carried out Litgrid’s double materiality assessment (DMA) for the first time. In previous years, we relied on the results of the Grouplevel DMA. Therefore, this year we assessed all topics listed in the ESRS and added additional sustainability topics that are relevant to Litgrid.
21.3.
GOV3 – Integration of sustainabilityrelated performance in incentive schemes
Following the unified Remuneration, Performance Management and Development Policy implemented by EPSOG, the Board sets objectives and performance quality criteria for the Chief Executive Officer (hereinafter referred to as “CEO”), evaluates achievement and determines financial incentives.
The CEO’s objectives align with the Company’s annual objectives, which we disclose publicly. These typically include financial targets, strategic project targets and sustainability targets. We assess achievement based on the percentage of completion. More information on remuneration is provided in the Annual Integrated Report section “Report on the implementation of the remuneration policy”.
We encourage integration of sustainability principles into daytoday activities through our Kaizen (continuous improvement) system. Each employee has an annual objective to implement Kaizen idea(s) that contribute to sustainability and deliver additional sustainability benefits. When we implement a Kaizen idea, we assign it to the relevant ESG area (Environment (E), Social (S) or Governance (G)). This helps us track sustainability benefits and strengthen our sustainability culture in a targeted way.
Board members do not receive variable remuneration (financial incentives). They receive fixed monthly remuneration only. Therefore, sustainability metrics are not integrated into the Board’s incentive system.
For the CEO and employees, our remuneration policy includes financial incentives linked to the achievement of annual objectives. The Company’s annual objectives include sustainability commitments.
21.4.
GOV4 – Statement on due diligence
We follow operational policies designed to ensure sustainability due diligence in our activities. We continuously assess potential negative impacts in our operations and value chain and seek to prevent them. We also commit to cooperate in addressing negative impacts if they occur or if we contribute to them.
In the annexes to this report, we present the table “ESRS 2 GOV4 Statement on due diligence”, which shows how our due diligence process is reflected in the Sustainability Report.
21.5.
GOV5 – Risk management and internal controls over sustainability reporting
Our sustainability reporting is based on EPSOG principles and processes related to legal compliance, risk management and internal control. We identify, assess and prioritise sustainabilityrelated risks (including climaterelated risks) using a unified likelihoodandimpact assessment approach. This approach is integrated into our overall risk management system.
The Operational Architecture Unit coordinates preparation of the Sustainability Report. We work together with Occupational Safety and Environment, Prevention, Finance, People and Culture, Legal and other units. These units manage core sustainabilityrelated activities and information.
The main sustainability reporting risks relate to human error and data consistency. We mitigate these risks by standardising sustainability reporting processes, improving ESG metric methodologies and periodically reporting progress to top management, the Board and the Audit Committee.
The Company’s management is responsible for the Sustainability Report.
22.

Note1. The Group’s commitment to achieve a netzero GHG emissions balance by 2050 includes our targets and measures related to Scope 1 and Scope 2 emission targets. In 2025, we set out an action roadmap, under which we plan in the coming years to carry out a more detailed calculation of Scope 3 GHG emissions and to model potential implementation measures through to 2050.
Note2. The planned commitments were approved in 2024 as part of the updated Group strategy; therefore, we did not determine historical and reportingyear values (n/a). In the near term (2026–2027), we plan to prepare action plans to achieve these commitments and, based on analysis, to set strategic indicator values for the coming years. In 2026, the Group plans to carry out an assessment of negative impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems and to prepare an action plan (guidelines) to achieve the target.
Value chain
We present a diagram below that visually represents our value chain, encompassing both the upstream value chain, where suppliers and resources are involved, through our core activities, to the downstream value chain, where value is delivered to customers and society. The diagram highlights the key resources and dependencies in our operating model.

22.2.
SBM2 – Interests and views of stakeholders
To implement our strategic objectives successfully and ensure sustainable development, we consider it essential to maintain continuous dialogue with stakeholders, take their expectations into account and integrate them into decisionmaking. Stakeholders are groups that have a significant influence on us, or that we can significantly impact.
We prepared the content of the Sustainability Report based on the insights, needs and expectations of our key stakeholders. We also used these insights in our double materiality assessment (DMA).
The table below summarises the main stakeholder groups, how we engage with them, how we involved them in the DMA, which sustainability topics are most relevant, how these insights affect our strategy and/ or business model, and what we plan to do next. Where we identified gaps in engagement needed to fully understand a stakeholder’s expectations and impacts, we carried out additional engagement during the DMA. We will continue regular stakeholder engagement and review it with future DMA updates.
Our administrative, management and supervisory bodies are informed about stakeholder concerns when needed.

DOUBLE MATERIALITY ASSESSMENT
23.1.
SBM3 – Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and the business model
23.2.
IRO1 – Description of the processes used to identify and assess material impacts, risks and opportunities
In this Sustainability Report, we selected the information and metrics based on our DMA. Applying the DMA principle, we assessed sustainability matters from two perspectives: (i) how our activities impact the environment and society (impact materiality) and (ii) how sustainability matters affect our financials, performance and outlook (financial materiality).
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
In 2024, EPSOG conducted a DMA for the first time at Group level. In 2025, we conducted the DMA at Litgrid level to assess the topics that are material to us more precisely.
In conducting the DMA, we relied on the general ESRS requirements, and the implementation guidance issued by the European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG). During the assessment, we examined both impact materiality and financial materiality, as well as the interconnections between them, drawing on the Company’s internal operating procedures, policies, methodologies and available data, such as surveys. For the financial materiality assessment, we applied the risk assessment principles used across the Group and, where relevant, relied on information from the Company’s risk register.
During the double materiality assessment, we followed the time horizons defined by the ESRS:
short-term: the period used as the reporting period in the Company’s financial statements (1 year);
medium-term: 2–5 years;
long-term: more than 5 years.
The main stages of the DMA were as follows:
Understanding the context – we analysed our operations, value chain partners and stakeholders.
In order to understand the context and scope of the assessment, we analysed our operations as well as the upstream and downstream parts of the value chain (the analysis was not limited to direct contractual business relationships). During the process, we developed a map of Litgrid’s value chain and key stakeholders, which we used in the assessment.
Preliminary assessment – we identified potentially material sustainability matters.
When compiling the list of potentially material sustainability matters, we took into account the list of sustainability topics, sub-topics and sub-sub-topics set out in Appendix A to ESRS 1 (hereinafter, sustainability matters).
We carried out a preliminary assessment to determine which sustainability matters were not material for Litgrid. Non-material sustainability matters were not included in the double materiality assessment conducted during Stage 3. To support this decision, we documented the reasons why a topic was not considered material.
Double materiality analysis – we assessed the identified sustainability matters from both the impact materiality and financial materiality perspectives.
We carried out a detailed assessment of the potentially material sustainability matters in order to identify material impacts, risks and opportunities (hereinafter, IROs).
In the course of the assessment, we focused primarily on areas where, considering the nature of the Company’s operations, business relationships, geographic locations and other relevant risk factors, impacts, risks and opportunities could reasonably be expected to arise.
In assessing material IROs, we also paid attention to relationships that could be associated with such IROs, for example, relationships with actors connected to “hot spots”, i.e. areas where actual or potential impacts are likely to occur, or with actors on whom the Company’s business model is highly dependent with regard to goods and services.
Stakeholder engagement
When conducting the DMA, we involved stakeholders in the following ways (see the table in SBM2 – Interests and views of stakeholders for more detail):
Direct engagement: we conducted surveys and/ or submitted written questions to stakeholders;
Review of documentation and additional sources: we analysed stakeholder documents (e.g., sustainability reports, policy descriptions, questionnaire results) when individual responses were not available or not relevant.
We also included nature as a silent stakeholder. We selected different engagement methods and levels based on the AA1000 Stakeholder Engagement Standard.
Based on the DMA results, in this report we disclose — by ESRS topics — how we manage each material topic, including the related impacts, risks and/ or opportunities.
Impact materiality assessment
We assessed impact materiality by considering if the topic is actual or potential, positive or negative and if it has an impact on people or the environment in the short, medium and long term.
For actual negative impacts, we based materiality on the severity of the impact. For potential negative impacts, we considered both severity and likelihood. We assessed severity using the following factors: scale, scope and irremediability.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
For positive impacts, we assessed materiality as follows: for actual positive impacts – based on scale and scope; or potential positive impacts – based on scale, scope and likelihood.
Impact materiality categories
Based on our impact materiality scoring formulas, actual and potential impacts were classified into four categories:
Informative (final score: 0–3)
Important (final score: 4–6)
Material (final score: 7–9)
Critical (final score: 10–12)
Financial materiality assessment
The objective of the financial materiality assessment was to assess emerging financial risks and opportunities. We assessed financial materiality by considering the magnitude of financial effects and the likelihood of occurrence, which may arise both through our own operations and through our value chain in the short, medium and long term.
At this stage, we applied EPSOG Group’s risk assessment methodology. We determined the probability of a risk (very low: <10%, low: 11–30%, medium: 31–50%, high: 50–70%, very high: 70–100%), assessed the impact and the risk level, and then assigned a materiality category. EPSOG Group’s risk management policy is available in the Group’s documentation.
We considered that sustainabilityrelated risks and opportunities may arise due to our impacts on the environment and stakeholders and/ or due to dependencies on resources (including relationships). Therefore, we performed the financial materiality assessment after the impact materiality assessment.
When assessing financial materiality, we followed this sequence:
If a topic was included in Litgrid’s risk register, we transferred the risk assessment directly (at EPSOG Group level).
If the financial value of a risk or opportunity was known (e.g., amount of a fine, project/ investment cost), we compared it with Litgrid’s annual revenues and determined the magnitude of the financial effect (assigning it to a defined EURdenominated range).
If we could not determine the financial expression of the risk, we assessed the financial effect using expert judgement (qualitative assessment), applying the risk impact scale (impact on people’s health, business continuity, reputation or the environment).
Finally, the DMA results (the list of impacts, risks and opportunities and the DMA matrix) were agreed internally and presented to the Company’s management. Final approval was given through a formal approval by the CEO in the document management system.

E1 CLIMATE CHANGE
24.1.
SBM-3 Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model
As part of Litgrid’s double materiality assessment for the topic “Climate Change”, we identified significant impacts and risks related to climate adaptation, climate change mitigation, and energy consumption. We summarised the material impacts and the risk in the table below.
Following the update of the DMA, the material sub-topics remained unchanged, however we refined the wording of the impacts. Additionally, we identified one additional material positive impact and one additional material risk, while some previously identified risks are no longer considered material.
Material impacts, risks and opportunities related to climate change
Sustainability topic
Impacts and the risk
Climate change adaptation
Financial risk: more frequent extreme weather (strong winds) may increase costs due to the need for more resilient structures and unplanned grid restoration works, leading to higher investments.
Our main physical risk is linked to increasingly frequent extreme weather, especially strong winds. In recent years, heat/cold waves and longer rainy periods related to climate change have not caused additional financial losses. The transmission grid is designed to withstand weather conditions historically observed in Lithuania.
In 2026, we plan to update the Group-level climate risk assessment.
Climate change mitigation
Actual positive impact: we play an important role in enabling Lithuania’s energy sector transformation to a green‑energy‑based system and its decarbonisation.
Actual negative impact: our Scope 1–3 GHG emissions contribute to climate change. The largest share of the Company’s GHG emissions arises from technological losses in the grid (Scope 2 emissions).
Energy
Actual negative impact: from significant energy consumption in our own operations.
Part of the electricity in our operations is lost due to technical transmission losses that arise during electricity transmission. We also consume electricity to support equipment operation, office use, and EV charging.
To clearly define the impact, we briefly define GHG and climate change. Climate change refers to longterm changes in the global climate system, mainly driven by rising concentrations of greenhouse gases (hereafter “GHG”) in the atmosphere. GHG are generated in most human activities—energy, industry, transport and everyday life. Every activity that requires energy, raw materials or movement generates some GHG.
Our objective is to consistently reduce GHG emissions by implementing more efficient solutions, selecting appropriate technologies, and responsibly using land resources to minimize our climate impact.
GHG from our own operations (Scopes 1 and 2) account for a significant share (about 70%) of our total GHG footprint. The remaining share arises across the value chain (transport and logistics services, construction and maintenance of grid infrastructure, IT maintenance, etc.).
We reduce Scopes 1 and 2 emissions through our GHG reduction plan, and we are strengthening Scope 3 management through supplychain engagement and strategic objectives.
GHG scope table
Scope 1
Scope 2
Scope 3

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
All these GHG emissions contribute to overall atmospheric GHG concentration.
Link with strategy and business model, and how we respond
We implement Lithuania’s and the EU’s strategy for integrating renewable energy sources and transitioning towards 100% electricity generation from renewables. This enables both us and all consumers to increasingly use renewable energy in operations and production.
We play an important role in enabling Lithuania’s energy sector transformation to a greenenergybased system. We have integrated a significant share of renewable generation into Lithuania’s electricity transmission grid (2.887 GW within the Litgrid grid). We implement the Government of the Republic of Lithuania programme for integrating renewables. We enable Lithuania’s energy transition by expanding and operating the transmission grid to integrate renewable generation. By connecting new wind and solar capacity, we support decarbonisation and strengthen energy security.
Our commitments:
To expand the use of renewable energy sources;
to promote the implementation of energy efficiency improvement measures;
to create favourable conditions for connecting renewable energy producers to the infrastructure we operate;
to communicate the benefits of clean, renewable energy and to promote its use among customers, suppliers, partners, communities, academia and public authorities;
to develop employee competencies for grid resilience to climate change and for reducing CO₂ footprint;
to reduce Scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 95% by 2030;
to achieve netzero GHG emissions balance by 2050;
to ensure that by 2029, 100% of electricity used to cover technological losses is covered by renewable electricity with guarantees of origin;
to ensure that by 2035, at least 50% of our business partners have set GHG reduction targets aligned with the Group’s climate transition plan;
to model Scope 3 GHG emission reduction scenarios for 2040–2050, define measures and monitor implementation.
The largest share of GHG emissions in our operations arises from technological losses incurred when transmitting electricity through highvoltage installations. Technological losses are unavoidable and depend on the amount of transmitted energy, which is driven by electricity demand.
To manage material impact, we have developed a GHG emissions reduction plan. It outlines measures to reduce Scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2030 (we describe this plan and targets in more detail in sections E1–1 – Transition plan for climate change mitigation, E1–4 – Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation, E1–3 – Actions and resources related to climate change policy). During the reporting period, we developed Scopes 1 and 2 GHG reduction modelling through 2040, aiming for climate neutrality by 2040. Although our Strategy 2035 includes the target "Net-zero GHG emissions balance by 2050," modelling such a distant period is challenging due to the uncertain future electricity demand and the associated GHG emissions dependent on it.

E11 – Transition plan for climate change mitigation
In our GHG emissions reduction plan, we set a target to reduce our GHG emissions by 99.53% by 2030. Currently, the plan does not cover Scope 3 GHG reductions.
The plan also sets targets for the share of green electricity in technological losses. It provides that the share of green electricity used to cover technological losses, relative to actual losses, must be no less than: 2024 – 10%, 2025 - 20%, 2026 – 55%, 2027 – 70%, 2028 – 80%, 2029 – 100%.
The GHG Emission Reduction Plan is part of the Litgrid Strategy 2035. It outlines objectives, actions, and resources for the transition to a lower-carbon economy. Through these measures, we aim to contribute to the global goal of limiting warming to 1.5°C and to reduce our climate impact.
We consider this GHG emission reduction plan to be the initial version of the transition plan. In the future, the plan will be reviewed and refined based on the latest data and modelling.
Our GHG reduction objectives are described in more detail in E14 – Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation, while the planned actions and measures are outline in E13 – Climate Change PolicyRelated Actions and Resources.
GHG emission reduction plan was approved by the CEO of Litgrid (22 October 2024, Order No. 24IS226). The plan was also presented to Litgrid's Board.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
In 2025 we continued implementing the plan in line with the 2024 targets and EPSOG strategic commitments; we did not add new measures in 2025.
In 2025, we completed Scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions modelling through to 2040 and 2050; these calculations provide a basis for further targetsetting. In 2026, we plan to prepare a Scope 3 GHG reduction plan.
The measures set out in our GHG emissions reduction plan are closely aligned with our strategy and Environmental policy. The EPSOG Group’s GHG reduction targets have been transferred and aligned with Litgrid’s strategy. Based on the latest GHG modelling and the Group’s commitments, we began updating Litgrid’s strategy in 2025. In the updated strategy, we retain the objective to reduce GHG emissions and to prioritise circular procurement practices.
We align our climate ambition with the UN 2030 Agenda, the Paris Agreement, the European Green Deal, Lithuania’s National Energy Independence Strategy, the National Energy and Climate Plan and the National Climate Change Management Agenda, and we implement these commitments through the EPSOG Group Environmental policy. We are subject to EU Parisaligned benchmarks.
In 2024, EPSOG joined the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). In 2025, due to methodological circumstances, the Group decided not to continue the target validation process with SBTi. In the future, we will consider other options for verifying Group targets.
24.3.
E12 – Policies related to climate change mitigation and adaptation
For climate change mitigation and energy, we follow the policies developed at EPSOG Group level. The EPSOG policy framework and related information are summarised in Section 2 (ESRS General disclosures), under MDRP Policies adopted to manage material sustainability topics.
“EPSOG” Group Sustainability Policy
As an EPSOG Group company, we follow the EPSOG Group Sustainability Policy, which sets our strategic sustainable development objectives. The policy aims to help deliver Lithuania’s strategic energy goals, support the transition to a climateneutral economy, ensure the secure operation of energy transmission systems, and create favourable conditions for the efficient use of infrastructure and the opportunities offered by energy exchanges, thereby contributing to societal wellbeing.
EPSOG’s overarching sustainability ambition is to drive the transformation of the energy sector while maintaining a balanced approach across environmental, social and economic objectives. The policy applies to all EPSOG Group activities, including our own operations and both the upstream and downstream parts of the value chain. No policy exemptions have been established; however, specific measures may differ depending on the operational context of each Group company.
We are committed to the principles of human rights, labour, environmental protection and anticorruption as set out in the United Nations Global Compact (UN Global Compact). We also contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a particular focus on:
Ensuring access to clean and modern energy (SDG 7: Ensure access to sustainable energy and promote its use).
Acting on climate change (SDG 13: Act on climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions).
Developing modern infrastructure and fostering innovation (SDG 9: Build sustainable infrastructure, promote innovation and support sustainable industrial development).
Creating safe and decent working conditions, supporting employee wellbeing, and building a sustainable supply chain (SDG 8: Promote sustainable economic growth, employment and better working conditions; and SDG 12: Promote sustainable consumption and production).
We implement our strategic activities guided by sustainability principles:
Environmental – we enable climateneutral energy and reduce the environmental impact of our operations.
Social – we build a progressive organisation grounded in sustainability principles.
Governance and economic – we ensure transparent and efficient management and development of the energy exchange platform.
Stakeholders can access the EPSOG Group Sustainability Policy, which also applies to us, on our website. EPSOG companies report on the implementation of sustainability activities at least once a year by publishing either standalone sustainability reports or sustainability information integrated into the EPSOG consolidated Integrated annual report.
The commitments set out in the EPSOG Group Sustainability Policy are linked to the following Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):

EPSOG Group’s Environmental Policy
Under the EPSOG Group’s Environmental Policy, we commit to monitoring the environmental impact of our activities and to implementing measures to mitigate climate change, improve energy efficiency, and expand the use of renewable energy sources.
In accordance with this policy, we commit to:
calculate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and monitor the use and consumption of natural and energy resources, as well as the volumes of waste generated;
implement advanced technologies to reduce GHG emissions and other environmental impacts by 2030;
use certified green electricity in administrative activities;
expand the use of renewable energy sources to meet the technological needs of transmission grid infrastructure;
prioritise low-emission transport solutions and consistently reduce the use of polluting fuels;
promote the implementation of energy efficiency improvement measures;
facilitate the connection of green energy producers to the infrastructure we operate;
disseminate information on the benefits of clean energy generated from renewable sources and encourage its uptake among stakeholders.
Stakeholders can access the EPSOG Group’s Environmental Policy, which also applies to us, on our website.
Both the EPSOG Group’s Sustainability Policy and the EPSOG Group’s Environmental Policy are kept under regular review, considering stakeholder surveys and materiality analysis, to ensure their relevance to Group companies and stakeholders.
When shaping and implementing our sustainable development actions, we seek comprehensive stakeholder engagement and promote transparent and fair collaboration with consumers, producers, suppliers, the public, the shareholder, employees, the media, and other stakeholders.
Existing policies cover all the significant impacts and risks identified in the climate change materiality assessment.
The units responsible for implementing these policies ensure that environmental aspects are identified in a timely manner, environmental objectives are set, plans are developed, and targets are defined to improve environmental performance. They also ensure that sufficient resources are allocated to achieve the objectives, periodically monitor results, audit processes, and evaluate the technologies and working methods used.
24.4.
E1-3 Actions and resources in relation to climate change policies
To deliver the climate change mitigation targets set out in our strategy and in our environmental and sustainability policies, and to meet our commitments to investors, banks, regulatory authorities and other stakeholders, we adopt a key measure: utilising green energy to cover technological losses and our own electricity consumption (decarbonisation lever: usage of renewable energy). This measure makes the most significant contribution to reducing our GHG emissions. We do not assess the effectiveness of other measures in our GHG reduction plan in detail, as their impact on total GHG emissions is small (up to 1%).
We have planned the use of green energy to cover technological losses and our own consumption on a yearbyyear basis through to 2030, progressively increasing the overall GHG reduction effect.
In 2025, we signed a longterm green electricity supply agreement with UAB “Ignitis”. The agreement enters into force on 1 January 2026 and will remain in effect until 31 December 2032. In addition, we plan to procure green electricity through an additional instrument—a financial PPA purchase—which we aim to finalise in 2026. This step will make a significant contribution to implementing our GHG reduction plan
It is important to note that technological losses may increase as we expand the electricity grid to meet system needs. However, as more renewable generation capacity is connected, the share of “green” electricity increases. As a result, the GHG emissions associated with residual (nongreen) electricity decrease.
Other measures in our plan:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Technological measures to reduce energy consumption for own use (decarbonisation levers – energy efficiency and consumption reduction; usage of renewable energy):
-
Installation of efficient heating and ventilation systems (inverter air conditioners and electric radiators) in control panels of transformer substations and switchgears.
-
Installation of solar power plants on the roofs of control panels in refurbished and newly constructed transformer substations (hereinafter referred as “TS”) and switchyards; substation refurbishment.;
-
Installation of a solar power plant on the roof of the administrative building.
Technological measures aimed at reducing the volume of technological losses (decarbonisation lever – process modification):
-
Increasing the conductor cross-section in reconstructed overhead lines to enhance transmission capacity in response to system demand.
Other technological measures to reduce GHG emissions (decarbonisation lever – process modification):
-
We aim to ensure that, from 2028 onwards, newly reconstructed 110 kV substations are installed without the use of SF₆ gas.
Administrative measures (decarbonisation levers – electrification; energy efficiency and consumption reduction).
-
We procure hybrid and electric cars.
-
In our Vilnius office, we control airconditioning operating time outside working hours through system settings, considering outdoor and indoor temperatures.
Implementation of the GHG reduction plan has been assigned to various Litgrid units. Our Occupational Safety and Environment Unit monitors implementation and provides quarterly reports to Litgrid’s Head of Transmission Grid.
Actions grouped by GHG scope:
Scope 1:
Phasing out SF6 circuit breakers when reconstructing 110 kV transformer substations (TS). By the end of 2026, we plan to have completed the reconstruction of 5 110 kV substations without SF6 circuit breakers, with 13 SF6free circuit breakers installed. By 2030, we plan to have 10 SF6free substations.
Procurement of hybrid and electric cars.
Scope 2:
Purchase of green electricity to cover technological losses and electricity consumed for own use.
Use of green electricity in the Vilnius central office and Kaunas TS offices.
Installation of solar power plants on the roofs of TS and switchgear control panels.
Reconstruction projects (e.g., modernisation of Jonava, Jurbarkas and Kruonis PSHP (Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Plant) substations);
Increasing conductor crosssection in reconstructed overhead lines in response to system demands.
Optimising airconditioning operation outside working hours in the Vilnius central office using building management system settings and reducing energy consumption.
All measures are integrated into Litgrid’s strategic plans and regular monitoring processes. There is only a minor risk that the measures set out in the GHG Reduction Plan will not be implemented on time. To manage this risk, we monitor the implementation of the GHG Plan measures on a quarterly basis and report progress to management.
Resources to implement the measures
Resources for implementing the measures set out in the GHG emissions reduction plan are allocated within the Company’s budget in accordance with applicable legislation. The main expenses in 2025 related to the use of green electricity to cover technological losses and own consumption needs were associated with the acquisition of guarantees of origin.
Costs already incurred during the reporting period amount to EUR 38,750.88 (of which EUR 38,342.40 relates to technological losses and EUR 408.48 to our own consumption). These costs are included in cost of sales (technological losses costs).
Projected costs for 2026 amount to EUR 78,365 (technological losses) and EUR 600 (our own consumption), calculated based on the current market price.
Preliminary investments planned for the implementation of the GHG Reduction Plan by 2030:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Purchase of green energy to cover technological losses and electricity for own consumption – EUR 390,000 (guarantees of origin for 2024–2025).
Use of green electricity for the Company’s own consumption in offices, with separate metering – EUR 25,632 (2024–2030).
Solar power plant installations in refurbished and newly constructed transformer substations and switchyards – EUR 460,800.
Solar power plant installation on the roof of the central office building in Vilnius – EUR 75,000.
Installation of SF6free equipment in newly reconstructed substations (10 TS) – EUR 2 million
By purchasing guarantees of origin, we demonstrate that technological losses were incurred from electricity generated from renewable energy sources. This reduces our Scope 2 GHG emissions (marketbased method).
Measures implemented and results achieved
Actions completed in 2025:
We have reviewed the available data necessary for the detailed calculation of Scope 3 GHG emissions and for the further development of the plan.
We have detailed the data assigned to Scope 1 and Scope 2 and their categorization to ensure a consistent and comparable accounting process.
We carried out Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG modelling calculations up to 2040, establishing the basis for further delivery of our climate targets.
We started preparing the Scope 3 GHG reduction plan project, which we will continue in 2026.
Other significant work carried out in 2025:
We approved 12 design tasks for the installation of efficient heating and ventilation systems (inverter air conditioners and electric radiators) in control rooms of substations and switchgears, aiming to reduce energy consumption and improve equipment efficiency.
We approved 12 design tasks for the installation of solar power plants on control panel roofs in refurbished and newly constructed TS and switchyards, increasing local green electricity generation.
We completed the reconstruction of one TS with solutions enabling the phaseout of SF6 gas.
We carried out procurement procedures for the acquisition of electric and hybrid vehicles.
Impact of implemented measures on GHG emissions (compared to 2019):
2022: GHG emissions decreased by 5.28%.
2023: GHG emissions decreased by 7.28%.
2024: GHG emissions increased by 31.6%.
2025: GHG emissions increased by 1.9%.
Drivers of the 2025 outcome:
The diesel emission factor increased slightly compared with 2024, while the petrol factor decreased.
The drone no longer uses petrol; it is charged with electricity at our Litgrid stations.
Petrol consumption in vehicles increased by approximately 3,000 litters, and diesel consumption increased by approximately 10,000 litters.
Lower SF6 leakage resulted in a reduction of 115 tCO₂e.
Our solar power plants on substation roofs reduced GHG emissions by 35.15 tCO₂e.
Guarantees of origin reduced GHG emissions by 45,847.94 tCO₂e.
Achievements in reducing GHG emissions in prior periods are described in our annual GHG reports and sustainability reports. These actions are important for investors, banks, the National Energy Regulatory Council, relevant ministries and other stakeholders.
24.5.
E1-4 – Targets related to climate change mitigation and adaptation
We have set measurable, outcomeoriented and timebound targets. We use these targets to assess our progress in the context of climate change.
We set our targets based on the latest GHG modelling. We update the modelling annually, considering technological developments and system development scenarios.
Based on updated modelling performed in 2025, we assessed new forecasts for technological losses and extended the analysis horizon to 2040–2050 (instead of 2030). We set an ambition to achieve a 99.31% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 2029, compared with the 2019 base year.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
When we break down our 2025 GHG profile, we see the following main categories:
Technological losses – 93.4%.
Our own consumption – 6.1%.
SF6 gas – 0.2%.
Fuel – 0.2%.
Electricity consumption in the Vilnius office – 0.06%.
Heating in the Vilnius office – 0.006%.
Our GHG emissions reduction plan covers all these categories, and we aim to reduce emissions in each of them. We focus primarily on technological losses and our own consumption.
In the table below, we present the projected emissions and the expected impact of the initiatives we are implementing.

Our key measure is the use of renewable electricity to cover technological losses and our own consumption. To implement this measure, we enter contracts with green energy producers and suppliers. We also purchase guarantees of origin to cover electricity consumed for technological losses and our own consumption.
From the current year onward, we plan that the share of green electricity (for technological losses and our own consumption) will be at least:
2024 – 10%;
2025 – 20%;
2026 – 55%;
2027 – 70%;
2028 – 80%;
2029 – 100%.
Methodologies and key assumptions used to set targets
When setting our GHG reduction targets, we relied on modelling that assessed projected volumes of technological losses and our own consumption. We also assessed the impact of our reduction initiatives in financial terms (EUR) and in terms of CO₂equivalent emissions (tCO₂e). We used three scenarios to assess risks to achieving the targets and to define actions to manage those risks. We recalculated the data using updated emission factors to ensure accuracy and relevance.
Because emission factors may change over time, we regularly review the data and perform trial calculations to ensure that the targets we have set remain achievable.
A detailed description of the planned actions and measures is provided in E13 – Actions and resources in relation to climate change policies.
We monitor progress through regular reporting and comparison with the 2019 baseline. We also carry out quarterly monitoring: we collect information on implementation of measures from the responsible units and present it to management.
We disclose the key performance indicators required under Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178 in the section Disclosure under the EU Taxonomy Regulation.
All our targets are directly linked to the EPSOG Group Sustainability Policy, strategy, and national and international targets. We also base our targets on sciencebased evidence.
In addition, the key measures in our GHG reduction plan (using green electricity to cover technological losses and our own consumption) were coordinated with the National Energy Regulatory Council and relevant ministries.

Note. The reduction is expressed relative to the base year (2019). We completed this table based on the 2025 modelling and Strategy 2035. We assessed possible mitigation measures and projected emissions and modelled the amount of green electricity needed to cover technological losses and our own consumption to achieve our GHG reduction targets and the EPSOG Group targets. The planned decarbonisation levers for achieving the projected reduction are described in E13 – Actions and resources in relation to climate change policies.
Based on the modelling, we expected our GHG emissions to increase by 6.7% in 2025, but the calculated actual outcome was a 1.9% increase compared with 2019. This better than forecast result supports achievement of the GHG reduction level set at EPSOG Group level. The Group’s longterm target is a 50% reduction by 2030 compared with 2019 (Scope 1 and 2). To achieve this target, a GHG reduction plan has been prepared, and we implement and monitor its measures consistently. At EPSOG Group level, the ambition is to reach a netzero GHG emissions balance by 2040/2050 (specific measures and targets have not yet been identified).

E1-5 Energy consumption and mix
Methodology for calculating energy consumption
We obtain energy consumption data from commercial invoices and/or accounting systems. We report all quantities in MWh and, where necessary, convert accounting units (e.g., litres or kWh) into MWh using publicly available conversion factors/systems.
When calculating individual energy categories, we apply the following principles:
Crude oil and petroleum products fuel (MWh) – we calculate this based on actual fuel consumption in vehicles and mobile equipment.
Purchased fossil energy (MWh) – we calculate this by aggregating consumption of fossilbased electricity and heat used for our own consumption, technological losses, offices and heating.
Purchased renewable energy (MWh) – we calculate this based on consumption volumes of certified renewable energy (e.g., supported by guarantees of origin).
Electricity generated by our solar power plants and consumed for our own use (MWh) – we calculate this based on actual electricity generated by solar plants (kWh), converted to MWh.

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Note. In 2025, our solar power plants generated 61,889 kWh of electricity for our own use. This means we generated about 2.5 times more electricity than the year before last (in 2023 we generated 20,183 kWh).
We do not generate electricity from nonrenewable sources. The table includes petrol and diesel consumption, thermal energy, electricity generated by our solar power plants for our own use, and the share of renewable energy substantiated by guarantees of origin.
In 2025, petrol (approx. 3,000 litres) and diesel (approx. 10,000 litres) consumption in vehicles increased (category (2) in the table) due to transmission grid expansion, which required more intensive line inspections.
In 2025, we purchased twice as many guarantees of origin as in 2024; therefore, the share of renewable energy sources in the overall energy mix increased.
Methodology for calculating energy intensity
To determine energy consumption intensity, we classify our activity (all revenues) under Sector E (electricity transmission). The indicator is disclosed in the Company’s financial statements.

E1-6 – Gross Scopes 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions and total GHG emissions
GHG emissions calculation methodology
We calculated our GHG emissions in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (GHG Protocol) and the ESRS standards and recommendations. In this report, we present the calculated GHG emissions from our operations, expressed in CO₂ equivalent (CO₂e).
We carried out the calculation based on the knowledge and methodologies applied by market financial institutions and energy resource suppliers. The assessment includes not only carbon dioxide (CO₂) but also other greenhouse gases such as methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O) and fluorinated gases (HFCs), converting them to CO₂e using standard conversion factors.
Emissions consolidation method: operational control (Operational Control).
The baseline year for GHG calculations is 2019, as this was the first year in which we began to systematically assess and calculate generated emissions.
Emission factors (hereafter referred as “EFs”): We selected emission factors based on reliable sources and national and international guidance, prioritising geographically closest data. When choosing factors, we first use supplierprovided EFs; if these are not available, we use EFs closest to the location (Lithuanian data is preferred); if those are not available, we use the most recent available EFs. Sources of emission factors used:
UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) databases;
Association of Issuing Bodies (AIB) databases;
Exiobase databases and others.
In 2024, based on updated EFs and a revised natural gas calculation methodology, we recalculated the 2019 baseline Scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions. To ensure data comparability and enable accurate monitoring of the Group’s performance and progress, analogous recalculations were also performed for the 2020–2023 GHG emissions data.
The latest GHG Protocol methodological guidance indicates using AIB as the source for the residual mix factor. This method has been applied in EPSOG GHG emissions calculations to ensure accuracy and alignment with international standards.
In previous calculations, for the marketbased method we used electricity factors produced by the thirdparty system OneClickLCA.
The following Scope 3 categories are included in our Scope 3 GHG emissions calculations: Category 1 Purchased goods and services, Category 2 Capital goods, Category 3 Fuel extraction and transport, Category 4 Vehicle emissions, Category 5 Waste generation and disposal, Category 6 Business travel, Category 7 Employee commuting.
The largest share of GHG emissions in our operations arises from technological losses incurred in the electricity transmission grid (Scope 2 GHG emissions).
Our GHG emissions data are audited at EPSOG Group level.

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Note. As we do not exercise control over other entities, no further disaggregation of GHG emissions has been applied. Since the base year, there have been no material changes to the organizational boundary or the value chain definition; therefore, the comparability of GHG emissions data remains unaffected.
In 2025, our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions decreased by 27% compared with 2024. Compared with the 2019 base year, they increased by approximately 1.9–2%. Although fuel consumption increased somewhat during the year, SF6 gas leakages decreased. We also purchased twice as much “green” electricity to cover technological losses and our own needs. As a result of these measures, we achieved the Company’s main target – to ensure that, at Group level, GHG emissions would not increase by more than 25% compared with 2019. Based on the actual 2025 Group GHG data, we can see that emissions did not increase at all and, in fact, decreased by around 12%.
In 2025, we conducted a survey on the commuting of the Company’s employees, which made the data for Scope 3, Category 7 significantly more accurate. The results showed that GHG emissions decreased by around 140 tCO2e compared with 2024, when commuting emissions had been calculated using the Lithuanian statistical average. In 2025, Litgrid also saw a decrease in business travel, while only GHG emissions generated by services and goods increased. Overall, all Scope 3 emissions decreased by 19% compared with 2024.
GHG intensity calculation methodology
We calculate GHG intensity by dividing total annual emissions (tCOe) by net revenue (EUR million). For calculations, we use revenue figures from the Company’s financial statements. Data for 2024, 2023 and 2022 are presented in the respective financial statements as of 31 December, in the “The Company’s Statement of comprehensive income”. Financial statements and reports are publicly available on our website.
The data presented in the table below show that, in 2025, net revenue increased, while total GHG emissions across all three scopes decreased.

SBM-3 Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model
As part of Litgrid’s double materiality assessment (DMA) for “Biodiversity and ecosystems”, we identified one material negative environmental impact, as described in the table below. We did not identify any material risks or opportunities.
Compared to the previous reporting period, the material impact related to our own operations has not changed significantly; however, its wording and the relevant part of the value chain have been refined.
Material impacts, risks and opportunities in the topic “Biodiversity and ecosystems”
Sustainability topic
The impact
Species population size
Actual negative impact related to infrastructure development and maintenance: within areas beneath transmission lines, tall vegetation is removed to prevent interference with or risks to electricity network assets, and birds may be injured or killed due to collisions with overhead power lines.
The development and maintenance of our network infrastructure may disturb, alter or fragment natural terrestrial habitats, potentially affecting species population sizes. A stronger impact may occur where infrastructure development involves forest clearance, especially in protected areas. Currently, more than 606 km of Litgrid’s overhead transmission lines and approximately 21 km of cable lines run through protected areas.
In right‑of‑way (ROW) zones beneath overhead lines, we remove tall‑growing vegetation to maintain network safety and reliability and to prevent interference with transmission assets.
Impacts on bird populations occur when birds collide with overhead lines, often due to limited visibility. We carry out monitoring of bird fatalities in accordance with agreed environmental monitoring programmes; the number of monitored sections may vary depending on the volume of construction works and the requirements of environmental authorities. The Environmental Protection Agency has not calculated the significance of this impact on the Lithuanian bird population and does not apply this indicator in wildlife monitoring. Monitoring results to date indicate no significant negative impact, with only isolated cases recorded along monitored sections.
Link to strategy and business model, and how the Company responds
The identified material negative impact is directly linked to our operations and is often unavoidable, as it arises from the need to ensure the safety and reliability of the electricity transmission grid. Nevertheless, we implement measures to minimise biodiversity impacts, and our infrastructure projects incorporate mitigation and (where necessary) compensation measures.
During the construction of new or the refurbishment of existing overhead transmission lines (hereafter referred to as “OHL”), we implement additional voluntary mitigation measures to address biodiversity impacts. These include installing nesting boxes for priority bird species and fitting bird and bat flight diverters (visibility-enhancing markers and spiral devices) on conductors to reduce collision risk.
As the high-voltage transmission network extends across the entire territory of Lithuania, and the boundaries of protected areas may change over time, biodiversity impacts may occur in various protected areas, including Natura 2000 sites and nationally protected areas. The intensity of impacts depends on location-specific conditions and the nature of the works carried out.
We did not identify material negative impacts related to land degradation, desertification or soil sealing. We did not identify any material negative impacts on threatened species. Desertification risk is not relevant in Lithuania due to its temperate climate and sufficient precipitation. Land degradation in Lithuania primarily manifests as soil erosion or acidification and is not associated with high-voltage transmission lines. These processes are not widespread and do not threaten large areas. Soil sealing levels in Lithuania are among the lowest in the European Union and do not have a material impact on national ecosystems.

25.2.
E4-1 – Transition plan and consideration of biodiversity and ecosystems in strategy and business model
We did not identify any material financial risks arising from biodiversity- or ecosystem-related impacts. During the reporting period, we did not conduct a resilience analysis of our strategy and business in relation to biodiversity and ecosystems.
We disclose more detail on how our biodiversity- and ecosystem-related impacts arise from our strategy and operational model and how these considerations influence business decisions in this section, under SBM3 – Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model (Link to strategy and business model, and how the Company responds).
25.3.
E42 – Policies related to biodiversity and ecosystems
When setting objectives, targets and actions, we comply with the legal requirements and, where relevant, consider the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the Nature Restoration Regulation.
Biodiversity commitments are embedded in the currently effective EPSOG Group Environmental Policy. Approval of the updated policy is planned for Q2 2026. The content of the EPSOG Group policies and other related information are described in more detail in Section 2 “2 ESRS - General disclosures”, subsection MDRP – Policies adopted to manage material sustainability matters.
Through these commitments, we seek to ensure that biodiversity protection principles are systematically integrated across the EPSOG Group, aligned with EU biodiversity protection and restoration requirements, and contribute to the national environmental objectives.
The draft updated policy includes commitments to:
assess and manage biodiversity impacts;
protect natural habitats and species throughout all stages of operations and integrate biodiversity considerations from the earliest planning stages of new infrastructure projects;
conduct environmental impact assessments (EIA) when constructing new assets or undertaking reconstruction;
ensure biodiversity protection through appropriate mitigation and/or compensation measures during operation, expansion or modernisation of energy infrastructure;
adjust compensation measures based on environmental monitoring results;
participate in habitat restoration projects and apply sustainable land management practices when restoring vegetation affected by operations;
avoid reductions in forest area where possible;
route overhead line conductors above forest canopies where feasible and develop environmentally friendly corridor solutions;
restore sites following decommissioning to minimise adverse impacts and maximise environmental benefits;
disclose biodiversity performance results and initiatives in annual sustainability statements;
continuously assess environmental risks, develop prevention plans, and seek to avoid significant environmental incidents in the operations of the EPSO-G Group, while fostering and strengthening a zero-tolerance culture towards environmental pollution and a target of zero environmental incidents;
encourage contractors and partners to comply with environmental laws and adhere to policy principles.
We also follow the EPSO-G Group Sustainability Policy in managing biodiversity-related impacts.
The Group’s companies commit to ensuring biodiversity protection by carrying out biodiversity monitoring where necessary and, in the event of unavoidable objective circumstances, identifying and implementing appropriate mitigation and/or compensation measures. Through these commitments, we aim to minimise, to the greatest extent possible, impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems—particularly on species population sizes—and, where residual impacts remain, to provide appropriate offsetting.
We do not have other policies referred to under the topical standard ESRS E4 (e.g. on sustainable land use and/or agriculture, sustainable ocean and/or marine resource use, or deforestation). These policies are either not relevant to our operations, or their provisions are already incorporated into the commitments set out in the draft Environmental Policy.
We manage impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems (including related social consequences) in line with the following principles:
We continuously assess risks, develop prevention plans and seek to ensure that the operations of the EPSO-G Group do not have adverse impacts on biodiversity;
We develop employees’ competencies and strengthen a responsible approach to environmental protection;
We promote employee engagement in environmental initiatives both within and outside the workplace;
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
We ensure the involvement of local communities and other stakeholders in environmental impact assessment (EIA) procedures;
We cooperate on environmental matters with business partners, public authorities and institutions, non-governmental organisations, academic communities and other stakeholders;
We ensure that employees are familiar with applicable policies and implement measures that promote responsible conduct;
We transparently communicate about the environmental activities and performance indicators of the EPSO-G group of companies.
25.4.
E4-3 Actions and resources related to biodiversity and ecosystems
Measures to manage impacts
Actions to manage biodiversity impacts, particularly bird collisions, are structured according to the mitigation hierarchy:
Avoidance: during the route selection stage for new OHL projects, we assess alternatives to avoid environmentally sensitive areas. Construction works are scheduled to avoid sensitive wildlife periods (e.g. breeding seasons).
Minimisation: we carry out environmental impact assessments (EIA) and/or significance assessments to determine mitigation needs. Technical designs incorporate and implement bird protection solutions, such as flight diverters, nesting boxes, anti-perching devices and enhanced insulation components.
Restoration / Remediation: we use local soil to rehabilitate disturbed areas following construction.
Offsetting actions: in the implementation of OHL construction or reconstruction projects, we consult ornithologists to identify effective measures for improving breeding conditions. Nesting boxes are installed and maintained for target species to contribute to the conservation and enhancement of their populations (e.g. owls – 4 units; boreal owls – 6 units; kestrels – 590 units).
Prevention: to monitor Litgrid’s environmental impacts of the activities and to assess the effectiveness of implemented measures, we conduct environmental monitoring programmes agreed with the Environmental Protection Agency. These programmes define site-specific monitoring parameters for each section, such as soil compaction levels, occupancy of nesting boxes, searches for bird fatalities and assessment of predator activity, monitoring of Boros schneideri beetle abundance, and measurement of electromagnetic field strength near residential areas.
More details on selected measures:
Protective devices above insulators. Steel “fork”-type anti-perching devices and enlarged-diameter insulator disc strings installed above insulators prevent birds from landing, thereby reducing the risk of electrical flashover and bird electrocution (fatalities). During the 2014–2018 project period, 11,032 “fork” devices and 7,075 enlarged insulator discs were installed on 1,200 support poles across the country to protect the White Stork from electrocution mortality. These technical mitigation measures are installed on all reconstructed or newly constructed 110 kV overhead transmission lines.
Overhead line visibility enhancement measures
Currently installed:
>6,500 spirals;
>5,800 suspended bird flight markers (hanging diverters).
During project development, at the design stage, we consult ornithologists and obtain their recommendations regarding sections where the installation of visibility enhancement measures would be most appropriate. These are typically areas above water bodies or open landscapes intersecting bird migration corridors.
Public reporting also contributes to impact management. In 2025, additional marking of overhead lines was carried out in the Eastern region following reports from members of the public about bird collision incidents. This marking was implemented as an urgent mitigation measure in response to actual incidents, with the objective of reducing the risk of recurrence.
Nesting boxes for kestrels. Most nesting boxes installed by Litgrid are designed for kestrels. These boxes are custom-made to provide the extra-wide cavities required by the species. Locations in open landscapes are selected following recommendations from the Lithuanian Ornithological Society.
Installing nesting boxes on high-voltage power poles serves as an offsetting measure to counteract potential negative impacts from our operations—such as bird injuries or fatalities caused by collisions with overhead lines—thereby helping to maintain and increase bird populations. The effectiveness of these measures is assessed based on data from the Klaipėda Coastal Research Centre, which indicates that various environmental measures collectively contribute to a 20% annual increase in bird populations.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
In 2025, following the decommissioning of overhead lines connecting to Belarus, previously installed nesting boxes were relocated and integrated into other parts of the network. Where nest boxes can no longer be safely installed due to new tower designs, they are moved to adjacent forest edges, while maintaining their suitability as bird habitats.
In 2025, Litgrid warehouses received 150 new nesting boxes for kestrels, which regional line engineers replace during routine inspections when boxes are no longer suitable for use.
Forest clearance reduction. Actions to manage impacts related to the increased footprint of infrastructure and its maintenance (forest clearance for new overhead line routes, removal of soil for the construction of substations and pylons, site clearing) are primarily focused on impact avoidance. To manage this impact, we carry out:
spatial planning and assessment of alternatives – we prepare planning documents and carry out studies to select routes that have the least environmental impact;
impact assessment and coordination – we prepare justifications for alternatives, carry out Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) procedures, and assess the significance of Natura 2000 sites;
design and technical supervision – we prepare design briefs including environmental protection measures, coordinate technical designs, and carry out technical supervision;
final site evaluation – after construction is completed, we perform a technical assessment to ensure compliance with environmental requirements.
Beyond standard measures, we are preparing to implement additional actions to further reduce forest clearing, especially in protected areas. For a new 330 kV line (256 km) crossing sensitive habitats, the mandatory forest clearing width was reduced from 30 m to 20 m on either side of the outermost conductor. This was achieved by designing taller transmission towers, raising them from 37 m to 49 m, thus reducing the required clearing corridor. Compensation for unavoidable forest loss will be provided to the state, with funds allocated for reforestation elsewhere in Lithuania. Detailed implementation decisions are scheduled for 2026.
We are also assessing the feasibility of routing some lines over existing forests, clearing only minimal areas for tower installations. This would preserve mature forest stands and reduce the total area of vulnerable habitats. Detailed project decisions are planned for 2026.
Other measures
In 2026, at EPSOG Group level, it is planned to conduct an analysis of negative impacts on biodiversity and ecosystems and, accordingly, to prepare and implement an action plan and related guidelines to reduce negative impacts.
All measures described are directly linked to the commitments outlined in the current Environmental Policy update. Actions described here are ongoing. Identified impacts are addressed with additional monitoring and/or immediate mitigation measures as needed.
EIA documentation includes specific restrictions, for example:
no driving through meadows in protected corncrake areas from 1 May to 1 July;
no overhead line corridor clearing or tree felling in lesser spotted eagle habitat areas from 1 March to 31 August;
demolition and replacement of towers in Important Bird Areas are not carried out from April to July.
We also analyse information provided by stakeholders on potential impacts of our activities and apply appropriate measures to reduce those impacts. The EPSOG Group Environmental Policy includes commitments to cooperate with stakeholders, ensuring active dialogue and responsible impact management.
Resources for implementation
We do not plan significant investments or capital expenditure in this area (relative to Litgrid’s investments and costs for other projects).
We are not dependent on external funding sources or market developments. We have not foreseen separate financial instruments (e.g., green bonds or dedicated funding), and we implement actions within the context of general environmental initiatives using Litgrid funds.
The greatest focus and financial resources are allocated to the commitment to protect biodiversity when operating, expanding or modernising energy infrastructure.
Based on an analysis of the last 2–3 years of work, we identified the following biodiversity-related costs:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Compensatory measures: producing a nest box costs EUR 40–95 per unit, depending on the manufacturer and type. Costs are also incurred for installing and maintaining nest boxes; however, these are not separately broken down in overhead line maintenance work orders.
Environmental monitoring: the cost of one ongoing monitoring activity is currently up to EUR 10,000 per year when monitoring only bird fatalities and nest box occupancy. For the coming year, three environmental monitoring procurements of different scopes are planned, based on monitoring programmes agreed with the Environmental Protection Agency and specified requirements. Based on market consultation data, a single environmental monitoring activity may cost up to EUR 100,000. The Environmental Protection Agency has additionally required observer efficiency assessments and predator activity assessment studies, which will further increase costs.
Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA): EIA screening costs about EUR 14,000 and preparing an EIA report costs about EUR 50,000.
Installing visibility-enhancing devices on overhead lines: depending on whether the line runs over land or over water, installation complexity and unit pricing vary significantly. Marking a single span may cost around EUR 40,000, depending on the number of diverters/pendants and spirals.
Part of the budget is allocated to employee training (group online and smaller in-person sessions) needed to strengthen employee understanding of environmental topics.
We also invest in innovation—seeking better technical solutions for environmental protection and conducting studies or research.
25.5.
E4-4 Targets related to biodiversity and ecosystems
We have set a strategic objective to achieve no net biodiversity loss. At this stage, we have not established quantitative targets; these may be defined following future EIAs, monitoring results, or the Group-level biodiversity analysis planned for 2026.
We monitor and manage the environmental impacts of our activities (including biodiversity) in line with an environmental management system compliant with ISO 14001:2015. The ISO 14001 certification scope covers transmission system operator activities, balancing of the electricity power system, and the maintenance and development of the transmission network; the certificate is valid from 31 August 2023 to 30 August 2026. This system ensures compliance with legal requirements, pollution prevention, reduction of pollution and adverse environmental impacts, and continuous improvement. It also allows us to monitor and control the environmental impact of our activities.
Existing commitments, as well as actions and measures, cover the entire Lithuanian territory where the highvoltage electricity grid extends, with specific measures targeted at locations where they are most relevant (e.g., areas of intensive bird migration).
Monitoring results from 2025 along the Jurbarkas–Bitėnai overhead line indicate no significant negative impact on birds. Only two dead birds were found beneath the lines—one under a marked section and one under an unmarked section. Ornithologists concluded that the collisions likely occurred at night, meaning the presence of visibility markers probably had little influence in these cases.

E4-5 Impact metrics related to biodiversity and ecosystems change
Due to the nationwide extent of the transmission network, we cannot precisely quantify the total land area affected by operations. Land beneath the transmission lines is not owned by Litgrid – landowners use the land in accordance with its designated purpose, while special land-use conditions apply within the protection zones.
No substations are in protected areas, and their operations do not have negative biodiversity impacts.
Our activities do not directly contribute to land-use change drivers related to freshwater or marine resource use; therefore, we do not disclose related indicators.

E5 CIRCULAR ECONOMY
26.1.
SBM-3 - Material impacts, risks, opportunities and their interaction with the strategy and business model
As part of Litgrid’s double materiality assessment for the topic “Circular economy”, we identified material negative environmental impacts and one material risk. We summarise the impacts and the risk in the table below.
Compared to the previous reporting period, the identified material subtopics remain unchanged. However, we refined the wording of the impacts and identified a material risk related to fluctuations in raw-material prices.
Material impacts, risks and opportunities in the topic “Circular economy”
Sustainability matter
Impacts, risks and opportunities
Resource inflows, including resource use
Actual negative impact arising from the large amount of equipment required for Litgrid’s activities, as well as the large amount of primary raw materials required for Litgrid’s infrastructure and equipment.
When installing new infrastructure and carrying out reconstructions, we use a substantial amount of equipment, including switchgear, substations, and transmission line components. Manufacturing the equipment and structures we use requires significant amounts of primary raw materials. Heavy and light machinery is also required for construction works. In most cases, we procure finished products—that is, complete equipment and structural components—rather than raw materials. We do not carry out construction works ourselves; instead, we purchase design and contracting services for new construction, reconstruction, and routine maintenance.
Energy transmission infrastructure requires metals and alloys (e.g., steel), which are used in transmission lines, supports, structural fixings, and other components. The extraction and use of primary resources such as iron, manganese, nickel, chromium, and aluminium have negative environmental impacts because these reserves are finite and their extraction is associated with pollution and other adverse environmental changes.
Potential risk: as natural resources become scarcer, raw material prices increase, driving up the costs of equipment, structures and construction works. Increased costs create a risk of not delivering required infrastructure reconstructions on time.
As transmission networks expand, more renewable energy is integrated, and energy generation and storage capacity increases, demand for various metals and raw materials in transmission infrastructure grows. The continuity of our operations depends on the availability of these resources; therefore, shortages or price volatility may increase equipment and infrastructure costs and affect financial results.
Waste
Actual negative impact arising from both the direct generation of waste during our operations and the waste produced across all stages of energy production and transmission.
Waste is generated when constructing new infrastructure, reconstructing, or dismantling existing transmission lines, transformer substations, switchgear, and other assets associated with our operations. During routine operational activities, waste volumes are significantly lower compared to reconstruction or replacement projects.
The largest waste streams are associated with equipment replacement, structural and infrastructure dismantling, and/or reconstruction works. The amount of waste directly depends on the scope of reconstruction, maintenance projects, and replaced equipment each year. When reconstructing transformer substations, equipment suitable for reuse is removed and stored for later use, while unusable items are handed over to authorised waste operators.
Waste is generated at all stages of energy production and transmission, including hazardous waste. Waste produced during construction and reconstruction can negatively impact the environment by contaminating soil and water bodies, increasing air pollution, and placing additional burden on waste management infrastructure.
All waste generated during construction and reconstruction is collected and transferred to licensed waste operators authorized to handle the relevant types of waste
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Link to strategy and business model, and how the Company responds
Our strategic objective is to ensure the reliability of the transmission network and enable the integration of renewable energy installations. Infrastructure expansion and modernization are therefore inherent to our business model, and associated resource use and waste generation cannot be entirely avoided. Wherever feasible, we implement measures to improve resource efficiency and reduce waste, as described further in this section.
We assess rawmaterial price volatility and supply risks during investment planning and project design. Technical solutions and contingency reserves are incorporated to mitigate potential supply disruptions. While we do not conduct a separate quantitative resilience analysis for this topic, risks are managed at project level and monitored through annual indicators disclosed in sections E5-4 and E5-5.
26.2.
E5-1 – Policies
We have not adopted a standalone circular economy or resource policy. The identified impacts are intrinsically linked to our strategic direction. Additionally, the nature of our operations does not involve a continuous flow of material resources; resource use and waste generation depend on the scope of reconstruction and maintenance projects undertaken each year.
We follow the EPSOG Group Sustainability Policy and implement processes related to resource and waste reduction accordingly. EPSOG Group companies commit to pollution prevention principles and to minimising waste generated during operations, ensuring its responsible management. More information on the EPSOG Group Sustainability Policy, including disclosures in line with MDRP requirements, is provided in the E1 Climate Change section. The content of EPSOG Group policies and related information is described in section 2 ETAS General Information, under MDRP Adopted Material Sustainability Management Policies.
Although the reduction of primary resource use and the increased use of secondary (recycled) materials are not explicitly formalised in a dedicated policy, relevant operational processes addressing these aspects are implemented in practice.
We regularly verify suppliers’ compliance with environmental requirements. No separate policy exists for this, but more information on supplier management is disclosed in section G12.
26.3.
E52 – Actions and resources related to resource use and circular economy
We implement measures to improve resource efficiency, promote reuse and extend equipment service life.
During the reporting period, we continued the following actions:
Regeneration of insulating oil and SF₆ gas:
priority is given to on-site regeneration. If regeneration does not meet the required technical parameters, oil or gas are sent for proper waste management, and the equipment is refilled with new oil or gas;
when dismantling transformers, suitable insulating oil is stored for later reuse (provided quality parameters are met).
Extending steel tower service life:
we apply requirements for increased zinc coating thickness on steel towers, extending their service life by up to 1.5 times.
Reuse of equipment: during reconstruction, serviceable equipment is transferred to reserve stock and reused when needed.
We do not have a separate action plan for this topic, as material flows are project-dependent and not continuous. No dedicated budgets or deadlines have been established.
We mitigate the risk related to rawmaterial price volatility at the design stage through contingency planning (e.g. provision of additional towers).
26.4.
E5-3 – Targets related to resource use and circular economy
We have not established quantitative targets related to resource use, circular economy, or waste reduction. This position remains unchanged, as our operations do not involve manufacturing or a steady material flow; quantities depend on specific infrastructure projects.
Topic management effectiveness is monitored through:
(i)
implemented processes (see E52), and
(ii)
annual operational indicators: consumption of insulating oil (E54) and waste volumes and their treatment routes (E55).
These data are used to assess trends and inform project-level mitigation measures.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
26.5.
E5-4 – Resource inflows
Our operations rely on the following long-term infrastructure assets:
overhead and cable electricity transmission lines (including underground and subsea lines);
transformer substations;
switchyards;
system control centre.
For infrastructure reconstructions, repairs and new construction, we use various materials and equipment. Works are predominantly performed by contractors, who procure materials (with certain exceptions). We typically procure completed infrastructure works rather than raw materials.
The main materials used include concrete, steel, aluminium, copper and their alloys, glass, as well as high-voltage electrical equipment containing metals, ceramics, insulating oil, and SF₆ gas. Contractors usually purchase finished products—such as reinforced concrete and steel supports, wires, cables, equipment, and other components—rather than raw materials, with some exceptions (e.g., concrete for casting works).
For operational activities, we purchase insulating oil to fill electrical equipment.
Calculation methodology
We determine quantities of insulating oil based on actual measurements (weighing). We treat as “consumption” the oil used to fill our equipment (transformers). If the oil parameters meet requirements, we return it to the storage for reuse. Currently, the returned amount is not separately accounted for.

Note. We also used diesel to fill emergency generators. However, generators are intended only for emergency situations — they are switched on only periodically and for short periods, exclusively for preventive purposes to ensure proper operation.
Oil consumption depends on how many new autotransformers need to be filled each year or whether oil needs to be replaced in existing ones. Therefore, annual oil consumption cannot be used to identify and assess a trend; the annual amount consumed reflects the actual oil need in that year.

We do not directly procure most construction materials; therefore, comprehensive weight data are not available. Quantities disclosed relate only to directly procured or contractor-reported materials and are not fully representative of total material use.
26.6.
E5-5 – Resource outflows
The largest waste streams arise from infrastructure reconstruction and dismantling of existing transmission lines, transformer substations, switchyards, and related facilities. Construction and demolition waste account for more than 90% of total waste, primarily consisting of concrete and various metals, including metal structures, equipment, and cables. Waste contains metals such as steel, iron, aluminium, copper, and metal alloys, as well as oil-containing components.
The largest share of hazardous waste consists of insulating oil and hazardous components removed from decommissioned equipment.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Most waste consists of metals, which are almost 100% recycled. Concrete and insulating oil are also sent for recycling. Waste treatment information is obtained from waste operators and/or collectors. We collect data based on waste transfer notes and other documents.
Concrete waste generated during construction or reconstruction is managed by contractors and is therefore not included in our accounting.
Waste volumes may fluctuate between years, depending on project scope each year. As our activities do not follow a linear production model (“raw materials products waste”), year-to-year comparisons may not reflect structural trends. We do not manufacture or release any products or packaging to the market.
We record hazardous and nonhazardous waste in the Unified Product, Packaging and Waste Accounting Information System (GPAIS). We determine treatment methods based on information provided by waste operators and/or collectors.
Overall, the total waste generated by our operations has remained relatively stable over the years.

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Note. The increase in disposed waste in 2024 is linked to the waste operator’s updated methods for handling accepted waste. Landfilled waste in 2025 was lower than in 2024 because in 2025 the waste operator redirected the nonrecyclable fraction of waste codes 16 02 15* and 16 02 16 from landfill to disposal with energy recovery.
Comparing 2024 and 2025, different amounts of waste were generated, with some portion being nonrecyclable; however, the share of such waste in total waste remained very similar.

S1 OWN WORKFORCE
27.1.
SBM-3 – Material impacts, risks, opportunities, and their interaction with strategy and the business model
As part of Litgrid’s double materiality assessment (DMA) for the topic “Own workforce”, we identified material impacts on our employees. No material risks or opportunities were identified. The material impacts identified are described in more detail in the table below.
Compared to the previous reporting period, we identified two additional material sub-topics: “Gender equality and equal pay for work of equal value” and “Diversity”. The subtopic — “Privacy” — following the update of the DMA, is no longer considered material; however, it remains relevant and is managed (we disclose information on data security more extensively under S4 “Consumers and endusers”).
Material impacts – “Own workforce”
Sustainability topic
Impacts
Working time. Work‑life balance
An actual negative impact arises from increasing workload, new high‑priority projects and important strategic objectives that require strong employee engagement. This may affect employee job satisfaction.
This impact is most strongly felt by employees working in infrastructure and engineering, particularly due to shift work, rotating schedules, on-call duties from home, and high workloads.
Adequate wages
An actual positive impact arises from the existing collective agreement and representation of employees’ interests through the trade union. Open communication with employees is also important: managers share information about changes in the Company and provide opportunities for employees to share views, suggestions or complaints during general meetings. Employee engagement and representation have a material impact on well‑being and improvements in working conditions.
Social dialogue. Freedom of association, the existence of works councils, and the information, consultation and participation rights of workers. Collective bargaining, including the rate of workers covered by collective agreements
An actual positive impact arises from the existing collective agreement and representation of employees’ interests through the trade union. Open communication with employees is also important: managers share information about changes in the Company and provide opportunities for employees to share views, suggestions or complaints during general meetings. Employee engagement and representation have a material impact on well‑being and improvements in working conditions.
Health and safety
A potential negative impact may arise for employee health and safety due to specific working conditions, especially for employees working on-site (higher risk of injuries that could lead to more severe health impacts).
Within the Company, we distinguish two occupational health and safety groups: administrative employees and employees working on-site (including contractors).
Training and skills development
An actual positive impact arises from access to internal and external skills development programmes (including soft skills) and continuous improvement programmes available to all employees. This contributes to developing employee competencies and supports professional and personal development.
Gender equality and equal pay for work of equal value

Diversity
An actual negative impact manifests through a clear gender imbalance, and, in certain professions, gender pay differences when working in the same role.
Gender imbalance is observed in top management positions, leading to unequal distribution of opportunities between men and women and lower female representation.
While pay within the same job family does not differ, the overall pay gap arises because women are less frequently employed in higher‑pay functions (engineering and IT).
Employment and inclusion of persons with disabilities
An actual negative impact arises from limited inclusion of people with disabilities and the absence of a clear plan to increase inclusion within the Company.
This increases the risk of discrimination, deepens economic and social inequality, reduces access to employment opportunities, may weaken Company culture and contribute to negative societal trend.
The negative and positive impacts identified during the DMA arise directly in relation to our employees.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
About the own workforce
The Company employs only individuals under employment contracts (we do not use selfemployed persons or workers provided by thirdparty employment agencies). Therefore , no non-employee workers fall within the scope of our own workforce.
We include within the scope of disclosures under ESRS 2 all persons classified as own workforce to whom we may have a material impact. We identified groups of employees who may face a higher risk of adverse impacts: employees working at operational sites, employees working shifts, on-call employees, women (due to their lower representation in top management positions), and employees with disabilities.
We did not identify a material impact on employees arising from transition plans aimed at reducing environmental impacts and ensuring greener, climateneutral operations.
Link to strategy and business model, and how the Company responds
All identified impacts are directly linked to our operating (business) model and sector characteristics.
Key highlights on how we respond to some of these impacts (for more details see S14 Actions taken to address material impacts on the own workforce, manage material risks and take advantage of material opportunities, and the effectiveness of those actions):
Training and development aligned with strategy, values, performance appraisal, the competency model, shift planning, and the assessment of professional and technical qualifications.
Working time and overtime management is a priority area — we continuously monitor work schedules, assess the reasons for overtime and, where needed, review work organisation. We tolerate only limitedduration overtime resulting from objective circumstances.
Implementation and certification of an Occupational Health and Safety Management System in accordance with ISO 45001.
We pay particular attention to employing people with disabilities — we clearly communicate our Equal Opportunities policy in job advertisements and participate in trainings on employing people with disabilities.
We foster the equal opportunities topic in a systematic manner; remuneration is set based on a genderneutral principle. For four years, we have carried out voluntary activities under the “Equality Embassy” initiative.
27.2.
S1-1 – Policies
Management of employee-related sustainability topics is based on EPSOG Group and the Company-level documents and procedures. These policies apply to all employees. More detailed information about these policies and related measures is provided in Section 2 ESRS General Information of the report, under “MDR-P Adopted Policy for Managing Significant Sustainability Issues”.
Policies related to the own workforce
Sustainability topic
Description and the policy
Working time / Work‑life balance
The EPSO‑G Group complies with the provisions of the Labour Code of the Republic of Lithuania, which sets general working hour norms, rest and working time arrangements, and employee guarantees, including the possibility of flexible and remote work.
Across EPSO‑G Group companies, employees are offered flexible work hours and hybrid work options (where the specific position allows), and companies have established internal remote work policies. This enables employees to achieve better work‑life balance, work according to flexible schedules convenient for them, and increase internal motivation. The hybrid model and remote work possibilities are also a strong advantage for candidates, allowing the Group to attract candidates from across Lithuania and, in the future, abroad. This strengthens EPSO-G’s recognition, reputation, and competitiveness in the labor market, enabling the company to attract and retain employees at lower costs.
EPSO‑G Group Equal Opportunities Policy – defines measures to adapt working conditions and match individual needs to work processes.
EPSO‑G Group Renumeration, Performance Management and Development Policy – includes performance appraisal and development opportunities and supports flexibility in working conditions to ensure work‑life balance.
At Litgrid level, the Procedure for the Prevention of Discrimination, Violence and/or Harassment and Sexual Harassment provides protection from discrimination due to family responsibilities and promotes favourable conditions for balancing work and personal life.
Litgrid’s Internal Rules of Procedure define standard working hours, flexible start/end options, internal rules and agreements, and employee and employer obligations.
Litgrid’s Remote Work Procedure sets out how remote work is granted and organised, employee rights and obligations (including information and cyber security requirements), and other remote‑work related issues.
Training and skills development
EPSO‑G companies implement a unified Renumeration, Performance Management and Development Policy, establishing principles for employee development, skills enhancement, and continuous learning:
1. Alignment principle – learning and development are linked to the EPSO-G group strategy, the specific company’s strategy, values, performance evaluation, competency model, shift planning, and assessment of professional and technical qualifications.
2. Personal accountability principle – employees are responsible for their own learning outcomes, while the employer provides opportunities and conditions for development and growth.
3. 70-20-10 principle – 70% of learning and development comes from on-the-job experience, 20% from interactions, collaboration, and knowledge-sharing with colleagues and managers with diverse expertise, and 10% from structured training, often including external training programs.
Equality and diversity
The EPSO‑G Group Equal Opportunities Policy ensures equal opportunities for all employees. It covers non‑discrimination on grounds such as racial/ethnic origin, skin colour, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, age, religion, political views, nationality or social origin, and other forms of discrimination addressed by EU and national legislation.
EPSO‑G companies also apply a Diversity and Inclusion Strategy, which sets objectives and measures to promote an inclusive environment for all employees, strengthening tolerance, inclusion and equal opportunities across the Group.
Employment and inclusion of persons with disabilities
Disability employment and inclusion are addressed in the following EPSO-G Group documents:
EPSO‑G Group Equal Opportunities Policy — principles to ensure equal opportunities regardless of disability or other personal characteristics.
EPSO‑G Diversity and Inclusion Strategy — objectives and measures promoting an inclusive environment for all employees.
Litgrid’s Procedure for the Prevention of Discrimination, Violence and/or Harassment and Sexual Harassment — measures ensuring a respectful and safe working environment for all employees.
Adequate wages
All employees of EPSO‑G group companies are paid above the statutory minimum wage, and companies comply with the Labour Code of the Republic of Lithuania.
From December 2025, a new Renumeration, Performance Management and Development Policy entered into force. It defines remuneration principles, incentive measures and performance appraisal processes based on responsibility, transparency and accountability, including clear pay ranges by job level, grounded in market median data.
The policy aims to ensure efficient payroll cost management and create a motivating system where remuneration is linked to achievement of company and individual annual objectives, work quality and value‑based behaviours; remuneration is transparent and performance‑based, grounded in competence assessment and individual goals.
This policy is approved or amended by the EPSO‑G Board, following recommendations from the EPSO‑G Remuneration and Nomination Committee.
Health and safety
EPSO‑G has a Group‑wide Occupational Health and Safety Policy aimed at ensuring safe and healthy working conditions, preventing work‑related injuries and occupational diseases, and building a culture where every employee contributes to a safe and healthy work environment.
We have implemented an Occupational Health and Safety Management System certified to ISO 45001.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Respect for human rights
In our operations, we follow international human rights standards, including the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, the UN Global Compact, and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises. These principles are integrated in internal documents and applied in daily operations to ensure respect, tolerance and an ethical working environment.
We adhere to the highest ethical conduct standards and commit to safeguarding the rights and freedoms of all employees. In line with the EPSOG Group Code of Ethics, we promote fair and transparent communication based on facts and respect for each person.
We commit to:
ensuring employee dignity, privacy and respectful conduct at work;
acting socially responsibly and respecting human rights;
avoiding any form of discrimination based on ethnic origin, gender, sexual orientation, marital or social status, religious or political beliefs, citizenship, disability, age, trade union membership, or any other characteristics unrelated to work;
and applying the highest reliability, integrity and transparency standards even when regulation is not clearly defined.
We prohibit discrimination in any form and do not tolerate psychological violence, bullying or abuse of position. Companies within the EPSO-G group respect and protect the rights of every employee, act with respect and fairness, provide safe working conditions that meet employees’ needs, promote employees’ personal and professional development, and do not discriminate against employees.
We ensure easy access to all employee rights-related documents through the document management system and the intranet.
We comply with legal requirements prohibiting human trafficking, child labour, forced or compulsory labour. As our core operations are in Lithuania, the risk of these impacts is very low.
We integrate human rights principles into supply chain management; suppliers must comply with occupational safety, forced labour prevention and child labour prohibition requirements. These principles are set out in the EPSOG Group Partners’ Code of Ethics.
We provide more detailed information about the mechanisms in place within the Company through which employees can raise concerns on this topic in section S1-3 – Processes for Remediation of Negative Impacts and Channels for Own Workforce to Raise Concerns.
Employee engagement and equal opportunities
The Company applies the EPSO-G Group Code of Ethics, the EPSO-G Group Equal Opportunities Policy, the Litgrid Equal Opportunities Procedure, and the Prevention of Discrimination, Violence and/or Harassment, including Sexual Harassment Procedure. Through these documents, we commit to preventing discrimination, promoting equal opportunities, and fostering diversity and inclusion.
The EPSO-G Diversity and Inclusion Strategy defines our objective of building a workplace culture in which every employee feels respected and valued. The strategy aims to strengthen managers’ competencies in creating an inclusive work environment, increase the participation of underrepresented groups in the labour market, and ensure transparent and objective recruitment processes in line with the EPSO-G Group Recruitment Policy.
We encourage employee participation in inclusion initiatives, organize internal training sessions, share best practices and personal stories, and actively promote a respectful, open and inclusive organisational culture. We seek to ensure that all employees have equal opportunities to participate in work processes and decision-making, regardless of personal characteristics.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Commitments to the inclusion of vulnerable groups
We have undertaken specific commitments to promote the inclusion of vulnerable groups, as set out in the EPSO-G Group Equal Opportunities Policy, the EPSO-G Diversity and Inclusion Strategy, and other related documents.
We aim to create accessible and supportive conditions enabling persons with disabilities to apply for positions, work and develop within the Company.
We provide flexible working arrangements to support employees in balancing professional and family responsibilities.
We promote gender equality, including increased representation of women in leadership positions, as well as the inclusion of older employees and employees of different nationalities. We organise regular training on discrimination prevention, inclusion and the prevention of psychological harassment in the workplace.
We seek to ensure the inclusion of employees working in remote units. For example, we livestream events held at the central office, organise Company events in different regions, and implement practical measures to ensure equal participation and accessibility across locations.
27.3.
S1-2 – Processes for engaging workers and workers’ representatives on impacts
We ensure that employees can actively participate in shaping working conditions, express their needs, and receive feedback.
The People and Culture Unit is responsible for employee engagement in matters related to the Company’s own workforce, including dialogue with employee representatives, coordination of processes, and the integration of results into decision-making.
We systematically involve employees and their representatives (the trade union) in decision-making. We use various forms of engagement, including regular information-sharing, consultations, dialogue, and feedback collection. The results obtained are analysed and, where justified, integrated into decisions aimed at improving working conditions. The main engagement channels are presented below.
Process
Description
Trade union
The trade union operates within the Company, representing employees’ interests and participating in decision-making processes. As of 31 December 2025, 36% of employees were members of the trade union. A collective agreement has been signed with the trade union, establishing mechanisms for information, consultation, and negotiation.
The trade union has the right to initiate discussions on organizational changes, modifications to the remuneration system, social guarantees, or other matters affecting employees’ rights. Employees may submit proposals to the trade union, which then presents them to the Company. This ensures that employees’ views are heard and taken into account in the decision-making process.
The Head of the People and Culture Unit is responsible for communication and cooperation with the trade union representing the Company’s employees and for ensuring that employees’ opinions are considered when shaping the Company’s position.
Collective agreement
The collective agreement stipulates that the employer undertakes to conduct consultations and coordinate decisions with the trade union on the following matters: the draft strategy and annual plan, personnel policy, issues related to the implementation of the collective agreement, and budget allocation.
Annual employee engagement survey and other surveys
An annual engagement survey provides employees with the opportunity to assess the work environment, equal opportunities, communication culture, and their level of empowerment. The survey results are used in decision-making aimed at improving working conditions.
We also organise an annual emotional well-being survey, in which employees can assess their emotional state and express their views on this topic.
Annual performance and development reviews
We conduct an annual emotional well-being survey, where employees can evaluate their well-being and express their views on this topic.
General meeting of employees
Each quarter, we organise an all-employee meeting where employees can raise questions or share their views. In this way, we promote a culture of open dialogue and communication within the Company.
27.4.
S1-3 – Processes for remediation of negative impacts and channels for raising concerns
We have established formal mechanisms to address potential negative impacts on our own workforce and to ensure that employees can raise concerns or report violations.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Employees may report suspected discrimination, human rights violations, unethical behaviour, or other concerns through several available reporting channels.
Key channels
Description
Trust Line
Company employees can report potential cases of discrimination, violence, or human rights violations either anonymously or by disclosing their identity through this reporting line.
Upon receiving a report, a commission is established to conduct an investigation, information is collected, and protective measures are applied if necessary, such as temporary suspension or reassignment to other duties. If a violation is confirmed, corrective actions are implemented, including additional training, educational events, and process reviews to prevent recurrence. To date, no human rights violations have been identified within the Company.
All reports are reviewed, and their validity is assessed by monitoring the number of reports, engagement survey results, and other questionnaires.
In 2025, an anonymous employee survey on tolerance to corruption showed that 96% of participants were aware of this reporting line.
Other channels
Other channels through which employees can directly raise concerns include email, an online reporting form, sending information by post, or contacting responsible persons within the Company directly—such as the Head of the People and Culture Department or their direct manager. Employees can also approach the trade union, which forwards their suggestions and observations to management. In addition, employees can report potential unethical behavior to the Ethics Committee established within the Company.
The Company has adopted the “Litgrid Employee Duty Violation Reporting, Investigation, and Warning Procedure”. Under this procedure, an employee who becomes aware of a potential breach of duties must inform the respective employee’s direct manager in writing or by email. The manager then formally notifies the employer and initiates an internal investigation, providing all relevant information and available evidence.
All reporting channels are accessible to every employee and may be used either anonymously or with identification.
We ensure that employees are informed about the available reporting mechanisms and how they operate. Relevant procedures, including the “Litgrid Prevention of Discrimination, Violence, Harassment and Sexual Harassment Procedure”, clearly describe reporting options and submission methods. All employees have access to internal regulations through the Document Management System. Information on reporting channels is regularly communicated and updated via the intranet, Lean cards, and dedicated intranet pages of responsible departments.
We ensure that the Trust Line and other reporting channels are effective and comply with international human rights standards. All reports are logged and systematically monitored, with feedback collected through employee surveys and annual engagement studies. The effectiveness of report handling is analysed to identify opportunities for improvement.
We have implemented a policy protecting employees from retaliation. The internal procedure for implementing and ensuring the operation of reporting channels guarantees the confidentiality of the reporting employee and provides additional safeguards. Retaliation against the reporting employee, their family members, or colleagues is prohibited. If an employee meets the conditions defined in the Whistleblower Protection Act, their report is immediately forwarded to the Prosecutor’s Office of the Republic of Lithuania.
27.5.
S1-4 – Actions
Key actions are implemented on a continuous basis, with particular focus on annual performance reviews, employee engagement and strengthening an inclusive organisational culture.
Diversity, inclusion and equal opportunities
In 2025, we implemented a range of initiatives aimed at strengthening inclusion and equal opportunities:
We organised employee trainings and conducted internal and external communications on relevant topics (e.g., women in engineering, the Group’s accession Diversity Charter, participation in the DUOday initiative and, the Youth Line campaign “Green light for life”, etc.).
We marked internationally recognised equal opportunities days to foster value-based attitudes and awareness.
We organised an equal opportunities month.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Shared neutral and inclusive language guidelines prepared by the Equality Embassy to promote respectful communication when referring to personal characteristics (e.g. age, gender, health status).
Organised a Litgrid team hike to strengthen team cohesion and support emotional well-being, including a practical session on forest therapy.
In 2025, we also paid particular attention to emotional wellbeing, developing the topic through various activities (trainings, articles, a hike, etc.) across three areas: workrest balance, physical activity, attention and mindfulness. In the spring we delivered psychological resilience trainings; in the autumn we organised a practical meditation session on mindfulness in everyday life.
To reduce the risk of discrimination, in 2025 the Group organised a lecture on unconscious bias (separately for employees and for managers).
In 2025, new employees participated in mandatory online training on the prevention of psychological harassment and discrimination. Since 2024, this training has been mandatory for all employees, ensuring a consistent level of awareness across the organisation.
These or similar actions will be continued in the future, depending on team needs. We conduct an annual employee engagement survey and use the results to inform planning. This supports greater employee awareness and commitment to applying equal opportunities principles at work.
Each year we carry out an emotional wellbeing survey and monitor gender balance across different roles. We also encourage employee involvement through a voluntary initiative — the Equality Embassy — which promotes emotional wellbeing, discrimination prevention and inclusion. The Equality Embassy prepares annual plans and actions in the equal opportunities area. The People and Culture Unit coordinates this topic within the Company.
Implemented strategic actions are oriented towards strengthening employee wellbeing and inclusion, including:
Implementation of the EPSO-G Group Diversity and Inclusion Strategy (launched in 2024 and reviewed every three years), aimed at promoting equality and tolerance across all Group companies.
Organisation of Equal Opportunities Month for six consecutive years, with additional training and initiatives throughout the year.
Annual employee engagement surveys conducted in January, with results integrated into activity planning during the first quarter.
The EPSO-G strategy defines specific measures to support vulnerable groups, including adaptation of working conditions for persons with disabilities, promotion of gender equality (with emphasis on women’s leadership), and strengthening inclusion of older employees and employees of different nationalities.
Examples of implemented measures include:
Since 2024, we have started writing job titles in vacancy announcements in the feminine form, adding the masculine form in brackets (e.g., “we are looking for an engineer (female) (male)”), to attract the underrepresented gender in our Company (and we continue this practice).
Every year, we implement numerous initiatives and trainings on equal opportunities, diversity and discrimination prevention.
On external social media, we actively talk about women’s role in engineering and energy and about employing older workers, with the aim of gradually changing established perceptions of energy and engineering professions.
To date, we have not identified any actual cases of material impacts that would require remediation for affected employees (in 2021–2025, we recorded no substantiated discrimination cases at Litgrid). We have effective mechanisms in place that we would apply if such cases arose (we describe these mechanisms in detail in S13 – Processes for remediation of negative impacts and channels through which the own workforce can raise concerns).
We apply a Procedure for the Prevention of Discrimination, Violence and/or Harassment and Sexual Violence, which ensures that reports are examined and resolved without delay, appropriate support is provided, all reports are registered and analysed, and internal processes are improved where necessary. Where needed, we offer psychological support, adjustments to working conditions and other support measures.
Inclusion of persons with disabilities
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
We place particular emphasis on employing people with disabilities:
In job adverts, we clearly communicate our Equal Opportunities policy.
In 2025, we participated in the DUOday initiative (a jobshadowing initiative) organised by the social employment agency SOPA, during which people with disabilities could explore a profession of interest firsthand. We plan to continue participating in this initiative next year.
n 2025, the Group joined the initiative “No Difference. Doors Open for Everyone” led by the Agency for the Protection of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
Training and skills development
In 2024, together with EPSOG, we identified strategic future competencies required to achieve our longterm objectives. In 2025, we began implementing the planned actions, and we will continue competency development going forward.
During the reporting year, we organised various training programmes for all employees, including training aimed at strengthening IT tool usage skills, digitalisation, innovation, legal knowledge and career planning. In addition, we provided specialised training for targeted employee groups, for example in contract management and English language improvement.
In 2025, we implemented general and leadership competency development programmes to support employees’ professional growth.
These programmes will continue in 2026 to further strengthen future-ready and leadership capabilities.
Working time and worklife balance
Where operationally appropriate, certain units have implemented passive on-call work from home arrangements. This provides flexibility, reduces the need for on-site overtime and supports workload balance while maintaining operational continuity.
We continuously improve operational efficiency through Lean methodology and systematic process reviews.
Since spring 2025, we have implemented a project that allows us to measure process efficiency and identify areas for improving work organisation.
In 2026, we plan to continue reviews of work organisation practices and processes, expand efficiency measurement tools and continue applying the passive oncall model where it supports effective worklife balance.
For employees working in system operations, we apply summarised working time accounting with shifts organised according to pre-agreed schedules. Shift exchanges are permitted where a suitably qualified colleague agrees to cover the shift.
We tolerate overtime only when it is timelimited and driven by objective circumstances. Longterm business model changes in this area are challenging, so we apply shortterm mitigation measures. Where necessary, additional headcount is allocated.
Health and safety
We regularly conduct occupational risk assessments and implement preventive measures in response to identified risks and recorded incidents. All hazardous events are logged and analysed, and recommendations are provided to responsible managers. Internal and external audits are conducted to strengthen accident prevention.
Since 2024, we have been using an integrated Employee Health and Safety Information System, covering all safety measures and their management. Employees are instructed on operational procedures for plant equipment. In 2025, we updated the Employee Safety and Health Instruction, Training, and Certification Procedure. All safety instructions are administered through the DARSIS information system.
We continuously assess occupational risks and provide employees with personal protective equipment. All employees are required to report incidents in accordance with established procedures. After investigating incidents, preventive measures are implemented.
Only persons aged 18 or over may work on live electrical installations; younger employees are not employed for such work. Before employees are authorised to carry out work on live installations, we verify their knowledge, and their qualifications are upgraded periodically according to the nature of the work – from 20 to 24 hours over a five-year period.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
All employees undergo periodic health checks, are provided with additional health insurance, and vaccination programmes are organised where relevant.
Strategic plans
In 2026, across the Group we plan to:
strengthen inclusive communication and cooperation practices;
update Equal Opportunities and Recruitment policies and related procedures;
prepare for implementation of the Pay Transparency Directive by integrating them into our processes;
define remuneration monitoring methods and target levels with a gender equality perspective;
strengthen safe reporting principles and culture related to discrimination;
review the additional benefits package to better reflect diverse employee needs;
prepare to implement a mentoring programme;
monitor gender balance in managerial succession planning and provide additional training on inclusion and non-discrimination.
We will continue to expand employee well-being programmes, including additional health and psychological support initiatives. We will also further improve our communication tools – the intranet and website – to ensure that all employees have clear information about objectives and the progress of ongoing activities.
We aim to continuously learn from results and improve processes to further strengthen our positive impacts on employees.
Effectiveness of actions
We assess effectiveness based on analysis of employee engagement surveys, other surveys and reports. The results show that our initiatives are effective, and we identify improvement opportunities based on employee feedback and data. In the 2025 engagement survey, we included questions about diversity and inclusion and received encouraging results: 93% stated that colleagues are treated respectfully (2024: 90%); 87% agreed that we support balancing work and personal life (2024: 78%); 94% indicated they know how to act when observing potential anticorruption issues, discrimination or other inappropriate behaviour (2024: 93%); 84% agreed that diversity and inclusion are ensured (2024: 83%); 88% rated psychological safety positively (2024: 87%); 88% felt comfortable expressing opinions and ideas regardless of gender, age or other personal characteristics (2024: 86%).
In 2023–2025, we recorded no substantiated discrimination cases. This indicates effective prevention and implementation of our policies.
Resources to manage material impacts
To manage material impacts on our own workforce, we allocate both financial and internal resources. Our People and Culture unit plays the central role in ensuring equal opportunities, psychological safety and training coordination. An annual budget is approved to support employee well-being, including health insurance, allowances, training budgets and salary review measures.
Costs and investments related to S1 are included in the annual budget and are reflected in the financial statements and related notes.

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Note. *The employee engagement index is calculated using the “Engaged Performance Survey” ©.
We apply these targets across our entire operations and to all employees. We assess implementation progress based on the defined indicators presented in Litgrid’s employee statistical indicators monitoring report.
Employee involvement in target-setting
We encourage employees to actively participate in setting objectives and addressing important issues in order to ensure open dialogue and transparent decision-making:
Annual and semi-annual performance meetings enable employees to discuss goals and raise relevant issues with managers.
The trade union organises meetings with members and communicates proposals to Company management.
The voluntary employee initiative “Equality Ambassadors” contributes to inclusion-related objectives and implementation.
Performance monitoring
We present progress on the Company’s targets during quarterly employee meetings, where top management shares operational and performance results. We monitor the implementation of objectives based on established key performance indicators (KPIs).
We ensure that the processes for setting, monitoring, and continuously improving objectives are systematic, based on reliable and verifiable metrics, and closely linked to the engagement of employees and their representatives.

S1-6 – Characteristics of our employees
From 2023 to 2025, the number of employees at Litgrid steadily increased. The main reason for this growth was the expanding scope of assigned functions and responsibilities, arising both from national and international regulatory requirements and from the specific nature of our operations. This includes preparation for operation in synchronous mode with the Continental European networks, the rapidly growing renewable energy sources (RES) sector, and other challenges related to this field.

2024 m. In the Financial Statements section of the Management Report, under the chapter General Information.
2023 m. In the Financial Statements section of the Annual Report, on page 100.
We account for all employee data based on records from our HR and payroll system. The number of employees is determined at the end of the reporting year. We disclose employee numbers on a headcount basis, irrespective of full-time equivalent (FTE). The total headcount includes employees on maternity, paternity, parental or care leave, those performing military or alternative national defence service, as well as interns with employment contract. Interns without employment contracts are not included in the calculation. An “employee” is a person employed under an employment contract to perform tasks for remuneration under the employer’s direction.
All quantitative indicators presented in this and subsequent sections are calculated based on our HR and payroll system data and other internal systems (e.g., DARSIS). No external validation of indicator metrics by an institution that is not an assurance services provider was carried out.
We predominantly use permanent contracts. Fixed-term contracts are applied only where necessary (e.g. parental leave replacement or specific projects) and are not determined by gender or age. We do not discriminate when determining contract type based on gender, age or other personal characteristics; it depends on mutual agreement and needs. In 2025, the number of fixedterm contracts remained low.

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
In 2023, we recorded a higher employee turnover rate, as during that period we experienced significant growth, hired a considerable number of employees, and saw a relatively high number of voluntary departures compared to other years. Meanwhile, in 2024 and 2025, the turnover rate returned to around 9%, as the number of departures decreased.

S1-9 – Diversity metrics
During the period 2023–2025, the gender distribution at the top management level remained unchanged. During recruitment for these positions, we face a limited number of female candidates who meet the specific competence and experience requirements (the sector is male dominated). We consistently implement initiatives aimed at improving gender balance, which is reflected in the gender distribution at other employee levels. However, at the top management level, the impact of these measures has not yet been observed.

Note. We use the definition of top management as the Company CEO and a structural unit head directly reporting to the CEO who manages several structural units and/or coordinates several functions, and whose management level is approved by a decision of the Board (if no Board is established – by a decision of the CEO). A top-level manager may have subordinate structural units of different levels and/or employees with different levels of managerial responsibility reporting to them.
In 2023–2025, the age distribution remained similar: more than 60% of employees were in the 30–50 age group.

We pay adequate wages to all our salaried employees, in line with applicable benchmarks. Considering legislation and market indicators, the adequate wage in the Republic of Lithuania in 2025 was EUR 1,038 per month gross (minimum monthly wage, MMA).
27.11.
S1-11 – Social protection
We provide social protection for all our employees against loss of income due to the following major life events:
illness;
unemployment;
accidents at work and acquired disability;
parental leave;
retirement.
Social protection is ensured in accordance with the applicable legislation of the Republic of Lithuania and additional benefits provided by the Company.
Under our collective agreement, in cases of retirement, we pay employees benefits exceeding those established by the Labour Code, depending on the length of service.
In addition, we provide one-off financial support to employees in the event of the birth or adoption of a child, as well as to those caring for or raising three or more children. We grant various benefits depending on family circumstances, as well as one-off payments in cases of emergency or hardship.

During the period 2023–2025, the proportion of employees with disabilities in the Company remained stable, corresponded to approximately 1–2 employees. It should be noted that the actual number of employees with disabilities may be higher; however, not all employees choose to provide supporting documentation.
Calculation method: we calculate the proportion of employees with disabilities by dividing the number of employees with disabilities employed by the Company at the end of the reporting year by total headcount at the end of the reporting year. We include only those employees who have voluntarily provided the relevant information.

Note. In exceptional and nonstandard cases, annual targets were not set for some employees (e.g., employees on parental leave throughout the year) or employees left before targets could be set; therefore, in some cases the percentage does not reach 100%.
We calculate the percentage of employees who participated in regular performance and career development reviews by dividing the number of salaried employees who participated in performance appraisal during the reporting period by total salaried headcount at the end of the reporting year.
As men constitute a larger share of the Company’s workforce, they participate in training more frequently and therefore account for a higher number of training hours. This situation is also influenced by mandatory training requirements applicable to positions predominantly held by men. In 2025, such training accounted for 39% of all training delivered within the Company.

The average number of training hours per employee is calculated by dividing the total actual training hours of all employed staff during the reporting period by the total number of employees at the end of the period. Actual training hours include only the hours that employees spent in training during the reporting period and exclude hours spent viewing of training recordings or attending remote trainings delivered to the whole Company or Group.
27.14.
S1-14 – Health and safety metrics
Our health and safety management system, based on legal requirements and recognised standards, applies to all employees.
During 2023–2025, there were no fatalities resulting from workrelated injuries or workrelated ill health (including other persons working at the Company’s sites, such as value chain workers).
Over the same period, we recorded no workrelated accidents involving our employees (i.e., the recordable accident rate was zero) and no cases of occupational ill health. Accordingly, there were no lost workdays due to workrelated injuries, accidents or workrelated ill health.
Work-related accidents (if they occur) are recorded in our occupational safety and health programme “DARSIS”.
27.15.
S1-15 – Work-life balance metrics
In accordance with the social policy, all employees are entitled to family-related leave. The usage has been steadily increasing, which is associated with the growing number of employees in the Company (with men constituting a larger share than women).

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Since 2023, following implementation of the EU directive on worklife balance for parents and carers, Lithuania introduced a new form of familyrelated absence in the Labour Code: two months of uninterrupted leave for childcare. This measure aims to encourage greater involvement of fathers in childcare during the first year of a child’s life. We monitor the use of this leave by both men and women. The higher number of cases in the men’s group is explained by men representing a larger share of our workforce. However, when assessing the duration of leave, it remains significantly longer for women.
We calculate the percentage of employees taking familyrelated leave (in total and by gender) by dividing the number of employees (in total and by gender) who took familyrelated leave during the reporting period by headcount by gender at the end of the reporting period. If the same employee took several different types of familyrelated leave during the reporting period, we count them as one employee who took familyrelated leave.
27.16.
S1-16 – Remuneration metrics (pay gap and total remuneration)
Due to historically established circumstances in the energy engineering sector, men predominate and often possess greater professional experience and competencies, which influence salary levels. Men also occupy a larger share of managerial positions, affecting the gender differences in average remuneration. However, when assessing salaries not across the Company as a whole but by specific positions and the value they create, pay differences between genders are minimal. In hiring new employees or reviewing the salaries of existing employees, gender is not a criterion—decisions are made based on the competencies of candidates or employees.

Formula used to calculate the gender pay gap: (Average hourly earnings before tax of male employees − average hourly earnings before tax of female employees) / average hourly earnings before tax of male employees × 100).
When calculating remuneration metrics, we include all monetary and nonmonetary remuneration elements accrued to an employee during the reporting period, including base salary (fixed and/or hourly), overtime pay, night work and work on rest days, holiday pay and compensation for unused holidays, annual financial incentives and oneoff performance bonuses, allowances for additional duties/functions, and other benefits provided to employees.
We exclude sickness benefits and oneoff payments.
Calculations are based on full-time equivalent (FTE) rather than the actual number of employees.
Data are collected from the internal accounting system.
During the period 2023–2025, the ratio between the annual total remuneration of the highestpaid individual and average employee remuneration remained stable. In 2025, we recorded a slight decrease, driven by faster growth in average employee remuneration and a balanced remuneration policy. This indicates consistent management of pay differentials and efforts to ensure proportional remuneration growth across employee groups.

In 2025, we recorded no incidents of discrimination, including harassment.
During the reporting period, we received three reports via our complaints channel (Trust Line) regarding potentially unlawful actions. After verifying the information provided, we concluded that the allegations were unsubstantiated and therefore did not initiate internal investigations. In 2025, we identified no material incidents related to human rights, including forced labour, human

trafficking or child labour. We also did not identify any cases inconsistent with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, or the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.
As no such incidents occurred, we incurred no fines, penalties or compensation related to human rights violations.

SBM-3 – Material impacts, risks, opportunities, and their interaction with strategy and business model
As part of Litgrid’s double materiality assessment, under the topic “Affected Communities,” we identified one material actual negative impact. No significant risks or opportunities were identified. The impact is described in the table below.
Compared to the previous reporting period, the material topic and its associated impact remain unchanged.
Material impacts, risks and opportunities in the topic “Affected communities”
Sustainability topic
Impacts
Communities’ economic, social and cultural rights: land-related impacts, water and sanitation, and security-related impacts
An actual negative impact arises from Litgrid’s activities, during which communities are affected (e.g., land use, noise, vibration, dust, traffic restrictions, etc.).
The impact on local communities results from the installation, upgrading, and maintenance of electricity transmission network infrastructure. Additionally, negative impacts related to noise generated by transformer substations were assessed.
The impact is not systemic at the national or regional level and complies with the legal requirements applicable to this area of activity. However, it affects communities living or working near infrastructure managed by Litgrid. The impact manifests through:
- land use restrictions associated with the operation or expansion of infrastructure;
- noise, vibration, and dust generated during repair, construction, or maintenance works;
- traffic restrictions and increased transportation flows affecting the daily mobility and safety of communities;
- temporary changes to the visual environment, environmental quality or overall quality of life.
About affected communities
We identified impacts on communities living or working near our infrastructure assets, i.e. in areas where grid development or refurbishment projects are being implemented. In carrying out the double materiality assessment, we engaged with selected communities on which we may have a material impact through our operations, as well as through the value chain and business relationships. However, the material impact arises most often from our own operations.
Link to strategy and business model, and how the Company responds
The identified impact stems from the core nature of electricity transmission sector and therefore cannot be entirely avoided. However, it can be appropriately managed and mitigated.
Key management measures include:
informing communities and organising public consultations and meetings in accordance with legal requirements;
assessing the feasibility of installing physical barriers to reduce noise;
conducting continuous and periodic noise measurements near substations.
Other specific actions describing how we manage this impact are provided in section S3-4 – Taking action on material impacts on affected communities, and approaches to managing material risks, pursuing material opportunities related to affected communities, and effectiveness of those actions.
28.2.
S3-1 – Policies
We apply the following policies that help ensure responsible operations and mitigation of impacts on affected communities:
EPSO-G Group Support and Humanitarian Aid Policy – promotes collaboration with communities (and other social groups) in areas where activities or projects are implemented. Special attention is given to initiatives aimed at improving the well-being of communities within company operational areas. Also encourages voluntary and unpaid employee engagement.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
EPSO-G Group Transparency and Communication Policy – aims to strengthen stakeholder awareness, understanding of EPSO-G values, significance, generated benefits, strategic projects and objectives, and the rationale behind decisions, while strengthening community trust in EPSO-G companies. The implementation of this policy is the responsibility of the Litgrid CEO and the Communications Department.
EPSO-G Group Environmental Policy – establishes zero tolerance for environmental pollution and fosters a culture of zero environmental incidents. It provides opportunities for local communities and other stakeholders to participate in environmental impact assessment procedures. Policy implementation is the responsibility of EPSO-G company executives and environmental function curators, who ensure timely identification of environmental aspects, set environmental goals, develop plans, define tasks to improve environmental performance, allocate sufficient resources, monitor results periodically, audit processes, and apply appropriate technologies and work methods.
EPSO-G Group Sustainability Policy – promotes transparent and fair stakeholder collaboration and public engagement in sustainable development initiatives. Implementation is the responsibility of the Operational Architecture unit.
The content of EPSO-G Group policies and related information is described in more detail in Section 2 ESRS General Information, subsection MDR-P – Policy adopted to manage material sustainability matters. Information on policy implementation and updates for communities is shared via the website, social media, and direct stakeholder meetings, ensuring transparency and accessibility to all stakeholders.
In 2025, no cases of non-compliance related to affected communities were identified at Litgrid level or within the upstream or downstream value chain. No non-compliance with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, or the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises was reported.
28.3.
S3-2 – Processes for engaging with affected communities about impacts
We engage affected communities in decision-making processes throughout project lifecycles. Projects are presented to local authorities and community representatives, including mayors and local leaders. Information is shared with local media.
Before works commence, our representatives visit municipal offices to present work plans, timelines, and contact details for reporting any inconveniences. During project execution, contractors inform communities in advance about planned activities and coordinate schedules where feasible.
Engagement takes place at all stages-from initial assessments to implementation of mitigation measures and evaluation of effectiveness. We provide relevant information to institutions and local authorities.
We assess the effectiveness of engagement based on the resolution of identified issues and the absence of recurring concerns. We ensure that engagement tools are designed to be accessible to all members of affected communities.
Planned actions to strengthen community engagement in 2026, as well as the basis for setting future targets, are presented in sections S3-4 and S3-5.
28.4.
S3-3 – Processes to remediate negative impacts and channels for affected communities to raise concerns
We maintain mechanisms to identify, manage, and, when necessary, remediate negative impacts on affected communities. Affected communities can report issues and monitor their resolution. Reports of potential negative impacts can be submitted through the following publicly available channels:
Trust Line: general contacts and email pranesk@epso-g.lt or pranesk@litgrid.eu on Litgrid’s website;
Anonymous reporting system “Ask a Question” on Litgrid’s website;
Direct contact details of responsible project managers provided during project communication.
To ensure the effectiveness and transparency of these channels, we monitor submitted reports and track their resolution. Analysis of reports allows us to assess how quickly and efficiently issues are addressed. We aim to remediate significant negative impacts on affected communities using both technical measures and active dialogue with the community.
Reports can be submitted anonymously. We apply protection against retaliation as disclosed in G11.
28.5.
S3-4 – Taking action
We continuously implement measures to reduce negative impacts on affected communities:
to manage construction noise, we plan and carry out works during daytime only, control construction transport movements, and use technically sound equipment;
when planning infrastructure upgrades, we assess the feasibility of installing physical noise barriers;
where noise exposure is short-term, we inform communities about higher noise levels within a specific time interval;
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
we conduct continuous and periodic noise measurements near substations.
Advance planning of works and the application of restrictions help reduce negative impacts on both the natural environment and nearby residential areas.
We apply stricter standards for managing noise and electromagnetic field (EMF) than legal requirements:
Noise management: for new and reconstructed sites initiated from 2023, permissible night-time noise levels must not exceed 42 dB, i.e., 3 dB below the legal limit.
EMF management: for reconstructed 330 kV overhead transmission line projects initiated from 2023, EMF levels in protection zones are limited to 5 kV/m, and post-reconstruction levels must not exceed pre-reconstruction levels, although legislation does not set such a restriction for overhead line protection zones.
The construction and reconstruction of electricity transmission infrastructure, including overhead lines, may cause negative impacts due to temporary noise and dust; however, all projects are carried out in compliance with legal requirements and within permissible limits.
Where negative impacts on communities occur, we collect and analyse data and information, summarise it, and assess whether the impact creates a risk that should be included in the risk management plan with relevant measures. We have a standardised risk management process. The issue is presented to management, and a decision on actions is made by the Management Board or the head of the responsible department.
Under appropriate conditions—e.g., confirmed exceedances of noise limits—we initiate investment projects to manage and mitigate material impacts. These projects may require material financial resources and can amount to several million euros.
Actions taken in 2025
Action (2025)
Description
Noise reduction
In March 2025, we implemented noise reduction measures at the Alytus transformer substation by installing noise-reducing barriers.
Disconnection of noisy equipment
From February 2025, following synchronisation with the Continental European electricity grids, we disconnected equipment at the high-voltage direct current (HVDC) converter station that constituted one of the most significant noise sources in this energy hub. After implementing solutions, we carried out repeat noise measurements and organised meetings with the community.
Meetings
Dialogue with the community remained a priority in 2025. We organised meetings where residents could express concerns and discuss applied measures.
In total, we held 20 meetings in 2025.
We use a variety of communication formats to be as accessible as possible: once, we participated in a community celebration with an information stand and provided information about the project at a community gathering venue.
Received complaints are most often related to day-to-day activities (e.g., felled or ongoing tree cutting, improperly stored timber, encroachment of plot boundaries, or inadequate site restoration). Meetings are most often organised in relation to planned construction works, and we proactively provide contact details in advance to ensure accessibility in case of inquiries or incidents. The dynamics in the number of complaints also depend on the planned volumes of transmission line corridor clearing and the quality of contractors’ work.
We consider that the actions we have taken help to manage the impact, as the number of recorded complaints is not increasing.
Planned actions to strengthen community engagement in 2026:
In Q1, we will conduct a comprehensive stakeholder analysis: identifying priority communities, the issues most relevant to them, and key contact points, and developing a stakeholder map. This will enable us to better understand expectations, social risk factors, and opportunities for cooperation.
In Q2, we will prepare and approve a Community Engagement Action Plan, establishing a structured and continuous dialogue process.
In Q3, we will launch a pilot initiative with one selected community and develop an engagement measurement mechanism. This mechanism will enable us to assess the implementation and impact of activities, including community satisfaction, level of awareness, conflict prevention, and quality of cooperation.
In Q4, we will evaluate the results of the pilot initiative, update the action plan and allocated budget, and begin developing a long-term package of community engagement initiatives. These initiatives will contribute to building sustainable partnerships, reducing social tensions, and improving the effectiveness of project implementation.

S4 CONSUMERS AND END-USERS
29.1.
SBM-3 – Material impacts, risks, opportunities, and their interaction with strategy and the business model
Through Litgrid’s double materiality assessment, we identified material potential negative impacts on consumers and end-users. No material risks or opportunities were identified. We described the identified material impacts in more detail in the table below.
During this reporting period, the material sub-topic “Privacy” replaced the previously disclosed sub-topic “Access to products and services”. While access to services remains operationally relevant and continues to be managed, it did not exceed the materiality threshold following the updated assessment and is therefore no longer disclosed as material.
Material impacts, risks and opportunities in the topic “Consumers and end-users”
Sustainability topic
Impacts
Access to (high-quality) information
Potential negative impacts may arise if we do not inform consumers in a timely manner about material changes related to the services provided, or if information is not easily accessible to consumers.
Mismanagement in this area may cause inconvenience, mislead stakeholders and disrupt the availability of services. As we operate in a regulated environment, legislation establishes an obligation to provide consumers with relevant information about services and changes. Consumers rely on this information when planning their activities and making decisions related to transmission services.
Privacy
Potential negative impacts on consumers and end-users may arise due to inadequate or improperly applied technical and organisational security measures, and personal data security breaches (including cybersecurity incidents), which may negatively affect the rights of data subjects.
Where technical and organisational security measures are insufficiently implemented, personal data breaches may occur and adversely impact the rights of data subjects. Such impacts may materialise as a result of systemic deficiencies or isolated incidents.
Description of consumers and end-users
Litgrid is the electricity transmission system operator of Lithuania. We provide system services, manage electricity flows and enable the functioning of the electricity market. Therefore, under the S4 topic, we distinguish between:
consumers – recipients of our services (market participants), and
end-users – Lithuanian society and final electricity consumers who benefit indirectly from system reliability and transparent communication.
Consumers (service recipients) are legal entities and market participants that use the transmission system or services related to it:
Transmission grid users: distribution operators; electricity consumers directly connected to the transmission grid; electricity producers connected to the transmission grid; energy storage facilities.
Imbalance and balancing electricity service providers (market participants): electricity generators, storage facilities and suppliers participating in balancing and imbalance mechanisms.
Connection service customers: developers of renewable energy projects, hybrid parks, battery parks and other generation facilities.
End-users are Lithuanian society and final electricity consumers (households and businesses), for whom the reliability of the transmission system and transparent information on system operation, disruptions or changes are important, as these ensure the ability to use electricity in everyday activities.
Link to strategy and business model, and how the Company responds
We are a state-controlled company, therefore a significant share of our operations are subject to regulation.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Our business model encompasses responsibility for information accessibility and its impact on both direct consumers and end-users. To ensure transparency, this aspect is systematically managed through our long-term strategy and compliance with applicable legislation. By adhering to high standards of disclosure, we ensure that the public and stakeholders receive clear, timely and reliable information.
We organise timely information events for consumers, where we present relevant topics related to the electricity transmission grid, its development and efficiency. We also continuously develop and implement services and solutions that meet customer needs.
Across EPSOG Group companies, we implement appropriate technical and organisational measures for personal data security, aimed at minimising both the risk itself and its impacts.
To ensure cybersecurity, we:
implement advanced digital security measures to protect critical transmission grid assets;
implement advanced cybersecurity programmes;
provide continuous training of employees and partners; trainings are organised regularly, and we carry out testing and evaluate results.
Across the Group, we comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable personal data protection legislation. In 2025 we participate in the national cybersecurity exercise “Kibernetinis Skydas” organised by the National Cyber Security Centre and regularly attend other cybersecurity training programmes.
29.2.
S4-1 – Policies
Our operational policies relating to consumers and end-users are publicly available on the website and on the EPSOG website (Operating Policies | EPSOG).
Impacts on consumers and end-users are managed through EPSOG Group policies (including those related to transparency and communication, personal data protection and sensitive information protection, among others). The content of EPSOG Group policies and other related information is described in more detail in the report section 2 ESRS General information, MDRP – Policy adopted to manage material sustainability matters.
Specific policy commitments to manage material impacts under this topic:
Sustainability topic
Description and the policy
Access to (high-quality) information
The Code of Ethics of the EPSO-G group of companies commits us to operate responsibly, transparently and reliably. This entails the timely disclosure of material changes related to the services provided and ensuring that information is easily accessible to consumers. Guided by this principle, we foster open dialogue, respect customers’ time and build trust-based relationships.
Privacy
The Code of Ethics of the EPSO-G group of companies establishes a commitment to ensuring personal data protection and information security through the implementation of appropriate technical and organisational measures. We are committed to investigating and managing incidents related to personal data breaches, notifying competent authorities in accordance with applicable legal requirements, and cooperating exclusively with reliable partners. In safeguarding the rights of data subjects, information is treated as a valuable asset; therefore, the “need-to-know” principle and other security standards are applied.
Information Security Policy of the EPSO-G group ensures information security through a risk-based management framework and the implementation of technical and organisational controls. It provides for personal data protection in accordance with the GDPR, as well as the management of cybersecurity incidents and notification to competent authorities, thereby protecting the rights of data subjects.
The Personal Data Protection Policy of EPSO-G ensures the rights of data subjects by embedding the following principles: lawfulness, purpose limitation, transparency, data minimisation, timely erasure, accuracy and security. Particular emphasis is placed on the confidentiality and security, which requires technical and organisational measures to prevent unlawful processing, loss or cybersecurity incidents.
In managing impacts related to consumers and end-users, we act in accordance with the human rights principles embedded in the EPSO-G Group Code of Ethics and require all employees and persons acting on behalf of the Company to comply with these principles in their daily operations:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
We respect human rights and fundamental freedoms, uphold democratic values recognised in national and international legal frameworks, and adhere to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO).
We maintain zero tolerance for violence, harassment, bullying, mobbing, psychological abuse and any form of discrimination (including on the grounds of age, gender, race, nationality, language, origin, social status, religion, etc.).
We ensure the principles of diversity, inclusion and equal opportunities.
We safeguard the right to personal data protection by ensuring lawful processing and data security.
We ensure respectful engagement with all stakeholders.
We promote the reporting of misconduct and ensure whistleblower confidentiality and protection against retaliation.
At Litgrid, mechanisms are in place to monitor and ensure compliance with these principles, including a whistleblowing system, partner due diligence procedures, training programmes and compliance management processes.
The commitments set out in the Code of Ethics of the EPSO-G group are aligned with:
the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, as reflected in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights;
the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work;
the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, covering compliance with legislation, transparency, anti-corruption provisions and social dialogue.
We are committed to ensuring the reliable and uninterrupted operation of the electricity transmission system, responding promptly to disruptions and implementing projects of national importance, thereby creating long-term value for society and all stakeholders.
Ensuring continuous electricity transmission and rectifying faults as quickly as possible are core operational priorities.
We aim to strengthen our position as a customer-oriented organisation by developing innovative and flexible services that respond to evolving stakeholder needs.
29.3.
S4-2 – Processes for engaging with consumers and end-users about impacts
In most cases, consumers and end-users are represented by public authorities. However, where appropriate, we engage directly with stakeholders to ensure compliance with applicable legislation and alignment with stakeholder expectations.
Engagement takes place at different stages of service provision and project implementation, with the frequency and format determined by legal requirements and stakeholder needs. To ensure high-quality service delivery, we implement standardised customer service solutions and continuously optimise operational processes. These measures support clear, transparent and consistent dialogue with stakeholders. We also conduct market consultations and provide guidance on regulatory requirements where necessary.
The Company’s management is responsible for overseeing consumer and end-user engagement processes.
To assess engagement effectiveness, we conduct annual customer satisfaction surveys. These surveys enable us to evaluate stakeholder perceptions of our activities and identify areas for improvement.
29.4.
S4-3 – Processes to remediate negative impacts and channels to raise concerns
All stakeholders, including consumers and end-users, may submit inquiries, notifications or complaints through anonymous and non-anonymous channels (see section “Reporting Channels and Whistleblower Protection”). Communication and information provision are carried out in accordance with Lithuanian legislation and internal procedures. The helpline operates in Lithuanian and English, and all reports are registered, assessed and handled in line with established procedures, ensuring confidentiality.
Litgrid’s Complaints Handling Procedure governs the registration, review, and resolution of consumer complaints. It covers complaints related to: electricity transmission services; operational reliability of transmission grid infrastructure; electricity metering implementation and management; equipment operation and maintenance; grid user connections and network reconstruction; provision of services in the public interest.
A detailed Complaints Handling Procedure is publicly available on the Litgrid website.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
To strengthen responsiveness, we plan to encourage more frequent feedback from customers at different stages of service provision, in addition to annual surveys, enabling us to address stakeholder needs and concerns in a more timely manner.
29.5.
S4-4 – Taking action
In 2025, we continued to consistently implement measures to mitigate privacy and personal data protection risks.
We maintain an information security management system compliant with the ISO 27001 standard. Operational safeguards include firewalls, antivirus software, data encryption, and data backup procedures. Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel, documents are securely stored, and all employees have signed confidentiality agreements, ensuring ongoing compliance with data protection and privacy requirements.
We have a publicly available (litgrid.eu) procedure for vulnerability disclosure in information systems and we encourage anyone identifying vulnerabilities to report them immediately through the designated form.
To ensure that information security objectives and implemented measures provide protection to the extent necessary to support the goals outlined in the EPSO-G Group Strategy 2035, we have developed an Information Security Action Plan for 2026–2028.
The actions outlined below ensure that both consumers and end-users receive high-quality and reliable electricity transmission services, along with clear information about system operation. Considering the complexity of the services provided and the needs of consumers and end-users, we actively work to ensure smooth information provision, reliable electricity transmission, and effective network maintenance.
Information events: We organise timely informational events for consumers, presenting relevant topics related to electricity transmission system development, efficiency, and services. We continuously refine services and solutions to meet customer needs.
Supply reliability: We implement network modernisation and maintenance measures aimed at improving the reliability of electricity supply. We maintain cooperation with foreign partners, including electricity transmission and biofuel exchange operators, and participate in professional meetings and conferences to present strategic objectives.
Collaboration with authorities: We actively cooperate with state institutions to ensure electricity transmission serves the public interest, including meetings to discuss key issues, providing information to Parliamentary committees and the Government, and participation in inter-institutional working groups.
Information accessibility and quality: We update the website structure and content to make information easier to find and understand for different customer segments and stakeholders.
Improving RES customer experience: We gradually implement self-service portal solutions to reduce time requirements and the likelihood of errors during the RES connection process.
Quality of inquiry and request management: We plan to implement a unified request management system covering both calls and electronic inquiries and begin measuring key service performance indicators.
Standardising customer service: We aim to implement a “one-stop-shop” service model, ensuring consistent, convenient, and high-quality customer experiences.
We respond to potential negative impacts on consumers and end users in accordance with the legal framework of the Republic of Lithuania and the requirements of the National Energy Regulatory Council.
As a fully state-regulated company, we do not engage directly in marketing, sales, or data processing activities that could materially affect end-users.
We respond to complaints, notifications and legal proceedings through continuous operational process improvements. We also organise information events, consultations, and stakeholder meetings, and participate in professional conferences. These activities allow engagement with a wide range of stakeholders — including customers, Group companies, foreign partners, public authorities, employees, and shareholders — supporting the achievement of long-term strategic objectives.
During the reporting period, no material negative impacts requiring remediation were identified, and no substantiated human rights violations or incidents occurred.
Implementation of the action plan did not require significant operating (OpEx) or capital expenditures (CapEx); therefore, detailed financial disclosures are not provided.
Effectiveness assessment
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Through our annual customer satisfaction surveys ee assess the effectiveness of measures aimed at ensuring timely customer information, clear and transparent communication, and increased satisfaction with our operations and services. In addition, we monitor external communication metrics to assess information accessibility for a broader audience.
Communication and information accessibility (2025)
To ensure that consumers and other stakeholders receive timely, clear, and reliable information about our activities, in 2025 we conducted consistent external communications regarding the operation of the transmission system, infrastructure development projects, safe behaviour near high-voltage overhead lines, and other relevant topics. The reach and visibility of communications were evaluated using media monitoring data, including the volume of mentions, their dynamics throughout the year, audience reach, and a communication effectiveness indicator.
In 2025, 2,203 mentions of Litgrid were recorded in the media. Mention dynamics fluctuated throughout the year, with the highest activity in February and the lowest in June. Top publications (based on audience reach) were predominantly related to the synchronisation with the Continental European electricity grids that took place on 9 February.
To assess communication effectiveness, we applied an indicator reflecting the likelihood that the audience noticed and remembered media mentions. In 2025, Litgrid’s communication effectiveness indicator was 35.72%, and the volume of effectively reached contacts (audience impressions) exceeded 220 million. Monitoring these indicators enables us to evaluate the effectiveness of communication measures and, where necessary, adjust communication priorities and channels so that consumers and other stakeholders receive highquality information in a timely manner.
Within EPSOG Group companies, the following key indicators are measured through these surveys:
GCSI (Global Customer Satisfaction Index): 2025 – 81 (consistent with 2024; 2023 – 73). The target GCSI level is at least 80; this is one of the key performance indicators (KPI).
NPS (Net Promoter Score): increased significantly from 22 in 2024 to 35 in 2025. These indicators allow us to monitor the dynamics and trends of implemented initiatives over time.
In addition to overall satisfaction levels, the annual surveys analyse specific operational aspects that vary depending on annual priorities. In 2025, we assessed the following criteria: quality of cooperation, service accessibility, proactiveness of communication, employee competence, speed of decision-making, clarity of decisions and flexibility.
29.6.
S4-5 Targets
One of our key strategic objectives is to enhance customer orientation in order to build an organisation that is focused on the needs of consumers.
We have set targets for enabling renewable energy (RES), which are directly linked to customer orientation: processes related to RES connections are being updated, with the aim of improving customer satisfaction and increasing the number of connected RES power plants.
We consistently monitor the effectiveness of our policies and actions and actively implement insights derived from customer satisfaction surveys, direct feedback, and received proposals or complaints. This ensures that we address the expectations of market participants, customers, and end users in a structured manner. Our risk management system allows us to track relevant performance indicators and develop action plans based on identified needs.
Target
Progress
Ensure high annual customer satisfaction (GCSI ≥ 80) *
GCSI = 81 (exceeded the target; 2024 – 81; 2023 – 73)
By 2035, ensure that ≥ 95% of services are delivered within the established deadlines
Not measured in 2025 (data were not collected in a centralised manner)
By 2027, implement "one‑stop‑shop" customer service
Preparatory work carried out in 2025
Note. *According to the definition applied in Lithuania, GCSI is based on the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI)—a national US standard used to assess service quality in both the business and public sectors. The GCSI target is set by EPSOG for all Group companies.

G1 BUSINESS CONDUCT
30.1.
SBM-3 – Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model
As part of the double materiality assessment conducted under the topic “Business conduct”, we identified material impacts on stakeholders. No material risks or opportunities were identified. We summarise the material impacts, their nature and location within the value chain in the table below.
Compared to the previous reporting period, the material sub-topics remain unchanged. However, we refined the wording of certain impacts and, in some cases, their position within the value chain. In the previous reporting period, we had identified an opportunity under the sub-topic “Protection of whistle-blowers”; following the updated DMA, this aspect is no longer assessed as material.
Material impacts, risks and opportunities in the topic “Business conduct”
Sustainability topic
Impacts
Corporate culture
Potential negative impacts may arise if the principles of our culture and policies—including transparency, accountability, diversity, inclusion and ethical conduct—are not complied with.
There is a risk that, in rare cases, employees may fail to adhere to corporate culture principles and behavioural standards. This could negatively affect both employees and other stakeholders across the value chain.
Protection of whistle-blowers
Potential negative impacts on stakeholders’ rights may arise if the whistle-blower protection system does not function effectively.
If the system were ineffective, risks could include breaches of confidentiality, discrimination, retaliation or other adverse conduct towards stakeholders. Such situations would reduce employees’ trust in reporting processes, discourage reporting of misconduct and allow unethical behaviour to persist within the organisation.
Management of relationships with suppliers, including payment practices
Potential negative impacts on stakeholders’ interests may arise if supplier breaches or non-compliance occur that could halt projects, disrupt operations, or negatively affect project timelines and budgets.
Most suppliers are selected through public procurement. Although we assess suppliers’ compliance with requirements, in rare cases breaches or non-compliance may occur. Such situations may lead to project stoppages, operational disruptions or, in some cases, termination of cooperation with suppliers.
Corruption and bribery
Potential negative impacts on stakeholders’ rights may arise from corrupt or unethical conduct within the Company.
We have implemented measures to prevent corruption incidents and reduce related risks and continuously monitor their effectiveness. Nevertheless, isolated cases are theoretically possible; if they were to occur, a broad range of stakeholders could be affected.
Link to strategy and business model, and how the Company responds
We are a company of strategic importance to the Republic of Lithuania. We implement regional and nationally significant strategic projects that require substantial investments and public procurement procedures. Any breaches related to business conduct, corruption, bribery, or supplier management could have adverse consequences for our projects and stakeholders. Therefore, ethical conduct, a transparent supply chain and responsible supplier relationship management are essential.
In response to these material sub-topics, we:
adhere to transparent governance and accountability principles and apply relevant EPSO-G Group policies, as described throughout this report;
provide regular employee training on business conduct and anti-corruption, covering Company values, behavioural standards, corporate culture and the operating principles of the Trust Line.
We describe our approach and related actions further in the sections below.
30.2.
G1-1 Business conduct policies and corporate culture
We apply the EPSOG Group AntiCorruption Policy, the EPSOG Group Code of Conduct, the EPSOG Group Partners’ Code of Ethics, and the EPSOG Group Employee AntiCorruption Procedure. The content of EPSOG Group policies and other related information is described in more detail in section 2 ESRS General information, MDRP – Policy adopted to manage material sustainability matters.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Through the Partners’ Code of Ethics, we establish the principles we expect suppliers and other business partners: compliance with legislation, fair competition, avoidance of conflicts of interest, zero tolerance for corruption, protection of confidential information and responsible data management.
We also apply Internal Rules of Procedure, an Equal Opportunities Policy and related procedural description, the Procedure for the Prevention of Discrimination, Violence and/or Harassment and Sexual Harassment and the EPSO-G Group Procedure governing the operation and administration of the Trust Line (whistle-blowing mechanism). All employees are required to familiarise themselves with these documents and comply with their provisions.
All Litgrid employees, by adhering to the above-mentioned documents and the values adopted across the Group, help to shape and maintain a respectful and tolerant working environment and culture.
The promotion of Litgrid’s culture starts with managers who, in line with the EPSO-G Group Code of Ethics, demonstrate leadership and set an example for employees on how to uphold the principles of ethical conduct and foster an appropriate culture
Positions that carry the highest risk of corruption and bribery are those included in the list of positions subject to checks under applicable legislation. This list is published publicly on our website.
We strengthen our corporate culture through:
targeted initiatives promoting inclusivity and ethical awareness (e.g., Equal Opportunities Month);
regular anti-corruption and compliance training, supported by internal communication campaigns;
community engagement and social responsibility initiatives (e.g., volunteering days, tree-planting campaigns, blood donation and charitable initiatives);
development of customer-centric competencies across the organisation;
leadership training for managers focused on responsible leadership and organisational culture.
Company values are embedded in both day-to-day operations and strategic activities. They are approved by the Board together with the Company’s Strategy. Adherence to values is reflected in annual performance evaluations and may influence financial incentives.
To promote employee engagement and reinforce the organisation’s values, we use a variety of communication tools. We strengthen a shared understanding of culture and behaviour through visual and interactive measures, such as computer screensavers, posters in office corridors, the sharing of best practices in meetings and events, and articles on the intranet.
Reporting channel and protection of whistle-blowers
We have established mechanisms to report, identify and investigate concerns, including unlawful conduct, breaches of ethics, environmental or occupational health and safety violations, unethical behaviour and partner non-compliance with the Partners’ Code of Ethics. These processes are governed by internal regulations.
The Trust Line is available to both employees and external stakeholders and allows anonymous reporting. We publish information about this channel, its operating principles, the persons responsible and the ways in which reports can be submitted on the Company’s website, on the intranet and through targeted communication campaigns. In addition, the process for handling reports is regulated by internal legal acts. Reports received through the Trust Line are recorded in the Compliance Register and examined in accordance with the established procedure, ensuring confidentiality, objectivity and impartiality. Investigations are carried out independently, in line with the presumption of innocence, and the results are documented and reported in annual reports to the EPSO-G Audit Committee and, where applicable, to the Company’s Board.
Business conduct incidents, including corruption and bribery, are addressed promptly, independently and objectively through our internal investigation system.
We comply with EU and national legal requirements implementing Directive (EU) 2019/1937 on the protection of whistle-blowers. Any form of retaliation against a whistle-blower is strictly prohibited. Reporting must not result in adverse consequences for the reporting person or their family members. Protection includes, but is not limited to, prohibition of dismissal, suspension, demotion, non-renewal of fixed-term contracts or any other discriminatory or retaliatory action.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
30.3.
G1-2 Management of relationships with suppliers
Within EPSOG Group companies, procurement is considered a key enabler of strategy. It is planned on a long-term basis, digitised, and guided by principles of transparency and sustainability. Suppliers are selected using environmental and social criteria.
Most of our procurements are conducted in accordance with the Law on Public Procurement of the Republic of Lithuania, applicable to entities operating in water management, energy, transport, and postal services sectors. Potential suppliers must not be subject to exclusion grounds related to breaches of environmental or social requirements and must meet established qualification criteria. We treat 100% of public procurement as green and conduct all procedures in line with the requirements set by the Minister of the Environment. Since 2024, we have included social criteria into procurement conditions; in 2025, such procurement accounted for 51.89% of total procurement.
The most significant tenders are managed by certified procurement specialists holding certificates issued by the Public Procurement Service, thereby strengthening compliance risk management.
Prior to contract conclusion, suppliers confirm their adherence to the Partners’ Code of Ethics and complete a Partner Due Diligence questionnaire. This process enables us to assess compliance, identify potential risks and formulate recommendations regarding environmental policies and other sustainability measures. The data collected are analysed both individually and collectively to monitor systemic trends.
More than 80% of suppliers across the Group (by number of contracts) are local. We apply structured contract performance monitoring to track suppliers’ performance and their ability to meet contractual obligations.
We also manage payment-related risks, particularly in relation to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Contract monitoring supports timely payments, while our financial management practices are designed to ensure transparency and efficiency in settlements.
Below, we present the procurement-related targets aligned with the strategic directions of the EPSO-G group. Within Litgrid, we retain the discretion to set more ambitious targets than those established at the Group level, but never lower than the Group baseline.
Target

30.4.
G1-3 Prevention and detection of corruption and bribery
We are committed to operating transparently, lawfully and responsibly. We apply a zero-tolerance approach to corruption and bribery. Corruption in any form is unacceptable. We regularly assess corruption risks and implement appropriate mitigation measures where risks are identified.
Our anti-corruption activities are conducted in full compliance with applicable legislation, guided by best practices, and aligned with the principles of an anti-corruption management system based on the international standard ISO 37001:2016 – Anti-Bribery Management Systems: Requirements and Guidance for Use.
The EPSO-G Group Anti-Corruption Policy serves as the primary regulatory framework governing anti-corruption activities. It defines anti-corruption principles and the roles and responsibilities of individuals involved in prevention and oversight. The Policy is aligned with ISO 37001:2016, the United Nations Convention against Corruption, Lithuanian anti-corruption legislation and internationally recognised best practices.
We have measures in place to prevent corruption and bribery, covering both risk management and incident investigation. The EPSOG Group’s AntiCorruption Policy sets out the following key measures:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
restrictions on giving and receiving gifts and clear procedures for granting sponsorship or support;
conflict-of-interest management measures for employees and members of collegial bodies to ensure the primacy of the Company’s interests. We monitor private interest declarations using an automated Power BI solution, which allows real-time tracking of timely declarations and analysis of data according to selected indicators;
business partner screening;
employee reliability assurance measures;
an operational Helpline;
internal investigation procedures for potential misconduct (including suspected corruption);
transparency measures for contracts and transactions;
raising awareness through training and communication;
ensuring procurement transparency.
The internal investigation process ensures independence: corruption-related cases are handled by a dedicated unit rather than operational management. Investigation reports are submitted to the CEO and, where necessary, to relevant unit heads, strictly on a need-to-know basis.
We publicly disclose our corruption prevention documents; they are available to all interested persons and organisations on our website. In addition, the Company’s intranet includes a dedicated section, ‘Anticorruption management system governance’, which provides key information for employees in one place, including links to private interest declaration systems, the gifts register, applicable legislation and updates related to corruption prevention. The information published on the website includes:
relevant regulatory legislation;
preventive measures applied;
links to regulatory documents;
contact details.
This information is provided in Lithuanian and English. Suppliers are introduced to the EPSO-G Group Partners’ Code of Ethics and commit to comply with it when participating in public procurement tenders. Employees are regularly informed of corruption prevention topics through internal communication channels and the document management system.
Employee training on corruption prevention
We provide structured anti-corruption training for both new and existing employees through seminars, lectures and practical sessions.
Anti-corruption training is provided to all employees, regardless of their position, to ensure general awareness and understanding of the principles of corruption prevention. In addition, members of administrative, management, and supervisory bodies are also included in this training to increase their knowledge and involvement in this area.
In April and November 2025, remote training sessions were delivered for new employees, with 59 colleagues participating. The training covered the definition and forms of corruption, potential risks, and the applicable policies and procedures related to identifying and reporting possible breaches.
Employees also have access to the e-learning course “Anti-corruption awareness training”. Completion is mandatory during the probation period for new employees and assigned to existing employees who have not yet completed the course.
All training programmes address core topics, including identification of potential breaches, reporting procedures, investigation processes and compliance obligations.
30.5.
G1-4 Confirmed incidents of corruption or bribery
During the reporting period, we recorded no corruption or bribery incidents, including incidents related to:
convictions or fines for violations of anticorruption and antibribery laws;
breaches of internal procedures requiring corrective action;
confirmed corruption or bribery cases;
employee dismissals or disciplinary measures related to corruption;
termination or non-renewal of contracts with business partners due to corruption-related offences;
public legal proceedings against the Company or its employees concerning corruption;
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
corruption-related incidents involving the Company within the value chain.
30.6.
G1-6 Payment practices
We apply a responsible payment policy to ensure transparent and timely payments to suppliers. Payment practices do not differ between large companies and SMEs.
Average time taken to pay an invoice*
The arithmetic average is 28 calendar days, and the weighted average is 33 calendar days.
Standard contractual payment terms by contract category
- Without a written contract (verbal contracts) – within 14 calendar days from invoice issuance.
In 2025, 43.48% of payments were made within this term;
- With written contracts (including public and non‑public procurement contracts) – 30 calendar days.
In 2025, 77.35% of payments were made within this term.
Note. *from the day the contractual or statutory payment period begins, expressed in days.
Some contracts have payment terms of 30 days or more but are difficult to identify in the short term.
At the end of the reporting period, there were no legal proceedings related to late payments.

CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE RESILIENCE
31.1.
SBM-3 – Material impacts, risks and opportunities and their interaction with strategy and business model
As part of Litgrid’s double materiality assessment, we identified an undertakingspecific material topic, “Critical infrastructure resilience”. The material impact and risk are described in the table below.
In the previous reporting period, we had not identified this topic and, accordingly, had not disclosed it.
Material impacts, risks and opportunities in the topic “Critical infrastructure resilience”
Sustainability topic
Impact and risk
Critical infrastructure resilience
Potential negative impact to consumers and society could arise if critical infrastructure were compromised through a potential physical or cyberattack, leading to material consequences for the Company’s customers and national infrastructure
Risk: a financial risk could arise if critical infrastructure was compromised and the Company had to restore damaged critical infrastructure assets and components and reinstate disrupted electricity supply
Link to strategy and business model, and how the Company responds
Critical infrastructure resilience is one of our core responsibilities.
We strengthen resilience in several ways:
We assess the reliability level of electricity transmission using ENS indicator (energy not supplied) — the amount of electricity not supplied due to interruptions.
We regularly assess threats related to information systems, physical security and security management systems. We update existing security measures and implement new ones.
We implement cybersecurity measures and actively participate in cybersecurity exercises.
We implement a comprehensive Litgrid infrastructure resilience programme to increase the protection and resilience of critical electricity system equipment and assets against hybrid threats.
We have performed an analysis of risks related to critical infrastructure resilience. Our risk register includes the risk that critical infrastructure equipment and assets could be damaged and/or destroyed. While we manage this risk through risk management measures and continuous improvement of protection systems, the risk and the potential negative impact remain due to geopolitical uncertainty.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
31.2.
MDR-P – Policy adopted to manage material sustainability matters
In managing the potential impact and risk related to “Critical infrastructure resilience”, we follow these Group policies:
EPSOG Group Information Security Policy. This policy sets rules for identifying, classifying and protecting sensitive information related to infrastructure management and security. It restricts access to sensitive data, defines principles for secure handling and transfer, and assigns responsibilities, thereby reducing the risk of information leakage that could affect infrastructure reliability and business continuity.
EPSOG Group Risk Management Policy. This policy requires identifying and assessing risks that may affect infrastructure reliability and business continuity; setting risk limits and ensuring that critical risks are prioritised; preparing risk management plans where risks exceed defined limits; ensuring ongoing monitoring and reporting so preventive measures are taken in time; and ensuring allocation of responsibilities and decisionmaking based on standardised processes.
Further information on EPSOG Group policies is provided in section 2 ESRS General information, MDRP – Policy adopted to manage material sustainability matters. Group operational policies are publicly available on the EPSOG website.
Additionally, our Information Security Management System was certified under the ISO 27001 standard in 2022, and in 2025 it was recertified according to the updated ISO 27001:2022 version, covering both corporate and technological processes.

MDR-A – Actions and resources related to material sustainability matters
To ensure the physical resilience of critical infrastructure, we follow the Litgrid Physical Security Procedure, which sets physical security levels, technical and organisational measures and responsibilities (including the role of the physical security commission and the physical security manager).
In 2024, we approved the Emergency Situation Prevention Measures Plan for 2024–2026.
We increase critical infrastructure resilience through a resilience programme: the programme includes 15 projects and a total scope of more than 150 measures implemented across individual transmission grid sites.
We group resilience projects into four categories:
physical security of sites;
protection against unmanned aerial vehicles (hereafter referred to as “UAV(s)”);
formation of emergency and crisis reserves;
preparedness to operate under critical conditions.
Together with Litgrid and other energy companies, the Ministry of Energy is implementing a programme for the development of physical protection systems for strategically significant energy infrastructure assets. Our physical security projects began in 2024 and 2025. Most of these projects are planned for completion by the end of 2027, with the remaining projects scheduled for completion by the end of 2029.
One of the first measures implemented in 2025 was the installation of protective interlocking blocks (easytoinstall concrete blocks) intended to provide more effective protection for critical equipment at electricity transmission substations.
We organise annual employee development and training and conduct physical security drills involving the Public Security Service, police and/or the Lithuanian Armed Forces.
At our most critical energy infrastructure sites, we are deploying UAV detection and neutralisation systems designed for continuous detection and geolocation of UAVs and their operators, and for preventing unauthorised UAV entry into protected areas. Implementation of these projects started in 2024 and is planned to be completed in 2027.
In 2024, we acquired a modular emergency overhead line restoration system, and during the reporting period we carried out practical drills to train its use. This is specialised, easily transportable modular equipment designed for the rapid restoration of damaged 110–400 kV overhead transmission lines and to ensure continuity of electricity transmission. Using this technology, overhead line restoration structures can be installed without a crane and can reach heights of more than 40 metres, making supply restoration several dozen times faster. This equipment is particularly important for ensuring the reliability of the only 400 kV synchronous interconnection overhead line—if at least one tower is physically destroyed, these systems enable rapid restoration of its operation. The modular emergency overhead line restoration system can also be used to install temporary line sections during
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
highvoltage network repairs where it is necessary to ensure electricity supply to households and businesses or to accept electricity from a generating source.
In 2022 we began projects to ensure readiness to operate in a critical mode; some have already been implemented, and the remaining projects are planned to be completed in 2028.
In 2025, we conducted comprehensive civil protection exercises to test preparedness to respond to mixed threats—hybrid, physical and information threats—that could affect the reliability of the electricity transmission grid and system operation. These exercises enabled us to assess the effectiveness of our security measures, identify areas for improvement in physical protection systems, and strengthen Litgrid’s and partner services’ response time, coordination of actions and cooperation procedures.
For the implementation of the critical infrastructure programme through 2029, we will allocate approximately EUR 150 million.
31.4.
MDR-T – Targets and monitoring of effectiveness
We are a member of ENTSOE. Under the 2024–2028 strategic plan, we aim to ensure a safe and efficient electricity system: to increase grid security and reliability to avoid supply disruptions, and to continuously monitor system operation so that emerging issues can be identified and addressed in a timely manner.
We also monitor reliability through ENS and AIT indicators:
ENS (energy not supplied) – the amount of electricity not supplied due to interruptions (limit set by National Energy Regulatory Council: 27.251 MWh per year);
AIT (average interruption time) – the average duration of electricity transmission interruptions (limit set by National Energy Regulatory Council: 0.934 minutes per year).
31.5.
MDR-M – Metrics related to the material topic
The requirements of these indicators are set by the national regulator, the National Energy Regulatory Council. An external independent body that is not an assurance services provider does not verify these metrics. We follow the resolution of the National Energy Regulatory Council approving the methodology for electricity transmission reliability and service quality indicators.
We disclose the values of the indicators we monitor in Litgrid’s Annual Integrated Report, section “2.4 Operating indicators of electricity transmission and the network’s reliability”.

DISCLOSURE UNDER THE EU TAXONOMY REGULATION
The European Union (EU) Taxonomy Regulation (EU) 2020/852 and the delegated acts adopted thereunder (hereinafter referred to as “Taxonomy”) establish a classification system for environmentally sustainable economic activities. This system is designed to help market participants identify activities that make a substantial contribution to the achievement of EU environmental objectives and to create the conditions for directing capital towards sustainable investments.
Article 9 of the Taxonomy Regulation sets out six environmental objectives: climate change mitigation; adaptation to climate change; sustainable use and protection of water and marine resources; transition to a circular economy; pollution prevention and control; and protection and restoration of biodiversity and ecosystems. An economic activity is considered environmentally sustainable where it (i) makes a substantial contribution to at least one objective, (ii) does not cause significant harm (Do No Significant Harm, hereinafter – DNSH) to the other objectives, (iii) is carried out in compliance with minimum safeguards, and (iv) meets the technical screening criteria (hereinafter – TSC).
The content and presentation of disclosures of Taxonomy indicators (turnover, capital expenditure (CapEx) and operating expenditure (OpEx)) are laid down in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2178, which implements the provisions of Article 8 of the Taxonomy Regulation (EU) 2020/852. In the financial year 2025 report, the Company applies the requirements of (EU) 2021/2178, considering the amendments introduced by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2026/73 (hereinafter – (EU) 2026/73), which simplify the content and presentation of disclosed information, including the application of a 10% materiality threshold.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
The technical screening criteria for the climate objectives are set out in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/2139 (the Climate Delegated Act), and for the other environmental objectives – in Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2023/2486 (the Environmental Delegated Act). (EU) 2026/73 also provides for certain simplifications of DNSH criteria.
Note. The Complementary Climate Delegated Act (EU) 2022/1214 (nuclear energy and certain fossil gas activities) is not relevant to the Company’s activities. In assessing the Environmental Delegated Act (EU) 2023/2486, the Company did not identify activities to which the technical screening criteria set out in that act would apply; therefore, the main focus of the disclosures is on the climate change mitigation objective.
EU Taxonomy application and disclosure process at “Litgrid”
EU Taxonomy information is prepared in a consistent sequence:
1)
taxonomy-eligible economic activities are identified based on the delegated acts;
2)
compliance of the activities with the TSC and DNSH criteria is assessed;
3)
compliance with minimum safeguards is evaluated;
4)
indicators (KPIs) are calculated – the shares of turnover, CapEx and OpEx;
5)
explanatory (contextual) information is provided.
Minimum safeguards
We assess and confirm that, in carrying out taxonomy-eligible economic activities, we comply with the minimum safeguards set out in Article 18 of the Taxonomy Regulation. We ensure this by applying the policies, procedures and control mechanisms implemented in the Company, which are designed to ensure compliance with requirements in the areas of human rights, occupational safety, equal opportunities, tax transparency, fair competition and anti-corruption.
Identification of taxonomy-eligible economic activities (2025)
Following an assessment of the Company’s activities, we determined that Litgrid’s main taxonomy-eligible activity is “4.9 Transmission and distribution of electricity” (NACE D35.12). In addition to the main activity, the following supplementary taxonomy-eligible activities were identified: 4.1 Electricity generation using solar photovoltaic technology; 6.5 Transport by motorcycles, passenger cars and light commercial vehicles; 7.4 Installation, maintenance and repair of charging stations for electric vehicles in buildings (and in parking spaces adjacent to buildings); and, additionally in 2025, 6.4 Operation of micro-mobility solutions, bicycle transport logistics and 7.2 Renovation of existing buildings.
In line with the prevailing practice of electricity transmission system operators, the calculation of Taxonomy KPIs primarily reflects the core regulated activity (4.9 – Transmission and distribution of electricity), while other identified Taxonomy-eligible activities are assessed to the extent that they are material for the purposes of KPI calculation.
Materiality threshold and disclosures for activities 6.4 and 7.2
In accordance with (EU) 2026/73, economic activities may be considered immaterial if, cumulatively, they account for less than 10% of the relevant KPI denominator. Materiality is assessed separately for each KPI (turnover, CapEx and OpEx). For 2025, it was determined that the turnover, CapEx and/ or OpEx attributable to activities 6.4 and 7.2 cumulatively account for less than 10% of the total value of the relevant indicator for each KPI; therefore, the report does not present an assessment of these activities’ compliance with the TSC and DNSH criteria. This is disclosed in the contextual information and accompanying KPI notes.
Accounting policy and KPI calculation principles
The Company calculates and discloses Taxonomy indicators (KPIs) – the shares of turnover, CapEx and OpEx – related to (i) taxonomy-eligible activities and/or (ii) taxonomy-eligible activities that meet the criteria, in accordance with (EU) 2021/2178 (as amended by (EU) 2026/73). A consistent approach is applied in the calculations and, where the guidance allows different interpretations, a conservative allocation is used, particularly for the OpEx indicator.
Avoidance of double counting
To avoid double counting, each KPI amount is allocated to a specific economic activity. Where an activity could contribute to more than one environmental objective, it is included only once in the KPI calculations, in accordance with the methodology set out in (EU) 2021/2178.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Calculation of Taxonomy-eligible turnover (revenue)
The proportion of taxonomy-eligible turnover is calculated by dividing revenue attributable to taxonomy-eligible (and/or criteria-compliant) activities (the numerator) by total Company revenue (the denominator). Revenue that, in the Company’s assessment, is not related to taxonomy-eligible activities (e.g., revenue from the administration of guarantees of origin) is classified as non-taxonomy-eligible.
Calculation of Taxonomy-eligible capital expenditure (CapEx)
The proportion of taxonomy-eligible CapEx is calculated by dividing CapEx attributable to taxonomy-eligible (and/or criteria-compliant) activities (the numerator) by total CapEx (the denominator). CapEx includes all capital expenditures incurred during the reporting year, regardless of whether the asset has been commissioned or is still in the project development phase. Taxonomy-eligible activity CapEx is recognised in accordance with IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment” and IAS 38 “Intangible Assets.” Capitalised salaries, travel expenses, and interest are excluded from CapEx calculations, as are capital expenditures financed by third parties and transferred free of charge.
Calculation of Taxonomy-eligible operating expenditure (OpEx)
The proportion of taxonomy-eligible OpEx is calculated by dividing OpEx attributable to taxonomy-eligible (and/or criteria-compliant) activities (the numerator) by total Taxonomy-defined OpEx (the denominator). Taxonomy-defined OpEx includes direct non-capitalised costs related to research and development, building renovation measures, short-term leases, maintenance and repairs, as well as other direct expenditures required to ensure the continuous and effective use of assets. Consequently, Taxonomy-defined OpEx may not be directly reconcilable to operating expenses presented in the financial statements.

Material accounting policy
The material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 are summarised below:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
2.1.
Basis of preparation
The Company’s financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union and meet them.
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for property, plant and equipment which is recorded at revalued amount, less accumulated depreciation and estimated impairment losses, and financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income.
Amounts in these financial statements are presented in thousands of euro (EUR), unless otherwise stated.
The statement of cash flows is prepared indirectly.
The Company's financial year coincides with the calendar year.
Accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year except as follows:
a)
Adoption of new and/or amended IFRSs and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC):
In the year ended 31 December 2025, The following IFRSs, amendments and IFRIC interpretations were adopted by the Company:
Amendments to IAS 21 Lack of Exchangeability (issued on 15 August 2023 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025). In August 2023, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 21 to help entities assess exchangeability between two currencies and determine the spot exchange rate, when exchangeability is lacking. An entity is impacted by the amendments when it has a transaction or an operation in a foreign currency that is not exchangeable into another currency at a measurement date for a specified purpose. When applying the new requirements, it is not permitted to restate comparative information. It is required to translate the affected amounts at estimated spot exchange rates at the date of initial application, with an adjustment to retained earnings or to the reserve for cumulative translation differences.
Based on the assessment of the Company’s management, these amendments have no significant impact on these financial statements.
(b) Standards, amendments and interpretations endorsed by the European Union on 1 January 2026, but have not been early adopted by the Company:
Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments - Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 (issued on 30 May 2024 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026). On 30 May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 to:
clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities, with a new exception for some financial liabilities settled through an electronic cash transfer system;
clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) criterion;
add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some instruments with features linked to the achievement of environment, social and governance (ESG) targets); and
update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI).
Based on the assessment of the Company’s management, these amendments have no significant impact on these financial statements.
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 - Contracts Referencing Nature-dependent Electricity (issued on 18 December 2024 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026). The IASB issued amendments to help companies better report the financial effects of nature-dependent electricity contracts, which are often structured as power purchase agreements (PPAs). Current accounting requirements may not adequately capture how these contracts affect a company’s performance. To allow companies to better reflect these contracts in the financial statements, the IASB issued the related amendments to IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments. Disclosure. The targeted amendments include: (a) clarifying the application of the ‘own-use’ requirements; (b) permitting hedge accounting if these contracts are used as hedging instruments; and (c) adding new disclosure requirements to enable investors to understand the effect of these contracts on a company’s financial performance and cash flows.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosures in Financial Statements (issued on 9 April 2024 and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027). In April 2024, the IASB has issued IFRS 18, the new standard on presentation and disclosure in financial statements, with a focus on the statement of profit or loss. The key new concepts introduced in IFRS 18 relate to:
the structure of the statement of profit or loss;
required disclosures in the financial statements for certain profit or loss performance measures that are reported outside an entity’s financial statements (that is, management-defined performance measures);
enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.
IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1; many of the other existing principles in IAS 1 are retained, with limited changes. IFRS 18 will not impact the recognition or measurement of items in the financial statements, but it might change what an entity reports as its ‘operating profit or loss’. IFRS 18 will apply for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027 and also applies to comparative information.
Based on the Company’s assessment, these amendments do not have significant impact on the financial statements.
2.2.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
Property, plant and equipment
Items of assets with a useful life over one year and the acquisition cost higher than the set minimal capitalisation value for different groups of assets.
All property, plant and equipment (PP&E) is shown at revalued amounts, based on periodic (at least every 5 years) property valuations, less the amounts of accumulated depreciation, recognised grants and impairment losses.
During the revaluation, each object of the asset and the item within that object are evaluated by indicating the remaining useful life established for that item of the asset.
Decreases in the carrying amount arising on the revaluation of property, plant and equipment that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged against the revaluation reserve directly in equity, and all other decreases are recognised in profit or loss. Increases in the carrying amount offset previous decreases of the same asset are recognised in profit or loss. All other increases in the carrying amount are credited to revaluation reserve.
Each year, the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount of the asset charged to the statement of comprehensive income and depreciation based on the asset’s original cost is transferred from revaluation reserve to retained earnings, after considering the effect of deferred income tax. After the sale or write-off of a property unit, any balance of the revaluation reserve related to this property is transferred to retained earnings.
Interest on targeted and general loans and other borrowing costs (such as the bank’s administration fee, etc.) are included in the acquisition cost of property, plant and equipment, if they are directly attributable to the acquisition of a qualifying asset. A qualifying asset is regarded to be an asset which is developed on the basis of a project the value of which is not less than EUR 1 million and the preparation of which for its intended use or sale takes no less than 12 months. Borrowing costs that are attributable to the acquisition of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset. The capitalisation of borrowing costs is started when costs related to the production or acquisition of the qualifying asset are incurred (a prepayment is made or a payment for works is made according to the signed statement on the works carried out and their respective value) and ended when all the activities necessary for the preparation of the qualifying asset for its intended use or sale in the manner intended by management are substantially complete. While determining the amount of borrowing costs eligible for the capitalisation of costs incurred in the acquisition of qualifying assets, the capitalisation rate is applied.
Construction work in progress represents non-current fixed assets under construction. The cost of such assets includes design, construction works, plant and equipment being installed, and other directly attributable costs.
Prepayments for non-current assets are classified as non-current assets because they are used in long-term activities and are presented in the balance sheet line item “property, plant and equipment”.
Property, plant, and equipment is recorded at acquisition (production) cost, less grants received/receivable for the acquisition of property, property, plant, and equipment, and penalties. Grants comprise financing from the EU support funds, a portion of congestion management funds designated for the financing of investments, payments for the expenses incurred during the
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
connection of producers to the transmission network and performance of works for the relocation/reconstruction of the transmission network’s installations initiated by customers. Capitalization of penalties as cost of property, plant and equipment is disclosed in Note 2.13.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets is recorded at acquisition (production) cost, less grants received/receivable for the acquisition of intangible assets, and penalties. Grants comprise financing from the EU support funds and a portion of congestion management funds designated for the financing of investments. Capitalization of penalties as cost of intangible assets is disclosed in Note 2.13
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. Intangible assets are recognised only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these assets will flow to the Company and the value of assets can be measured reliably. After initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost, less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses, if any.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortisation of intangible assets, except for land, construction work in progress, statutory servitudes and protection zones of the transmission network, is calculated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of the asset. Under IAS 16, non-current assets that are fully depreciated but still in use are not subject to depreciation. The carrying amount of the asset remains the same, usually equals to its residual value, which can be zero.
The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation/amortisation method are reviewed by the Company at each year-end to ensure that they are consistent with the expected pattern of economic benefits from these assets. The effect of changes in estimates, if any, is recognised for newly acquired assets on a prospective basis.
The value of the asset cannot be recovered solely because it is still in use after the end of its useful life. However, if the asset is being renewed or enhanced, the costs of such enhancement are capitalized as a separate asset or the costs incurred are included in the value of existing asset.
Each year the Company estimates acquisition cost or revalued amount of the fully depreciated non-current assets still in use by class of assets.
Estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are as follows:
Categories of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
Useful lives (in years)

- Structures, machinery and equipment, whereof:
- 400, 330, 300, 220, 110, 10 kV electricity transmission and cable lines

- statutory servitudes and protection zones of the transmission network
Not subject to amortisation
Statutory servitudes and protection zones of the transmission network have an indefinite useful life because the right to use the established zones is unlimited in time.
Gain or loss on disposal of non-current assets is calculated as the difference between the proceeds from sale and the book value of the disposed asset and is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income of the reporting year.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Subsequent repair costs incurred when performing major improvements are included in the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these costs will flow to the Company and these costs can be measured reliably. Repair costs for the asset category of overhead lines and cables are accounted for as component of item of assets by estimating the useful life of the new asset. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognised as expenses in the statement of comprehensive income during the financial period in which they are incurred.
2.3.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
At each reporting date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment (including right-of-use assets) and intangible assets to determine whether there are any indications that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable value of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the expected future cash flows are discounted to their present value using the discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.
If the recoverable amount of an asset (or cash-generating unit) is estimated to be less than its carrying value, the carrying value of the asset (cash-generating unit) is reduced to its recoverable value. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a decrease of revaluation reserve.
Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying value of the asset (cash-generating unit) is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying value does not exceed the carrying value that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset (cash-generating unit) in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss, unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase (without exceeding the amount of previous impairment).
2.4.
Inventories
Inventories are initially recorded at acquisition cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Acquisition cost of inventories includes acquisition price and related taxes that are not subsequently recovered from tax administration authorities and costs associated with bringing inventory into their current condition and location. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
Inventories required to be stored as a reserve and the management does not expected these inventories to be used over the normal business cycle of the Company or 12 months are classified as non-current assets. Depreciation is calculated for reserve inventories that are classified as non-current assets. The depreciation rate applied reflects an expected useful life of such inventories.
2.5.
Trade payables and other financial liabilities, borrowings
Financial liabilities, borrowings
Financial liabilities, including borrowings, are recognised initially at fair value, less transaction costs.
In subsequent periods, financial liabilities, excluding borrowings, are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Interest expense is recognised using the effective interest rate method as disclosed in paragraph 2.6 of the notes to the financial statements.
If a financing agreement concluded before the date of the statement of financial position proves that the liability was non-current as of the date of the statement of financial position, that financial liability is classified as non-current.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is settled, cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts of financial liabilities is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.
Trade payables
Trade payables represent commitments to pay for goods and services acquired from suppliers in the ordinary course of business.
Trade payables are classified as current liabilities if the term of their settlement is not longer than one year; otherwise they are included in non-current liabilities.
2.6.
Grants
Asset-related grants
The government and the EU grants received in the form of non-current assets or designated for the purchase of non-current are treated as asset-related grants. The Company’s congestion management revenue, intended for implementation of the projects, are accounted for as asset-related grants.
These grants are accounted for by reducing by the carrying amount of respective non-current assets. In the statement of comprehensive income, grants are recognised over the useful life of the asset by reducing depreciation expenses.
When received in advance, grants related to the acquisition of non-current assets are stated as liabilities until the costs are incurred which are reimbursed in line with terms and condition of financing agreements.
Grants receivable are recorded in other amounts receivable when, in accordance with the agreements under which the grant providers assume the obligation to finance the investment projects, reimbursable costs have been incurred according to the established terms of the financing agreements.
Income-related grants
Grants received as a compensation for expenses or unearned income of the current or previous reporting period, also, all grants, which are not grants related to assets, are defined as grants related to income. Income-related grants are recognised as used in parts to the extent of expenses incurred during the reporting period or unearned income to be compensated by that grant.
Income-related grants are recognised in profit or loss by increasing other income over the period in which the grant is received or when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received and that the Company complies with the conditions for the allocation of the grant established in the grant agreement.
2.7.
Connection of new consumers and producers
The connection of producers is accounted for similarly to the principle applicable to grants by offsetting the acquisition cost of assets created for the connection of the producer against the compensation receivable from the connected producer. In case of relocation works of the electricity transmission network when major improvements are performed and when the assets are created by the Company, the grant principle is applied and the cost of the created assets is offset against the amount of compensations receivable from the customer, and when the assets are created by the customer and transferred to the Company free of charge, the assets received from the third parties are offset against the value of the assets. If the major improvement was not performed during the relocation and the asset was created by the Company, such asset is not recognised, i.e. compensation income from the customer and expenses for the creation of such asset are accounted for. When no major improvement is performed and the asset is created by the customer, the asset received from the customer free of charge is not recognised and accounted for in off-balance sheet accounts.
Revenue received from connection of new consumers is accounted for by the Company over the useful life of the created asset because the connection of a new consumer is related to further consumption and related revenue.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
2.8.
Lease liabilities
Initial measurement of lease liabilities
The amount of the initial measurement of lease liabilities is calculated as the present value of lease payments not paid at the commencement date.
Lease payments are discounted using the incremental borrowing rate, which is applied when the contractual interest rate is not known. The incremental borrowing rate is determined by the rate at which the Company would be able to borrow funds for the purpose of acquiring certain assets for a respective period.
At the commencement date, lease payments included in the measurement of a lease liabilities include:
fixed lease payments less any lease incentives receivable.
variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate.
amounts expected to be payable by the Company under residual value guarantees.
the exercise price of the purchase option, if exercise of that option by the Company is reasonably certain.
fines for the termination of the lease, if it is assumed that the Company will exercise the option to terminate the lease during the lease term.
Subsequent measurement of lease liabilities
Subsequent to initial recognition, changes in the value of the Company’s lease liabilities are reflected by:
increasing the value of the liabilities by the amount of interest charged.
reducing the carrying amount by the lease payments made.
remeasuring the liabilities for lease modifications or revised payments.
Remeasurement of lease liabilities
Subsequent to initial recognition, the lease liabilities is remeasured to reflect changes in lease payments. The Company treats remeasurements as adjustments to the right-of-use assets. If the carrying amount the right-of-use assets is reduced to zero and the lease liabilities is reduced as well, the Company recognises any remaining amount of the remeasurement in profit or loss.
2.9.
Right-of-use assets
Right-of-use assets are assets that the Company has the right to manage during the lease term. As of 1 January 2019, the Company recognises right-of-use assets for all types of leases, including the lease of a right-of-use asset in case of sublease, but excluding leases of intangible assets, short-term leases and leases of low value assets.
Initial measurement of right-of-use assets
At the date of a lease agreement, the Company measures right-of-use assets at cost, which consists of:
the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability.
initial costs incurred directly attributable to the underlying asset.
lease payments known at the commencement date, less any lease incentives received and receivable.
costs to be incurred by the Company in dismantling or removing the underlying asset, restoring the site on which it is located or restoring the underlying asset to the condition required by the terms and conditions of the lease.
The amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability is calculated as the present value of lease payments not paid at the commencement date using the discount rate implicit in the lease.
Subsequent measurement of right-of-use assets
After the initial recognition, the Company applies a cost method for right-of-use assets: the carrying amount of the asset at the respective date is calculated as the difference between the acquisition cost and the accumulated depreciation, plus any subsequent adjustments for the remeasurement of lease liability.
The calculation of depreciation of right-of-use assets is started from the date on which the assets are transferred for the use (the commencement date) until the earlier of these dates: the end of the lease term and the end of the useful life.
The Company calculates depreciation of right-of-use assets using the following rates:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
Land99 years
Motor vehiclesfrom 2 to 4 years
Buildingsfrom 2 to 3 years
Other property, plant and equipment
from 2 to 3 years
The Company applies the portfolio method for the land lease agreements concluded with the municipalities not by auction, i.e. a set of the agreements of the Company is accounted for as a single agreement due to similar criteria. Regardless of the remaining term of the land lease agreement, in accordance with the requirements of the legal acts, the agreements must be extended for as long as the facilities of the Company’s entities exist on the land plots. When assessing the flow generated by the infrastructure assets of the Company’s entities (for the calculation of the recoverable amount of assets), an infinite flow is projected as the ongoing reconstruction and repair works allow using the assets for a longer period than the established original depreciation rates. For this reason, the lease of land is subject to a substantially infinite rate corresponding to the original term of the agreement – 99 years.
2.10.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised only when the Company has a legal obligation or irrevocable commitment as a result of past event, and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of provision is discounted using the effective pre-tax discount rate set based on the interest rates for the period and taking into account specific risks associated with the provision as appropriate. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as borrowing costs.
2.11.
Employee benefits
Bonus plans
The Company recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.
Pension benefits to employees of retirement age
According to the laws of the Republic of Lithuania and the Collective Agreement effective at LITGRID AB, each employee leaving the Company at the retirement age is entitled to a one-off benefit. A liability for such payments is recognised in the balance sheet and it reflects the present value of these payments at the date of the financial statements. At each reporting date, the long-term employee benefit obligation is estimated with reference to actuary valuations using the projected relative unit method. The present value of the defined long-term employee benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows using the effective interest rates as set for government debentures denominated in a currency in which payments to employees are expected to be made and with maturity similar to that of the related liability.
2.12.
Congestion management funds
The Company acquires the right to congestion management revenue when the insufficient power line capacity in the market result in different electricity prices between Lithuania and neighbouring countries (Sweden, Poland, Latvia). Revenue that was received as a result of price differences at different bidding areas is distributed equally by the power exchange operator.
Regulation (EU) No 2019/943 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 June 2019 on conditions for access to the network for cross-border exchanges in electricity stipulates that congestion management funds may be used in the following order of priority:
When revenue is used for guaranteeing availability of the allocated capacity of the interconnections, it is recognised as income in the period during which the related expenses are incurred. In case of unplanned disconnection of the electricity interconnection and when the trade in the interconnection’s capacities has already been completed at the electricity exchange (i.e. when they have already been allocated), the operators of the line ensure that the capacities traded are
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
available to the market participants. In such a case, the operators incur costs that arise as a result of the price difference between the price of electricity traded by the operators and the price of balancing and (or) imbalance electricity purchased/sold by the Company.
When revenue is used for maintaining or increasing the interconnections’ capacities, congestion management funds is accounted for using the accounting policies applicable to grants, i.e. initially congestion management funds is recognised as liability and recorded by reducing the value of the asset concerned, and subsequently it is recognised by reducing depreciation expenses of the related asset over the useful life of that asset.
When revenue is used for reducing the tariff, revenue is recognised as income in the period during which the Company generates lower revenue due to lower tariffs and only in case when revenue cannot be efficiently used for the purposes set out in points a) and/or b). Subject to approval by the regulatory authorities of the Member States concerned, they may be used, up to a maximum amount to be decided by those regulatory authorities, as income to be taken into account by the regulatory authorities when approving the methodology for calculating network tariffs and/or fixing network tariffs.
In the statement of financial position, unused congestion management funds are presented as non-current and current liabilities, given the planned use of congestion management funds to finance investments or to compensate tariff in the following year.
2.13.
Revenue recognition
Revenue from contracts with customers
The Company’s revenue is recognised according to a single, principles based five-step model that is applied to all contracts with customers. The Company recognises revenue from the provision of services in the reporting period during which the performance obligation is satisfied, i.e. the control of services or goods is transferred to the customer. This control may be transferred over time or at a point in time. For certain service contracts, revenue is recognised on the basis of the actual service provided before the end of the reporting period as part of the total services to be provided, as the customer benefits from and uses the services simultaneously.
Revenue from electricity transmission and related services
Revenue from contracts with customers comprises revenue from electricity transmission, ancillary services, trade in imbalance and balancing electricity and revenue from connection of new consumers and other related revenue
Revenue from electricity transmission is revenue for the transmission of electricity via high-voltage facilities from producers to transmission network users, within the limit set by the agreement and calculated on the basis of monthly transmission reports with network users.
Prices of the electricity transmission services are regulated by the Council which establishes the upper limits of the prices for the transmission service. Specific prices and tariffs for the transmission services are established by the Company’s Board within the limits approved by the Council. When establishing prices for the next year, deviations of the current year (the year not yet ended) and deviations of the previous year (the year that already ended) and various forecasts for the upcoming year are assessed, i.e. they increase or decrease the prices for the next year, i.e. the prices are not adjusted retrospectively. All possible price adjustments in the future periods for excess profit/higher loss incurred in the previous/current years are not treated as a variable part of the price under IFRS 15. Such decrease (due to excess profit earned) or increase (due to higher expenses incurred) in future revenue does meet the general accounting criteria for the recognition of liabilities or assets because it depends on the Company’s operations in the future and is treated as the regulated assets or liabilities and therefore, in the opinion of the Company’s management, it does not fall within the scope of IFRS 15.
Revenue from ancillary services is revenue from services provided to transmission network users, other than reserve capacity and frequency regulation services, ensuring reliable system functioning. They are calculated on the basis of monthly transmission reports with network users.
The Company purchases ancillary services from service providers (major portion from producers) and later provides this service to the distribution network operators and other transmission network users (electricity consumers and producers) on the basis of prices set by NERC. The Company recognises the gross amounts of revenue as it acts as a principal in the provision of ancillary services.
Revenue from trade in imbalance and balancing electricity is revenue from the supply of electricity generation/import and demand/export balancing energy, calculated on the basis of monthly balancing and imbalance reports with balancing service providers and suppliers responsible for balancing.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
In choosing the accounting policy for balancing and imbalance transactions, the Company’s management made a significant judgement and determined that, under IFRS 15, the Company acts as the principal in balancing and imbalance electricity transactions, therefore, income and expenses are recognised on a gross basis. In addition, it was assessed that these transactions are entered for the purpose of physical supply of electricity in the course of the Company's ordinary activities and do not meet the definition of derivatives under IFRS 9. This accounting policy choice has a significant impact on the recognition of revenue and expenses and their presentation in the financial statements.
When recognising other income related to electricity transmission and ancillary services the Company takes into consideration the terms of contracts signed with customers and all significant facts and circumstances, including the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty relating to cash flows arising from the contract with the customer. The main sale contracts are signed for the term of one year and coincide with the reporting period. All subsequent value adjustments for previous periods are not made, and contract modifications are rare.
Other income.
Gain from disposal of property, plant and equipment, lease income, income from default charges and fines collected from the contractors as a result of late fulfilment of works, including property, plant and equipment under construction, are recognised by the Company as other income.
Received penalties (default interest, fines) imposed on contractors for delays in completing construction works or delivering equipment are recognised in income when the total amount of penalties under the project does not exceed EUR 1,000.
Received penalties (default interest, fines) imposed on contractors for delays in completing construction works or delivering equipment are capitalised as cost of non-current assets when the project is completed and, at the time of completion, no legal proceedings have been initiated to reduce or cancel the penalties.
Interest income
Interest income is recognised on accrual basis considering the outstanding balance of debt and the applicable interest rate. Interest received is recorded in the statement of cash flows as cash flows from investing activities.
2.14.
Income tax
Income tax expense comprises the current income tax and deferred tax expense (income). Income tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case income tax is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
Income tax
The income tax expense for the current year is calculated on the current year’s profit before tax, as adjusted for certain non-deductible expenses/non-taxable income.
Tax losses can be carried forward for indefinite period, except for the losses incurred as a result of disposal of securities and/or derivative financial instruments. Such carrying forward is disrupted if the Company changes its activities due to which these losses were incurred except when the Company does not continue its activities due to reasons which do not depend on the Company itself. The losses from disposal of securities and/or derivative financial instruments can be carried forward for 5 consecutive years and only be used to reduce the taxable income earned from the transactions of the same nature. Tax losses carried forward can be used to reduce the taxable income earned during the reporting year by maximum of 70%. In addition, the Company may also take over tax losses of the companies of the group or transfer tax losses to other companies of the group provided that the requirements of the Law on Corporate Income Tax are complied with.
Deferred income tax
Deferred taxes are calculated using the balance sheet liability method. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liability are recognised for future tax purposes to reflect differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax liabilities are recognised on all temporary differences that will increase the taxable profit in future, whereas deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent it is probable that they will reduce the taxable profit in future. Deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting, nor taxable profit or loss.
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
The Company reviews the carrying amount of a deferred income tax assets at each reporting date and reduces it to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of a part or all of that deferred tax assets to be utilised. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are estimated using the tax rate that has been applied when calculating income tax for the year when the related temporary differences are to be realised or settled.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset only where they relate to income taxes assessed by the same fiscal authority or where there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and current tax liabilities.
Current income tax and deferred income tax
Current income tax and deferred income tax are recognised as income or expenses and included in profit or loss for the reporting period, except for the cases when tax arises from a transaction or event that is recognised directly in equity or in other comprehensive income, in which case taxes are also recorded in equity and in other comprehensive income respectively.
3.
Accounting estimates and assumptions
Significant accounting estimates and assumptions
The preparation of financial statements according to International Financial Reporting Standards requires management to make estimates and assumptions that applied, the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses, and the disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The significant management estimates and assumptions and the main sources for uncertainties used in the preparation of these financial statements that might cause substantial changes in the carrying amounts of the related assets and liabilities in the next financial year are described below:
Valuation of property, plant and equipment
As described in Note 7, the Company revalued its property, plant and equipment as at 31 December 2023. The determination of the assets’ fair value is mainly affected by assumptions used in assessing the transmission service income for the future periods. The assumptions used in determining the fair value of property, plant and equipment are described in more detail in the above-mentioned note.
Depreciation rates of property, plant and equipment
The useful life of property, plant and equipment is determined separately for each item (component) of the asset by estimating future economic benefit in view of the expected period of use in the Company’s activities, the intensity of use, the environment of use, changes in the asset’s original standard performance over its entire useful life, technological and economic progress morally outdating the asset, legal and similar factors restricting the useful life of property, plant and equipment.
Useful lives are reviewed annually to ensure that the depreciation period would correspond to the expected useful life of property, plant and equipment. The effect of changes in estimates, if any, is accounted for on a prospective basis.
Congestion management funds and deferred income tax assets
Based on the accounting policies described in Note 2.12, accounting for congestion management funds depends on the purpose for which revenue is used. These purposes are described in Regulation (EU) No 2019/943 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 June 2019 on the internal market for electricity.
Deferred tax assets arising from congestion funds received in 2014-2017 and due to taxation with profit tax at the year as they received will be realised over the useful life of the asset acquired using congestion management funds.
In the long term, regulation ensures the Company’s profitability, therefore, in the management’s opinion, deferred income tax assets will be realised in the future by reducing income tax payable.
The congestion management funds received from 2018 are subject to profit tax at the time of use of congestion management funds, so there is no difference between financial and tax accounting.
Balancing and imbalance transaction accounting policy choice
In selecting the accounting policy for balancing and imbalance transactions, the Company‘s management made a significant judgement by determining that the Company acts as a principal in balancing and imbalance electricity transactions in accordance with IFRS 15. Consequently, revenue and expenses are recognised on a gross basis. It was also assessed whether contractual volume flexibility and the ability to monetise excess quantities give rise to derivative financial instruments. These transactions are
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
entered into for the purpose of physical delivery of electricity in the ordinary course of the Company‘s business and the relevant unit of account is considered to be the 15minute imbalance settlement period (ISP). As imbalance volumes are determined only when an imbalance actually arises in a specific 15minute interval and each imbalance is measured, priced, and settled separately for this ISP, there is no annual, monthly, or multiinterval flexibility that system users can exercise for each such unit of account. As the accounting unit is the 15minute ISP, there is no volume flexibility at any moment or at the end of the year, and therefore no written option or other derivative feature exists within the balancing framework. Furthermore, balancing prices include no premium for flexibility and settlement is based on ISPspecific activation prices and neutrality component, therefore these contracts do not meet the definition of derivative financial instruments under IFRS 9. This accounting policy judgment has a significant impact on the recognition and presentation of revenue and expenses in the financial statements. More information is in Note 2.13.
4.
Reclassification of comparative figures in the financial statements
In 2025, the Company made changes to the classification of items in the statement of financial position. Non-current and current financial assets at amortised cost are presented separately from non-financial assets. Accordingly, non-current and current financial liabilities at amortised cost are presented separately from non-financial liabilities. Based on the Company’s assessment, such reclassification of asset and liability items will be more consistent with the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards and the information needs of users of financial information.

Segment information
The Company is engaged in the provision of electricity transmission and related services and its business activities are organised as a single segment. The Board is the main decision-making body of the Company.
The Board monitors the key performance indicators:
profit before interest, taxes, depreciation (amortisation), loss on impairment and write-off of property, plant and equipment (EBITDA).
profit before interest and taxed (EBIT).
net profit.
operating expenses, excluding electricity and related expenses.
These indicators are calculated on the basis of data reported in the financial statements.
The Board also monitors adjusted performance indicator – adjusted EBITDA, which is non-IFRS alternative performance measure. Adjustments include temporary regulatory differences resulting from the Council’s decisions already made and predicted. All adjustments may have both positive and negative impact on the reporting period results. In Board’s view, adjusted EBITDA more accurately presents results of the operations and enable a better comparison of the results between the periods as they indicate the amount that was actually earned by the Group in the reporting year.

Information on the revaluation of property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at revalued amount. The last revaluation of property, plant and equipment was carried out in 2023. The Company considered external and internal factors that could have an impact on the impairment of property, plant and equipment as at 31 December 2025. During 2025, no significant negative changes in the economic, market, or regulatory environment were identified in any of the above segments. Also, no any other significant internal or external circumstances were identified that could indicate potential impairment of property, plant and equipment.
Nonetheless, the Company tested property, plant, and equipment for impairment using a discounted cash flow technique. Test was performed at the level of cash generating unit (CGU) which is represented by the assets of the Company’s electricity transmission network.
The test identified that the carrying amount of the assets within the materiality limits corresponds to their value in use, therefore, as at 31 December 2025, no adjustment were made to the value of property, plant, and equipment.
Key assumptions used in the calculation of the value of assets of electricity transmission system operator as at 31 December 2025 were as follows:
The updated Long -Run Average Incremental Cost (LRAIC) model for the establishment of the regulated asset base and the cost of capital is applied in the regulatory pricing from 2022. The cost of capital comprises depreciation expenses of the regulated assets and return on investments, which is calculated by multiplying the regulated asset base by the rate of return on investments. Over the regulatory period of five years, the cost of assets under optimisation (planned to be restored) is determined using the present (restored) value and investments in the optimised assets over the regulatory period of five years are consistent with the value of assets being restored, which is calculated under the LRAIC model. The cost of capital of the assets that are not optimised is determined using the historical value. Furthermore, taking into consideration available financing sources and aiming to retain a sustainable level of the Company’s debt, an additional component was established for the financing of investments increasing the level of revenue from the regulated activities.
The amounts of investments until 2031 are used from the ten-year investment plan adjusted for actual data, which excludes all development investments.
All operating expenses attributable to the regulated activities are compensated through transmission revenue, except for the compensation of remuneration expenses, the compensation assumption of which is 98%.
The calculation of cash flows for 2026-2027 reflects a difference between the permitted and actual return on transmission investments for 2023-2025, including efficient saving of operating expense to maximise the permitted return on investments (a regulatory surplus to be repaid through a lower transmission price and revenue), and the refund of the result of ancillary services in excess of the amount permitted by NERC to the network consumers (a lower component of ancillary services and revenue), and system balancing loss (to be refunded through a higher neutrality component of the imbalance price and higher revenue from imbalance services).
The rate of return on investments (pre-tax ROI) was set at 5.65% for 2026 (corresponds to a 4.69% post-tax) and, as of 2027, it is equated to the discount rate of 6.37% (corresponds to a 5.28% post-tax WACC). In the calculations of the asset value as at 31 December 2024, the rate of return on investments (pre-tax ROI) was set at 5.72% for 2025-2026 (corresponds to a 4.86% post-tax), and, as of 2027 it is equated to the discount rate of 5.26% (corresponds to a 4.47% post-tax WACC).
Net cash flows from assets were discounted using the discount rate (post-tax WACC) of 5.28% calculated by the Company. (as at 31 December 2024, net cash flows from assets were discounted using the discount rate (post-tax WACC) of 4.47% calculated by the Company).

Right-of-use assets
As indicated below, the Company leases land, office premises, motor vehicles and other property, plant and equipment. The lease terms of the lease contracts (except for the lease of land) is 2-4 years. The lease terms of the land lease contracts is 99 years. When recognising right-of-use assets and lease liabilities and determining the lease terms the Company assessed extension and early termination options of the lease contracts. As the useful life of the right-of-use assets is longer than the lease term, depreciation is calculated from the commencement date of the lease till the end of the lease term.
The Company’s right-of-use assets comprise as follows:

Dividends are allocated pursuant to the approved dividend policy, under which dividends payable are directly linked with the effective use of the company’s equity, i.e. the higher benefits created by the Company for the shareholders are, the larger portion of profit can be allocated by the Company for a further development or implementation of other significant projects.
The Company’s main objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In order to maintain or change the capital structure, the amount of dividends to be paid to the shareholders may be adjusted, capital may be returned to the shareholders, or new shares may be issued.

In 2025,and 2024 the legal reserve accumulated by the Company complied with the requirements of the legal acts of the Republic of Lithuania and represented 10% of the issued share capital.
Revaluation reserve
Pursuant to Article 39(7) of the Law on Companies of the Republic of Lithuania, “the revaluation reserve shall be the amount of increase (decrease) in the value of tangible fixed assets and financial assets resulting after the revaluation of assets in accordance
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
with applicable financial reporting standards. The revaluation reserve or a portion thereof may be used to increase the capital. No part of the revaluation reserve may be distributed, either directly or indirectly.”
In 2025, the Company reduced the revaluation reserve by the amount of EUR 22 thousand as it established the impairment provision in respect of the assets for which the value increase was formed in 2023.

Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
The assumptions applied when calculating provisions for pension benefit obligations to employees were as follows: long-term salary growth rate in 2025 – 3.0 % (2024: 2.8 %), discount rate in 2025 – 1.27 % (2024: 0.96 %), employee turnover rate in 2025 – 9.80 % (2024: 12.2 %), benefit rate in 2025 – the amount of 2-4 monthly average salaries (2024: the amount of 2-4 monthly average salaries).
In 2025, the Company revised the provision for servitude liabilities and increased it by EUR 113 thousand, taking into account statistics on payment requests (2024: decreased by EUR 287 thousand). Please see Note 6.
In 2025, the Company the Company made a new EUR  232 thousand provision for registration of protected zones under new contracts, and adjusted downwards by EUR  23 thousand, the provision of protection zones for the protection of electronic communications infrastructure, while recognising provisioning expenses of EUR  9 thousand. See Note 6 (in 2024 the Company adjusted downwards by EUR 103 thousand the provision of protection zones for the protection of electronic communications infrastructure, while recognising provisioning expenses of EUR 4 thousand.
In the light of ongoing litigations, as at 31 December 2025 and 2024, there were no any provisions recognised for legal proceedings.
In April 2024, under the ruling of the Court of Appeal, the Company repaid EUR 1,358 thousand in penalties to the claimant.

In 2025, revenue increased by 14 % compared to 2024, including:
Revenue from electricity ancillary services increased 29 % due to a higher electricity ancillary services acquisition component to the transmission service price.
Revenue from electricity transmission services (after the EUR 34,471 thousand congestion management revenue used in 2025 to reduce transmission tariff) increased by 4 %.
Revenue from balancing/imbalance energy sale increased by 6% due to higher sales of electricity.
Imbalance pricing has changed since October 2024, when Litgrid connected to a single European platform for the exchange of balancing energy from frequency restoration reserves with manual activation (MARI). The neutrality component, which is added to (deducted from) the balancing energy reference price, before the connection to MARI, was calculated based on the actual balancing trade data for the reporting month, to socialise the expenses and/or income, which Litgrid incurred. After the connection to MARI, the neutrality component is calculated in advance and adjusted for subsequent months using actual data from previous months, which may result in a significant difference between the balancing and imbalance income and expenses during the reporting period. The difference between the balancing/imbalance energy expenses (Note 30) and income in 2025 amounted to EUR  3 201 thousand (2024: the difference between the balancing/imbalance energy expenses and income amounted to EUR  4 731 thousand). The difference between income and expenses should not have an impact on the long-term profitability, as it should be considered when making pricing corrections in future periods
*High electricity generation and low consumption result in a positive supply surplus, leading to negative electricity, balancing, and/or imbalance prices. 96 % of negative revenue consisted of revenue from balancing electricity and 4 % negative imbalance income due to imbalance prices. Downward balancing (when an electricity producer must reduce electricity generation by order of TSO) prices are set according to the marginal (lowest) auction price, which is negative due to producers' costs related to reducing
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
production and/or negative electricity exchange prices. The imbalance price is calculated by adding (when consumption demand exceeds generation supply) or subtracting (when generation supply exceeds consumption demand) the neutrality component to the balancing price, therefore negative imbalance prices are formed if there is a negative balancing price and/or generation supply exceeds consumption demand.

Liquidity risk
The main objective of the Company’s liquidity policy is to ensure funding of its operations, i.e. to ensure that the Company will have sufficient cash and/or committed credit facilities and overdrafts to meet its contractual obligations at any time. The liquidity risk is managed by making forecasts of cash flows of the Company.
The Company’s cash flows from operations were positive in 2025, therefore its exposure to liquidity risk were not significant. The Company’s current ratio (total current assets / total current liabilities) and quick ratio ((total current assets – inventories) / total current liabilities) as at 31 December 2025 were 1.28 (31 December 2024:  1.67). As described in Note 2.12, the Company may temporarily use congestion management funds when necessary.
The table below summarise the contractual maturity dates of the Company’s financial liabilities. This information has been prepared based on undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay. Balances of trade and other amounts payable with repayment terms up to 12 months are equal to their carrying amounts, because the impact of discounting is insignificant.

Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities
The Company’s principal financial assets and liabilities not carried at fair value are trade and other amounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, loans, trade and other amounts payable and other financial assets.
The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the value of each category of financial instruments that are not measured at fair value:
Litgrid INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR 2025
The carrying amount of current trade and other amounts receivable, other financial assets, cash and cash equivalents, loans to the related parties, current trade payables and other amounts payable approximates their fair value.
The fair value of non-current borrowings is based on the quoted market price for the same or similar issues or on the current rates available for borrowings with the same maturity profile. The fair value of the Company’s non-current borrowings with fixed interest rates was approximately EUR 2,103 thousand lower than their carrying amount as at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: EUR  3,616 thousand).

Legal proceedings and contingent liabilities
The Company charged default interest to the contractor implementing the investment project for the delay in the performance of works and deferred payments against issued VAT invoices totalling EUR 8,943 thousand, which were disclosed under ‘Payables for property, plant and equipment and inventories’ in Note 22. It is likely that, during, or after the term of the contract, the Contractor may bring an action before the Vilnius Court of Commercial Arbitration, requesting a reduction or cancellation of the penalties.
INTER RAO LIETUVA AB (hereinafter “INTER RAO”) filed for arbitration against Litgrid, AS Augstsprieguma tikls and Elering AS based on the balancing energy purchase/sale agreement (hereinafter the “Balancing Agreement”). Until 31/12/2022, INTER RAO provided balancing energy purchase/sale services to the Baltic system operators related to the participation of the Baltic system operators in the BRELL system. In 2022. the Baltic system operators suspended payments to INTER RAO due to the Russia’s aggression against Ukraine and the related sanctions.
INTER RAO requests Litgrid to pay EUR 5,300 thousand of suspended payments for balancing energy supplied until 31/12/2022, disclosed under ‘Payables for electricity’ in Note 22, and accrued interest. Additionally, INTER RAO requests Litgrid to pay more than EUR 8 million in compensation, around EUR 583,000 in litigation costs, and interest accrued for the period after the end of the Balancing Agreement.
The arbitration case is settled, and, as of 17/12/2025, the arbitration is stayed, but the decisions is scheduled for 06/10/2026.
The Baltic system operators are jointly and severally liable for any compensation awarded by the arbitration decision. The amounts payable by the Baltic system operators would be distributed as follows: Litgrid – 42%, Elering AS – 32% ir AS Augstsprieguma tikls – 26%.

Climate change assessment
In the context of climate change mitigation, we consider both the positive and negative impacts of Litgrid’s operations: We play an important role in enabling the transformation of the energy sector into a system based on green energy. At the same time, Scope 1-3 GHG emissions, with the largest share arising from the technological losses in the electricity transmission network (Scope 2), have impact on the climate. We have the GHG emission reduction plan in place to manage material impacts, where the use of green energy to cover technological losses and own needs (including the purchase of guarantees of origin) is incorporated as the main measure.
In 2025, we signed a long-term green energy supply agreement with Ignitis UAB (effective from 01/01/2026 to 31/12/2032). We also plan financial PPA as an additional measure, which we expect to complete in early 2026. Aiming to contribute to international and national climate change mitigation goals, we are guided by the United Nations’ Agenda for Sustainable Development, the Paris Agreement, the European Green Deal, the National Energy Independence Strategy, the National Energy and Climate Plan, and the National Climate Change Management Agenda. These commitments are subject to the Environmental Policy of the EPSO-G Group.
