TITLE I - SHORT TITLE, FINDINGS, DECLARATIONS

ARTICLE 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the "Lithuania Productive Capacity Authority and Energy Security Act 2026" (Lietuvos gamybinio pajėgumo institucijos ir energetinio saugumo įstatymas 2026).

ARTICLE 2. FINDINGS.

The Seimas finds:

FINDING 1 - ILTE AS INDIGENOUS LITHUANIAN CHASSIS. Lithuania already operates UAB ILTE ("Investicijos Lietuvos ekonomikai"), the state-owned national development bank governed by the Law on the National Development Bank of the Republic of Lithuania. Founded in 2001 and renamed from INVEGA on 30 August 2024 as part of its conversion into a full national development bank, ILTE provides loans, guarantees, and venture-capital investments in state-defined priority areas. In late 2025 the Ministry of Finance quadrupled ILTE's statutory capital from €53 million to €203 million to expand leverage capacity. ILTE is the indigenous Lithuanian chassis for productive-capacity financing at sovereign scale and the natural Lithuanian-institutional anchor for the Authority under this Act, consistent with the per-jurisdiction- indigenous doctrine applied across the sibling international Productive Capacity Authority adaptations.

FINDING 2 - BALTIC SYNCHRO ESTABLISHED LITHUANIAN ENERGY SOVEREIGNTY. On 9 February 2025 at 14:05 EET, with the historic ceremony held in Vilnius, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania jointly disconnected from the IPS/UPS Soviet-era electricity grid and the 2001 BRELL Agreement (Belarus-Russia-Estonia-Latvia- Lithuania) under Moscow's centralised dispatch, and synchronised with the Continental Europe Synchronous Area (CESA) managed by ENTSO-E. The Lithuanian role was led by Litgrid AB, which had signed a cooperation agreement with the Polish transmission operator PSE in July 2024 to prepare for the synchronisation. The Baltic Synchro is the largest single-event reorientation of national-grid governance in post-1991 Lithuanian history. Energy security is now anchored on European solidarity rather than Russian-controlled dispatch. This Act elevates Energy Security as a co-equal Title of the Authority's mandate to consolidate and extend the strategic gains of the Baltic Synchro.

FINDING 3 - KLAIPĖDA LNG TERMINAL ENERGY-SOVEREIGNTY ARC. The floating storage and regasification unit "Independence" entered service at the Klaipėda LNG terminal in 2014 under a ten-year lease from Höegh LNG. KN Energies AB (formerly Klaipėdos nafta), the state-owned terminal operator, acquired full ownership of the FSRU in December 2024. In 2025 the terminal achieved record throughput with 34 LNG vessels unloaded, and long-term capacity occupancy was secured through 2033. KN's open season of February 2026 offered 28 TWh/year from 2033-2044 in 4-TWh packages. The naming of the FSRU, the post-2022 elimination of Russian gas, and the 2024 full acquisition together establish the Lithuanian energy-sovereignty arc on which this Act's Energy Security Title is anchored.

FINDING 4 - ALTRA + BWRX-300 SMR ASSESSMENT-PHASE MOU. Altra (formal name SE Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant, rebranded late 2025), Synthos Green Energy (Poland), and GE Vernova Hitachi Nuclear Energy (United States) signed a trilateral assessment- phase Memorandum of Understanding in Washington on 25-27 February 2026 to assess the prospects of deploying the BWRX-300 small modular reactor in Lithuania. The Authority shall coordinate with Altra and with the Ministry of Energy (Energetikos ministerija) on Corps-operated services in the event the assessment progresses to deployment, while remaining deliberate that the February 2026 MoU is an assessment instrument and not a deployment agreement.

FINDING 5 - NAUJOS KARTOS LIETUVA FUNDING ALREADY IN DEPLOYMENT. The Lithuanian Recovery and Resilience Plan, "Naujos kartos Lietuva," with a total €3.85 billion EU NextGenerationEU allocation (€2.3 billion grants + €1.55 billion loans), has already disbursed cumulative payments of approximately €2.26 billion as of January 2026, representing 58.7% of the total allocation. The Authority coordinates with the existing Naujos kartos Lietuva framework where consistent with the approved Lithuanian investment and reform lines.

FINDING 6 - REPLICATION THRESHOLD AND LITHUANIAN ENGINEERING CAPACITY. Replication-threshold humanoid robotic manufacturing technology arrived in Q4 2025 through Q2 2026 (see Verification Notes). Lithuania hosts engineering capacity at Vilnius University (founded 1579, the oldest university in the Baltic region), Kaunas University of Technology, Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Vytautas Magnus University, the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, and Klaipėda University, and a globally competitive laser-photonics sector. Lithuania is positioned to deploy this technology under Lithuanian productive- capacity infrastructure rather than to import the goods the technology will produce.

FINDING 7 - THE JANUARY EVENTS ANCHOR THE CITIZEN-SHAREHOLDER STRUCTURE. The January Events (Sausio įvykiai, 11-13 January 1991), in which Soviet OMON and Spetsnaz forces attacked Lithuanian state institutions in Vilnius and 14 unarmed Lithuanian civilians were killed defending the Vilnius Television Tower, the Seimas, and other critical infrastructure, established the living national-memory principle that Lithuanian sovereignty is defended by Lithuanian citizens collectively. The Personal Productive Asset entitlement under this Act is the modern operational expression of that principle: every Lithuanian citizen holds a non-transferable share in Lithuanian productive- capacity infrastructure, structurally inheriting the January Events' principle that the Republic is the common endeavour of its citizens.

FINDING 8 - DAINŲ ŠVENTĖ AND THE BALTIC WAY ANCHOR COOPERATIVE CAPACITY. The Lithuanian Song Festival (Dainų šventė), continuous since 1924, inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, mobilises tens of thousands of Lithuanian singers and dancers from every municipality. The Baltic Way of 23 August 1989, a 675-kilometre human chain organised in Lithuania by Sąjūdis and joining Vilnius, Riga, and Tallinn through approximately two million Estonian, Latvian, and Lithuanian citizens, demonstrated Baltic collective civic capacity at population scale. The Civic Robot Corps of Lithuania inherits the operational precedent of these traditions: structured citizen mobilisation at population scale, anchored on cooperative-cultural memory, sustained across generations.

FINDING 9 - THE LITHUANIAN COOPERATIVE TRADITION. The first Lithuanian consumer cooperative was founded in Vilnius in 1869. The Cooperative Societies Law was passed in 1919. The Lithuanian Cooperative Union (Lietuvos kooperatyvų sąjunga, "Lietkoopsąjunga") joined the International Cooperative Alliance in 1920. "Lietūkis" agricultural cooperative union was founded in 1923. The cooperative tradition was suppressed under Soviet rule and partially revived after 1991. The Authority and the Civic Robot Corps of Lithuania coordinate with this 156-year Lithuanian cooperative lineage rather than displacing it.

FINDING 10 - VYTAUTAS THE GREAT AND VINCAS KUDIRKA ANCHOR LITHUANIAN INSTITUTIONAL MEMORY. Vytautas the Great (Vytautas Didysis, c. 1350-1430), Grand Duke of Lithuania (1392-1430), presided over the Grand Duchy of Lithuania at its territorial peak from the Baltic to the Black Sea. Vincas Kudirka (1858-1899), physician and publisher of Varpas, authored the Tautiška giesmė in 1898 (the Lithuanian National Hymn, adopted 1919, re-adopted 1989). The Authority rests on the principle that Lithuanian collective capacity, demonstrated by Vytautas's institutional reach and Kudirka's national-cultural construction, is fully sufficient to operate productive-capacity infrastructure at the scale Lithuania requires.

ARTICLE 3. DECLARATIONS.

DECLARATION 1 - PERSONAL PRODUCTIVE ASSET ENTITLEMENT. The Seimas declares that every Lithuanian citizen ordinarily resident in the Republic of Lithuania, identified by Asmens kodas, shall enjoy as a matter of statutory right under this Act a Personal Productive Asset entitlement (Asmeninė Gamybinio Aktyvo Teisė) consisting of one non-transferable Productive Capacity Share, the annual distribution of dividends from inter-regional pooled productive-capacity revenue, and access to at-cost basic-needs goods produced by the Civic Robot Corps of Lithuania.

    Constitution.

DECLARATION 3 - NO NEW LITHUANIAN TAXATION. No new Lithuanian personal income tax (gyventojų pajamų mokestis, GPM), corporate income tax (pelno mokestis), value added tax (pridėtinės vertės mokestis, PVM), excise duty (akcizas), or other Lithuanian tax of any kind is established, extended, or increased by this Act.

DECLARATION 4 - MUNICIPAL AND COUNTY AUTONOMY RESPECTED. Nothing in this Act diminishes the constitutional and statutory autonomy of the 60 Lithuanian municipalities (savivaldybės) or the 10 counties (apskritys). The Regional Delivery Units under Title IV operate in coordination with, not in displacement of, municipal and county structures.

(2) The Corps operates replication-threshold robotic

    manufacturing equipment for at-cost basic-needs goods
    production and other service lines.

ARTICLE 18. SERVICE LINES.

The Corps shall operate:

(a) At-cost goods production and distribution (coordinating

    with the Food, Resource, and Commodity Assurance Programme
    under the sibling Lithuania Food Assurance Act);

(b) Eastern-frontier-priority distribution in Vilniaus, Alytaus,

TITLE VI - ENERGY SECURITY AND BALTIC SYNCHRO COORDINATION

ARTICLE 20. ENERGY SECURITY AS A CO-EQUAL MANDATE.

The Seimas declares that ENERGY SECURITY of the Republic of Lithuania is a co-equal Title of the Authority's mandate alongside productive capacity and the Civic Robot Corps. The structural reasons are:

(a) The 9 February 2025 Baltic Synchro disconnection from BRELL

    and synchronisation with the Continental Europe Synchronous
    Area (CESA), with the historic ceremony held in Vilnius,
    consolidated Lithuanian energy sovereignty; sustaining and
    extending those gains is a permanent national priority;

(b) The Klaipėda LNG terminal and the FSRU Independence,

    wholly owned by KN Energies AB since December 2024,
    constitute the Lithuanian natural-gas independence
    infrastructure; sustaining and extending the terminal's
    capacity is a national priority;

(c) The Altra-SGE-GVH BWRX-300 small modular reactor

    assessment-phase MoU of February 2026 establishes the
    Lithuanian nuclear-policy trajectory under post-Ignalina
    decommissioning conditions;

(d) NATO eastern-frontier security context requires energy

    resilience independent of any Russian-controlled
    infrastructure, including the Belarusian and Kaliningrad
    borders.

ARTICLE 21. IGNITIS GROUP COORDINATION.

(1) The Authority and Ignitis Group (AB Ignitis grupė) shall

    enter a Coordination Agreement within twelve months of the
    Authority's establishment, providing for Corps-operated
    deployment and maintenance services for Ignitis Group's
    renewable-energy portfolio, hydroelectric assets including
    the Kaunas Hydroelectric Power Plant and the Kruonis Pumped
    Storage Plant, and battery-energy-storage build-out
    including the 582 MWh Rolls-Royce BESS contracted September
    2025.

(2) The Authority does not direct, control, or modify Ignitis
