NRJ Lebanon was a radio station founded in 2006 by Jyad (Jihad El Murr) which is also part of the RML Group. NRJ Lebanon had one main frequency in Lebanon which is FM 99.1.

NRJ Lebanon targets young audience, trendy and up to date in music, NRJ programs are mainly in English with major British presenters, except for few live shows from NRJ France and some interviews made by NRJ France for international artists.

Since the pandemic, the radio station had bad signal, looping songs, unchanged playlists for unknown reasons which led to the disappearance of the station without any notice. As of 2023, the frequency either has no signal or receives a station broadcasting Islamic content. The TV channel, which used to be called NRJ Hits is now just called Hits TV and is not well maintained. Its sister Nostalgie is still broadcasting and is still producing concerts and events in Lebanon.

As of 2024, the station got replaced by One FM, which is also owned by Murr. It plays Arabic music and targets a different audience.
