Why do we need a battery system in Latvia?
The battery system is an essential infrastructure element for the security and stability of Latvia’s energy supply. The batteries will work as modern accumulators for storing large volumes of energy, which will be important for ensuring energy balance once the Latvian electricity supply grid works in sync with the European grid.”
Are new wind farms a good investment for Latvia's energy security?
I am pleased that the bar has been set high for developers of new wind farms, which also plays an important role in the context of Latvia’s energy security,” said Climate and Energy Minister of Latvia, Kaspars Melnis. Given the total investment in the project, the OP Corporate Bank provided loan financing.
How will Latvenergo improve the security of supply?
The innovations and infrastructure of Latvenergo will not only strengthen the security of supply but also the development of the Baltic region.” BESS, or Battery Energy Storage System, is a technology that allows electricity to be stored with the objective of feeding it back into the grid at times of peak demand.
