Latvian solar power generation system

From 1 January 2023 Latvia banned the import of natural gas from Russia. The replacement comes from connections to LNG terminals, the LNG terminal in Lithuania, and from 2024 the recently opened Inkoo LNG terminal in Finland. JSC Conexus Baltic Grid is the natural gas in Latvia. International transmission pipelines are 577 km long, consisting of the Riga–Pahneva, Pleskava–Riga, Izbors. [pdf]

FAQS about Latvian solar power generation system
