Lithuania last week imported 81% of its electricity. Some 42% of its electricity imports came from Latvia, Estonia and Finland, 13% from Poland and the rest from third countries, the power transmission system operator said.
Electricity production from renewable sources in the Baltic countries declined last week compared with a week earlier, with the region's hydro power output down by 21% and wind power generation down by 29%.
Some 45% of the cross-border interconnection capacity between Lithuania and Latvia, and 41% of that between Lithuania and Belarus was used for importing electricity to Lithuania on Nov. 28 through Dec. 4 on average.
Three percent of the capacity of the Lithuania-Poland interconnection was used for the flow of electricity to Poland and 86% for the flow to Lithuania.
The utilization of the capacity of the NordBalt power interconnection between Sweden to Lithuania amounted to 15% in both directions.
