Technical FAQs 4

When will battery energy storage systems be installed in Latvia?

The most recent update regarding BESS installations is that in Tume and Rēzekne, Latvia’s transmission system operator “Augstsprieguma tīkli” (AST) in June 2025 installed battery energy storage systems with a combined capacity of 80 MW and 160 MWh, which will undergo testing until October 2025.

Does Latvia have solar energy?

So far, however, the development of solar energy in the country has been rather limited. According to Latvia’s grid-operator Sadales tīkls AS, which is a subsidiary of Latvenergo, there was just1.3 MW of renewable energy power installed under net metering at the end of 2016.

Who is responsible for the energy transition in Latvia?

Local authorities are responsible for municipal energy supply and renewable energy projects, with Latvia’s energy transition guided by the National Energy and Climate Plan and the Energy Strategy 2050.

What is Latvia's first storage battery system?

In November 2024, Utilitas Wind Ltd inaugurated Latvia’s first storage battery system with a capacity of 10 MW and 20 MWh in Targale, next to the existing wind park.
