through the yr, the quantity of electrical energy elevated by greater than a 3rd (VIDEO)

In Might, Latvia produced 37% extra electrical energy than a yr in the past, reaching 495 GWh, which is 37% lower than in April. However, electrical energy consumption remained on the similar degree as final yr and reached 537 GWh, which is 4% lower than in April. Typically, 99.6% of electrical energy in Latvia was produced from renewable vitality sources in Might, with solar energy stations making a big enhance, whereas solely 8% of the consumed electrical energy was produced in from neighboring nations, in response to Latvia’s evaluation. electrical energy market ready by Latvian transmission system operator AS “Augstsprieguma tīkls” (AST).

In Might, the numbers of electrical energy produced in Lithuania and Estonia confirmed the other pattern in comparison with Latvia. The quantity of electrical energy produced in Estonia elevated by 22%, and in Lithuania – by 1%. However, consumption in each nations, as in Latvia, decreased – in Lithuania by 6% and in Estonia by 12%.

As the quantity of manufacturing in pure fuel cogeneration stations decreased, in Might 99.6% of electrical energy in Latvia was produced from renewable vitality assets. On the similar time, Might this yr is the primary month when the steadiness of the electrical energy produced and consumed in Latvia is destructive and eight% or 42,364 MWh of the consumed electrical energy was taken in from neighboring nations.

The put in capability of solar energy crops continued to develop in Might, so the quantity of electrical energy produced by solar energy crops continued to develop, reaching a brand new document in Might – 61,729 MWh, which is 132% greater than in April and which made up 12.5 % of the full in Latvia of the quantity of electrical energy produced. In keeping with the modifications to the Electrical energy Market Legislation, the entry of recent members to the micro technology web accounting system ended on April 30 this yr, and the brand new web settlement system got here into impact on Might 1. In keeping with JSC “Sadales tīkls”, a registration exercise was noticed in April and virtually 2,150 new microgenerators have been related to the infrastructure of “Sadales tīkls”, the variety of functions is growing quickly, receiving greater than 1,000 functions new within the final week of April. .

The most important discount within the quantity of electrical energy produced is seen in hydroelectric energy crops, on the finish of the height, 381 MWh of electrical energy was produced, which is 43% lower than in April and 34% over a yr in the past.

It has already been reported that the common worth of electrical energy in all Baltic nations rose by 26% in Might 2024, reaching EUR 75.80 per megawatt hour (EUR/MWh) in Latvia. On the similar time, in Latvia, in comparison with Might 2023, the worth is 3% decrease. The rise in costs was attributable to a discount in electrical energy manufacturing, in addition to limitations in interstate transmission capability because of Estlink-2 restore work, so the worth of electrical energy in sure hours was confirmed by costlier native technology gives within the Baltics.

Regardless of the rise within the common worth of electrical energy, electrical energy costs within the Latvian buying and selling space have been under zero for 36 hours, because of excessive manufacturing of renewable vitality assets at a time when demand was considerably decreased.

In Might, a rise in common electrical energy costs was noticed within the Baltic States, though electrical energy costs have been reducing within the 4th zone in Finland and Sweden. In Latvia and Lithuania, the worth went as much as 75.80 EUR/MWh, in Estonia to 75.79 EUR/MWh, and in Finland and the 4th zone in Sweden costs went down, to 35.19 EUR/MWh and 43.49 EUR / MWh, respectively;

Evaluating the full quantity of electrical energy imported into the Baltic States this month with the earlier month, it has elevated by 7%. The amount of electrical energy imports has elevated by 25.8% from Poland and seven.2% from Sweden, whereas it has decreased by 4.4% from Finland.
