Synchronization of the Baltic Energy System with Europe

The Baltic states—Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania—are working to disconnect their electricity grids from the old Soviet-era system (BRELL), which links them to Russia and Belarus. They plan to synchronize with the European grid (ENTSO-E) by 2025. This will improve energy security, reduce dependence on Russia, and allow better integration of renewable energy. The project involves building new infrastructure, upgrading power lines, and installing synchronous condensers to stabilize the grid.
