Baltic electricity network desynchronization attempt could happen in summer 2019
It will be difficult but possible to carry out the attempt to isolate the
Baltic electricity system if the necessary technical suggestions are taken into
account, the summary of Tractebel's
study said. During the attempt it is important to pay attention to the level of
the maximum energy need and the minimal production capacity rates.
No significant legal or regulatory restrictions for the execution of the
attempt were identified.
The survey recommends that the desynchronization attempt be carried out in
summer 2019 during an 18-hour window from 10 p.m. to 4 p.m. the next day.
Tractebel Engineering S.A. carried out the study from January to August. The study was
commissioned by the Lithuanian electricity transmission operator Litgrid, Latvian electricity
transmission operator AST and
Estonian electricity transmission operator Elering.
The study analyzed the technical, legal and economical impacts of the
desynchronization of the electricity network.
