Electricity prices in Nord Pool's Lithuanian bidding area averaged 27.4 euros per megawatt-hour (MWh), the lowest average weekly level in the market since 2018, on December 30-January, down by 41% compared with the first week of 2019, it said.
Prices in Estonia and Latvia fell by 24% w-o-w, too. Across the Nord Pool system, the average price went down by 18%.
The Lithuanian power transmission system operator attributed the decline in the Baltic electricity prices to a sharp increase in wind power generation, the continuing holiday period, and a general downward trend across the region.
The three Baltic countries' total power consumption rose by 2% to 539 gigawatt-hours (GWh). Their electricity production covered 60% of their needs.
