Helping to make this ambition a reality is the Implementation of Baltic Synchronisation Project. The project is delivering the technology needed to fully synchronise the Baltic states’ electricity system with the CEN, allowing them to fully disconnect from Russia and Belarus. Highlights include building multiple 330 kilovolt internal lines and substations, installing synchronous condensers as well as batteries, and upgrading IT systems in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland.
