The Baltic leaders and Poland have signed a long-awaited agreement to connect their grids to the EU grid by 2025 and break their dependence
on Russia.
By 2025, the Baltic power grid will switch from Russia to the EU system
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, once ruled by Moscow but members of the European Union and NATO since 2004, see the power grid connected to Russia as a threat
to national security.
The agreement will be signed
with EU President Jean-Claude Juncker during the EU Leaders' Summit.
The agreement ends years of wrangling between the three countries over how best to synchronize their power grids with the continental-synchronized regions of their Western partners and paves the way
for EU funding for the €1 billion project.
According to the agreement, the countries will use the existing overland transmission interconnection LitPol Link between Lithuania and Poland, as well as new undersea high-voltage DC cables
in the Baltic Sea.
A diplomat said the project, which will be confirmed in August, will cost about 560 million euros
.
Brussels will negotiate with Moscow how to maintain electricity supply in Kaliningrad, which is currently synchronized
with mainland Russia through the Baltic states.
The agreement proposes to connect Kaliningrad with two back-to-back converter stations
.
Russia has never cut off or threatened to cut off its power supply, but the three EU countries fear that Russia will point to a lack of transparency
in the grid.
Lithuania wants the Baltic states to test the ability to operate
independently from Moscow in June 2019 before officially switching the grid in 2025.
Systems in both Russia and continental Europe operate at 50 Hz, but are not synchronized
.
Russia's power grid starts from Moscow and is distributed everywhere
.
