Lithuania prepares to dismantle power lines with Russia and Belarus

Lithuania will disconnect power lines in the direction of Russia and Belarus in February and then dismantle them, local outlet LRT reports, citing Lithuanian transmission system operator Litgrid.

All lines will be disconnected on February 8, 2025, when the agreement on a joint electricity system between Russia, Belarus and the Baltic states expires.

“Dismantling work will begin immediately after that,” Litgrid reported in a comment to BNS.

As grid synchronization with continental Europe approaches, the Lithuanian government on Wednesday removed seven 330-kilovolt power lines leading to Russia and Belarus from the list of assets and facilities important to national security.

The Baltic grids are expected to be synchronized with the grids of continental Europe on February 9.

A day earlier, on February 8, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia will disconnect from the Russian system and conduct a single joint test of isolated operation, after which they will not return to the old system.
