RIGA, Nov. 1 (Xinhua) -- Renewable energy company Utilitas Wind on Friday inaugurated the largest battery energy storage system (BESS) in Latvia to date, local media reported. Installed at the Targale wind farm in Latvia''s western municipality of Ventspils, the system can store up to 20 MWh and dispatch up to 10 MW of electricity.
The energy storage system integrator''s European policy and markets director added that the door could be open for much more LDES in the proposed second tranche of Power Plant Safety Act procurements. While the 5GW was originally earmarked to be awarded to gas plants, BMWK has been directed to include a technology-neutral approach.

European Energy has begun constructing Latvia''s largest solar farm, boasting a capacity of 148 MW and featuring 240,000 solar panels. The solar farm will produce around 154,550 MWh annually to power approximately 40,000 households, supporting Latvia''s energy independence and renewable energy goals.
Renewable energy includes wind, solar, biomass and geothermal energy sources. Almost half of the electricity used in the country is provided by renewable energy sources. The main renewable resource is hydroelectric power. Latvia has laws that regulate the building of power plants and plans to sell electricity at higher prices. This is a stimulus for investment, especially taking into
This new energy storage system has a capacity of 20 MWh, enabling the park to store surplus energy generated during periods of high wind and supply it back to the grid when needed. The

The synchronisation of the Baltic states with continental Europe in 2025 creates the need for balancing reserve capacity. In the opinion of AS Augstsprieguma tīkls (AST), to ensure the availability of reserves, it is necessary to purchase electricity storage facilities, the acquisition of which was approved by the Cabinet of Ministers on 21 September 2021.
As of 2023, Estonia''s solar power capacity reached 822MW, Lithuania''s 1165MW, and Latvia''s 500MW. European Energy''s executive vice president and head of project development, Thorvald Spanggaard, highlighted the country''s renewable energy targets: "According to the Latvian National Energy and Climate Plan, the share of renewable
