Baltic and Polish TSOs applied for CEF funding for synchronisation investments
Baltic and Polish TSOs applied for CEF funding for synchronisation investments
Transmission system operators from the Baltic States: Litgrid (Lithuania), AST (Latvia), Elering (Estonia) and from Poland (PSE), today submitted a joint application for funding from the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF). Four TSOs request a financial support for the investments of Baltic Synchronisation project Phase 2 part II which are crucial for secure and stable synchronisation of Baltic power systems with the Continental European Synchronous Area and desynchronization from the Russian unified power system. The sources will be spent for grid reinforcements, frequency regulation equipment and upgrade of IT control systems.
