Strategy of Energy Development 2006-2016
 On June 27, 2006 adopted Regulations of the Cabinet of Ministers
Strategy of Energy Development:
– Strategy sets the basic principles to secure self-sufficient energy supply in Latvia until
2016
– 1236.32 Mio. LVL (1759 Mio. EUR) are foreseen for implementation,
– Greater self-sufficiency in electricity – up to 80 % 2012 und up to 100 % until 2016,
– Estimated capacity to be installed according to the Strategy – at least 700 MW,
– Use of CHP potential – 300 MWth in the big cities of Latvia, and 100 MWth – in other
cities of Latvia

Strategy of Energy Development 2006-2016
 The Strategy has following aims:
-
to improve security of energy supply,
to increase self-sufficiency of electricity generation
to increase self-sufficiency in primary energy,
to diversify energy supply in primary energy (to create support for Distributed
Energy Resources),
- to remove all barriers for better development of energy market in the Baltic
States
 The Strategy is important:
- to provide better access to energy for inhabitants,
- to elaborate infrastructure for energy supply
- to carry out measures of energy efficiency

Latvian Renewable Energy Strategy 2006–2013
 Latvian Renewable Energy Strategy 2006-2013 has following
objectives:
– to increase the share of RES in total energy balance of Latvia
– to promote safety of energy supply in Latvia
– to carry out measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
 In accordance with Latvian Renewable Energy Strategy 20062013 it is necessary:
– to install new wind generators with capacity 135 MW,
– to install new biomass and biogas plants with capacity 78 MW,
– to use biomass additionally also for combined heat and power
generation – 3 MW,
– to install new small hydro power plants with capacity – 2.5 MW.

The share of small HPS and wind generators in total
electricity supply (2005)
 Small hydro power stations produced 58 GWh
 Wind generators – 46 GWh
 Considering that the average consumption for 1 day in
Latvia 2005 – 19.32 GWh:
– produced energy from small HPS – sufficient for 3 days,
– produced energy from wind generators – sufficient for 2.4 days.

Current trends
 Starting from year 2000 electricity demand in Latvia has grown
between 4–5%, but 2006 – even 7.1%.
 The average energy consumption per inhabitant in Latvia 2005 – less
that a half of average energy consumption in western Europe.

Possible scenarios
Full closing of the second
reactor in Ignalina 2009
Purchase of energy from
foreign energy companies
Production of electricity in
Latvia
Problem – Lithuania,
Estonia and Russia will
have their own needs of
installed capacity and will
not import energy to Latvia
in sufficient amount
Urgent need for new
projects in Latvia in order
to install the necessary
capacity
INSTITUTE OF PHYSICAL ENERGETICS
Possible scenarios
EU Directive 2001/77/EC (2003) and Law on Electricity Market
(2005) defines – the share of renewable energy sources in energy
production – 49.3 % until 2010, i.e., additionally installed RES
stations with annual production of 1400 GWh
Balanced development –
incl. use of RES, coal power
station 400 MW in Kurzeme
(western part of Latvia) and
nuclear power plant (the
share of Latvia – 400 MW)
Installing of wind generators with total capacity
approx. 1500 MW and other
1500 MW for balance and
security of energy supply
until 2025
