6 FAQs about [Latvia energy storage and release]
Does Latvia have a gas storage facility?
Gas Storage Latvia owns the only functioning gas storage facility in the Baltic States, the Inčukalns underground storage facility (2.47 bcm), and has a key role in ensuring its security of supply. This facility is undergoing enhancement works expected to be completed by 2025, which aims to increase the working gas volume to 2.8 bcm.
How much gas storage does Latvia have in 2022?
Latvia fulfilled its gas storage obligations last winter, reaching 57.7% by 1 November 2022 (around 38 percentage points above its legal obligation), and ended the heating season with a filling gas storage at 40.12% by 2 May 2023.

How has Latvia managed to unlink its energy dependency from Russia?
Overall, Latvia has made considerable progress in unlinking its energy dependency from Russian imports in a short period of time, including by imposing bans on the import of electricity and natural gas from Russia in 2023. The government is also changing its storage model for oil reserves to further fortify its oil security.
Which energy sources are used in Latvia?
Latvia has underground gas storage facilities at the Inčukalns UGS, with a capacity of 4.47 billion m 3. Natural gas companies include Latvijas Gāze. 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.
Will electricity be the cornerstone of Latvia's energy transition?
Electricity will be the cornerstone of Latvia’s energy transition. Latvia’s hydro-dominated electricity system provides a favourable starting point to use clean electricity to decarbonise other economic sectors and meet the target of 57% renewables in total final consumption by 2030.
Can Latvia achieve energy savings by renovating its building stock?
Latvia could achieve considerable energy savings by renovating its building stock. Latvia holds considerable potential to accelerate energy efficiency outcomes in the buildings sector, which will go a long way toward meeting climate targets and lowering energy bills.
