Energy Storage Revolution: How Riga is Leading the Charge in

As we approach Q4 2025, Riga''s storage capacity is projected to triple, potentially eliminating the need for one natural gas peaker plant entirely. Now that''s what we call powering progress!

List of power stations in Latvia

There are currently a total of 23 operational biogas power stations and seven biomass power stations in Latvia. Most of them are cogeneration stations.

Riga-2 power station

Riga-2 power station is an operating power station of at least 881-megawatts (MW) in Salaspils, Riga, Latvia. It is also known as Riga CHPP-2 power station.

LATVIA LATVENERGO LAUNCHES TENDER FOR BATTERY ENERGY STORAGE AT RIGA

Battery storage, or battery energy storage systems (BESS), are devices that enable energy from renewables, like solar and wind, to be stored and then released when the power is needed most.

Riga energy storage power station

The project is mainly invested by State Grid Integrated Energy and CATL, which is the largest single grid-side standalone station-type electrochemical energy storage power station in China

Riga Hydroelectric Power Plant

The Riga Hydroelectric Power Plant was put into operation in 1974. In order to build Riga HES, a dam was constructed across the Daugava River through the middle of Doles Sala, half of which has since been flooded to make room for Riga Reservoir. Along with Doles Sala, several other smaller islands also drowned when the reservoir was filled. The dam was built in the late 1970s. Aside from its main purpose of keeping the reservoir contained, its top is used as a motor vehicle highway. A
