The company said this in reaction to a statement by a Rosatom official that LitPol Link could be used for electricity exports from Russia's planned Kaliningrad nuclear power plant.
"Reserving the Lithuanian-Polish interconnection for one or another commercial project is out of the question. LitPol Link is an infrastructural connection and all of its installed capacity will be used for trade under market conditions. Any entity willing to use the interconnection will have to trade on the power exchange, which will allocate capacities among market participants," Liudas Liutkevičius, the director of the Strategy Department at Litgrid, told BNS.
Sergey Boyarkin, the engineering projects director at Russia's nuclear energy giant Rosatom, which is building the Baltic Nuclear Power Plant in Kaliningrad, has said that electricity could be exported from the Russian exclave to Poland not only via a direct link with Poland, but also via LitPol Link.
