Power transmission lines with Russia and Belarus will be disconnected in February next year as part of the synchronisation of the Baltic energy systems with Western Europe and will be dismantled afterwards, the Lithuanian electricity transmission system operator Litgrid has said.

"All the lines will be disconnected on February 8, 2025, when the BRELL agreement ... expires. Dismantling work will start immediately afterwards," Litgrid told BNS in a comment.

the government on Wednesday removed seven 330-kilovolt links with Russia and Belarus from the list of assets and facilities important for national security.

The Baltic networks are expected to be synchronised with continental European networks on February 8 next year.

The Baltic TSOs informed Russia and Belarus back in July about the non-renewal of the BRELL contract and their withdrawal from it as of February 2025.
