Where does our energy come from?

From nature, from friendship, from Latvia. Our story is about energy – inexhaustible, friendly, generated by our nature and people. Almost unnoticeable in everyday life, it is present in every moment of our lives. Where does this energy come from?

HPPs

The Daugava hydropower plants are like three pillars supporting energy generation in Latvia. They supply us all with environmentally friendly energy, skilfully harnessing the natural power of river waters and the cutting-edge technologies.

Did you know? The powerful waters of the Daugava drive the Pļaviņas, Ķegums and Riga hydropower plants, which together made almost 60% of all electricity generated in Latvia last year. This means that more than half of locally generated energy is greener than green!

CHPPs

How environmentally friendly is the energy produced by CHPPs? Very much so! Along with electricity generation, heat is also generated (so-called cogeneration), thus saving resources and warming not only the hearts of Latvia’s residents, but their homes as well!

Did you know? The electrical capacity of the TEC-1 and TEC-2 cogeneration plants is so great that it could simultaneously power more than one hundred million LED bulbs and illuminate each Latvian city!

Solar panels

Hundreds of our customers have already become producers of environmentally friendly energy without even leaving their homes! They say that even their morning cup of coffee now tastes twice as good. How is that possible? Because it is warmed not only by the kettle, but also by a sense of satisfaction.

Did you know? Across Latvia, almost five thousand Elektrum solar panels supply their owners with friendly solar energy every day. On a single sunny day, they can generate enough energy to drive an electric car around the equator!

If we are asked which is the city of wind, we say – Ainaži! The wind may be born in Liepāja, but it was in the Ainaži wind park where, for the first time in Latvia, it was transformed into energy capable to power your washing machine.

Did you know? Wind energy has been used in Latvia for more than 25 years. During this time, so much energy has been produced in Ainaži that it could supply 45,000 Latvian families or all the households in Liepāja for a year without worry.

How can you use energy even more efficiently?

Energy usage habits are just as important as the way it is generated. There are many small and large things you can do to use energy more wisely.
