Lithuania has disconnected all of its connections to the Russian electricity grid for the first time. According to the Lithuanian operator Litgrid, the grid of the Baltic country will be operated completely independently for the first time in its history during the 10-hour trial disconnection. The electricity needed during this time will come exclusively from domestic sources or be imported from Sweden and Poland. Lithuania said it had completely stopped energy imports from Russia last year. However, like Estonia and Latvia, it is still part of a synchronized electricity grid with Russia and Belarus dating back to the Soviet era.
