Latvia — Energy Infrastructure

OverWatts maps 43 energy assets in Latvia across 7 layers — the 91st-largest mapped base of 157 countries. They include 27 power plants, 6 export terminals and 4 pipelines. Operating generation capacity is 2.7 GW, led by hydro at 56%.

The companies named on the most assets are Latvenergo AS (8), Vindr Latvia SIA (5) and JSC Conexus Baltic Grid (4), counting both ownership and operatorship. Half of Latvia's mapped assets in service predate 2005 (median commissioning year of the 13 with a known date), 3 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Broceni Cement Plant, dating from 1938. 23 projects are under construction or proposed, led by Elwind wind farm (Latvia) (1.0 GW).
