Results of Lietuvos Energijos Gamyba for 3 months of 2018 - 3 percent increase in generation of electricity and revenue
According to her, a significant drop in air temperatures in February and March created favourable conditions for the activities of all the power plants owned by the Company, especially for the sale of electricity which they generated. As a result, the demand for electricity increased significantly on the exchange. In presence of such a situation, the market also felt the need for the combined cycle unit in Elektrėnai. During the very cold period, the unit produced electricity for almost two days, also ensuring the provision of the tertiary reserve service necessary for the energy system.
During the 3 months of 2018, a total of 250 GWh was generated in the power plants of the Company and sold, which is 3 percent more than in the 3 months of 2017 (242 GWh). Kaunas Algirdas Brazauskas' Hydroelectric Power Plant having taken advantage of the very watery first months of the year generated the most electricity – 134 GWh, which is almost 1 percent more than in the 3 months of 2017, when it generated 132 GWh electricity. Electricity generation in the Kruonis PSP also increased in the first three months of 2018 and was 108 GWh, which is almost 4 percent more than in the first 3 months of 2017 (104 GWh). The combined cycle unit in the Elektrėnai complex generated 8 GWh electricity (compared to 6 GWh in the 3 months of 2017).
