WHAT IS BALTICCONNECTOR?
Balticconnector is a gas pipeline connecting Finland and Estonia. It will link the Finnish and Baltic gas markets, enabling their integration with the EU’s common energy market. Furthermore, the construction of new gas infrastructure in the Baltic states will allow bi-directional gas transmission between Estonia and Latvia. Combined with Balticconnector, this infrastructure will provide Finland and Estonia with access to underground storage in Latvia to meet the market demand.
