@Baltics: Nuclear Energy – The way out of Russia @Baltics: Nuclear Energy – The way out of Russian Gas Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has compelled many of the nation’s buying oil and gas from the country to rethink their energy supply prospects. #Russia has been seeking to leverage its quasi-monopoly on oil and gas supplies in most of Europe to serve strategic and political ends. It has sought to retain favor by threatening to staunch its fossil fuel flow in order to arm-twist its dependents into diplomatic compliance.On 7th April, 93 countries including Latvia, Lithuania, and #Estonia, voted to suspend Russia from the Human Rights Council. After various blocks and sanctions were enacted by the three Baltic countries in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the world’s largest country has threatened strong retaliation, including but not limited to gas supply restrictions.Latvia and #Lithuania derive roughly half of their electricity from natural gas and are, in general, heavily dependent on Russia for meeting their energy needs. 41% of Lithuania’s gas and 93% of Latvia’s gas is sourced from Russia, according to data from the European Union. Lithuania’s gas reliance on Russia halved in five years, the apportionment in 2015 being 78%, but it still has a long way to go in terms of achieving some semblance of energy diversification and independence.Further, #Latvia and #Estonia are among the handful of countries still burning peat for energy. Peat is the least matured, lowest-grade form of coal. Comprising of partially decomposed plant matter, peat produces a high amount of carbon dioxide, compared to higher grades of coal and other fossil fuels. The carbon footprint of its usage is threefold – its extraction causes loss of carbon-fixing vegetation while also exposing the drained bogs to the atmosphere, rendering them as carbon sources, and its combustion adds a substantial amount of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere...
