There is a sufficient gas quantity available for this heating season. In the next three months there is nothing to worry about at all. Work is currently in progress to ensure natural gas injection in summer for the next heating season. The possibility of not receiving gas is out of question – in one way or another, Latvia will receive gas in the summer season.
Currently, the JSC “Latvijas Gāze” has sufficient natural gas reserves at the Inčukalns Underground Gas Storage Facility to continue supplying natural gas to households and market customers under the effective contracts without disruption.
In light of the situation having arisen in the energy sector and the sanctions imposed by the USA and the European Union – the energy sector, as far as the supply of energy resources to consumers is concerned, is not included in the overall package of sanctions.
Latvijas Gāze supplies customers with natural gas, which is the most convenient and environmentally friendly traditional fuel for consumers. At times, when environmental aspects are playing an important role in our decision-making, Latvijas Gāze has developed an environmental policy that identifies initiatives that promote greater responsibility for the environment, as well as the development and spread of environmentally friendly technologies.
As of 1st of January 2022, Latvijas Gāze has been included at the GOLD level of the In-depth Cooperation Programme.
The history of the gas supply of Latvia goes back more than 150 years, but the company as it is known today was established 30 years ago, after Latvia regained its independence.
