Russia's Electricity Exports Edge Lower Over First Eight Months of 2024
State-run operator Inter RAO reported a mixed picture, with exports rising and imports falling in the first half of the year, according to TASS.
Russia's electricity exports declined slightly over the first eight months of the year, according to a report by the state news agency TASS.
The report cited data from Inter RAO, Russia's state-controlled electricity trading company, which said its exports increased by 4% to 3.2 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) in the first half of the year.
At the same time, Inter RAO reduced its electricity imports by 5.3% to 1.2 billion kWh during the same six-month period, TASS reported.
The figures suggest a shift in the balance of Russia's cross-border electricity trade, with exports rising even as the country imported less power from abroad.
TASS did not provide additional details on the destinations of the exported electricity or the sources of imports in the report.
Further specifics on the full eight-month figures for overall national exports, as opposed to Inter RAO's six-month data, were not elaborated upon in the available report.
