This weekend, the #BalticStates #Estonia, #Latvia, and #Lithuania will disconnect from the #Brell power grid that has connected them to #Russia and #Belarus for the last 80 years. The will connect to the synchronous grid of Continental #Europe - the largest synchronous power grid in the world. This has been planned since 2018 and was affirmed by a decision of the #EU in 2023.

During the procedure,all power lines to the Russian grid will be severed. The Baltic States will become a power island for about one day. During this time, their regional grid will be synchronized to the Eurpean grid before it can be connected to it through a new power line between #Lithuania and #Poland.

The operation is not without risk. In addition to technical challenges, #sabotage from #Russia is expected. The Baltic States have set up their military to protect their critical power infrastructure over the weekend.

As a result of the process, #Kaliningrad will also be cut off from the Russian grid and become a power island for the foreseeable future.

Former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams on Francis Young's "Silence of the Gods: The Untold History of Europe’s Last Pagan Peoples ".

This book sounds like essential reading for anyone interested in paganism, neopaganism, and the beliefs and practices of those living between the Baltic and the Urals as they encountered Christians.
