In short: BalticGrid is in place and continues to deliver without interruption.
What's next? In parallel with keeping the quality and capacity of BalticGrid in place, we will continue to pursue the goal to involve industry. We have since the start of 2009 been experimenting with many industry related actives - through BalticCloud, BalticGrid Innovation Lab as well as many local initiatives. The results from these experiments are reflected in projects outside our region, and will now come handy for our future planning.
