For a country to be able to survive successfully, one of the criteria is a stable electric power supply that meets certain technical parameters. In the European Union, several countries are working synchronously to ensure the safety of electricity systems.

The present article develops a model to assess the compliance of generators with the requirements of the Regulation, as well as conducts economic analysis to assess which generators need investment and whether their use will provide economic benefits. In this way, the state can create a priority list, where generators are divided according to their socio-economic benefits. In 2025, the Baltic States plan to become integrated into the Energy Systems Association of Continental Europe and work synchronously with the other European Union countries, disconnected from the current BRELL energy systems.
