On the other thread someone wrote that the Baltic countries pay over 20 cents per kW, while Russian electricity is just 5 cents.

What is the point you're trying to make with this? Majority of the cost of electricity in the Baltics come from taxes and distribution fees – these well exceed 5 cents by themselves – just like elsewhere in the EU. None of the Baltic countries actually trade electricity with Belarus or Russia for quite some time either, so if there is an effect on prices due to synchronizing with the EU infrastructure, it is going to be minimal. In fact the spot market price already follows the capacity in Sweden & Finland quite closely.

As another data point, the electricity price was already ~16 cents/kWh 10 years ago and ~12c/kWh in 2009. High despite trading with Russia being a thing back then.

Those 5 cents are enough to murder thousands of people in Ukraine and put target on yourself.

Baltics are next if putin isn’t destroyed.

And? So? Do you think we should want to be part of russia now?

We will happily pay a bit more to get as far away from russia as possible.

Also, our prices include taxes, subsidies for renewables, the co2 scheme payments and so on.
