History
Its predecessor, the Lithuanian Power Company, was a wholly state-owned enterprise that owned and operated all electrical and heating businesses in Lithuania apart from Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant. Privatization took place in 1997, when 86.5% of the shares went to the government, 8.5% to its workers, and 5% to the Swedish company Vattenfall.[4]
After dissolution of LEO LT in 2010, the state-owned group of electricity companies operated as the Visaginas Nuclear Power Plant.[5]
On September 2012, the transmission system operator Litgrid and the electricity market operator Baltpool were separated from Lietuvos energija and spun off to the state-owned company EPSO-G.[6]
On 30 August 2013, Group parent company UAB Visagino Atominė Elektrinė has changed its name to Lietuvos Energija, UAB.[7]
