Romania has allocated EUR 80 million under its National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) for energy storage projects, which is expected to result in contracts for a total of 1.8 GW of capacity, according to Burduja. Romania has earmarked EUR 380 million to support energy storage projects
Electric power was provided by the Romanian Electric Power Corporation (CONEL). Energy sources used in electric power generation consisted primarily of nuclear, coal, oil, and liquefied natural gas (LNG). The country has two nuclear reactors, located at Cernavodă, generating about 18–20% of the country's electricity production.
Romania expects its overall energy storage to amount to at least 2.5 GW in operating power at the end of 2025, and to expand to as much as 5 GW a year later, local media reported, citing Minister of Energy Sebastian Burduja.
Romania’s energy strategy for 2025-2035, with projections up to 2050, provides a comprehensive roadmap for balancing energy security, affordability, and sustainability. By scaling renewables, enhancing infrastructure, and strengthening regional cooperation, Romania aims to solidify its role as a cornerstone of Europe’s energy ecosystem.
As part of its energy transition strategy, Romania is investing in storage technologies. Through the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), the Ministry of Energy has initiated battery storage projects with a total capacity of nearly 800 MWh. These initiatives aim to stabilise the grid and integrate intermittent renewable energy sources.
Leveraging its strategic location, abundant natural resources, and growing renewable energy sector, the country is bridging traditional and modern energy solutions. With bold projects underway and a keen focus on diversification, Romania’s contributions to the European energy transition are gaining prominence.
