Starting in January 2026, Romania will introduce fundamental changes to the procedure for connecting energy installations to the grid. This reform applies to power generation and storage facilities (BESS)
About 15% of the final consumption of energy in Romania is consumed as electricity. [1] In accordance with EU directives and climate control ambitions, additional effort and money was put into improving
Investing in the power grid development represents a critical opportunity for Romania to modernise its energy infrastructure, enhance grid resilience, and drive economic growth.
This study will assess both the transmission grid (above 110 kV) and the distribution grid (110 kV and medium voltage). The actual tenders are expected to commence from 30 October 2026, organised
The new rules impose stricter requirements on developers seeking to connect projects to the Romanian power grid, impacting both current and future developments.
Romania aims to stabilize its grid with a massive investment. Private company MASS Group Holding plans to invest over €1 billion (~$1.18 billion) in large-scale battery energy storage

About 15% of the final consumption of energy in Romania is consumed as electricity. In accordance with EU directives and climate control ambitions, additional effort and money was put into improving renewable energy sources. The target of 24% renewable energy was reached in 2020. Since the 2022 Russian Invasion of Ukraine the need to strengthen and diversify sources of electricity was given a boost. A target of 30.7% renewable energy generation has been set, to be achieved by 2
As listed in Table 1, there are two major power line projects, which are both in northern and northeastern Romania, and are expected to enhance the capacity of the Romanian transmission electricity grid
