6 FAQs about [Romania residential battery]

How much money will Romania get for battery storage projects?

The financial support in the form of direct grants was announced by the government in November 2022, reported by Energy-Storage.news at time, and will go towards at least 616MWh of battery storage projects. The European Commission has approved a €103 million state aid scheme from the government in Romania for battery storage projects.

Which energy storage technologies will not play a major role in Romania?

Other storage technologies, particularly those based on mechanical or kinetic energy, such as compressed air storage (CAES) and flywheels, will likely not play a major role in the Romanian energy sector in the short to medium-term and can, at most, be limited to niche applications requiring long-term storage.

Does Romania need a strategy for energy storage?

Based on the EU context and planning a significant uptake of renewable energy sources in its electricity mix over the following decades, Romania must also develop a strategy for the deployment of energy storage technologies.

Does Romania have a battery industry?

Presently, the only operational projects in the country are two BESS systems operated by Portugal's EDPR, with a total capacity of around 1.5 MWh. However, Romania has big battery manufacturing ambitions and plans to have a 2 GW battery industry by the end of 2025.

Does Romania have a storage policy?

In response to EU Regulation 2019/943, which clarifies the role of storage and its ownership status, the Romanian authorities transposed in Law 155/2020 (amending Energy Law 123/2012) specific provisions related to new storage facilities and their management rules.

What are some examples of energy security issues in Romania?

One example is Romania’s NECP, which at first did not address storage technology. The updated version of 2020 was marginally improved in this respect, listing ‘developing storage capacities’ as an instrument to improve energy security, but lacking detail on the storage capacity to be developed until 2030.
