6 FAQs about [Industrial energy storage systems Romania]
Can storage technologies improve energy security in Romania?
Such enhanced legislation is needed for implementing the Romanian National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP), which lists ‘developing storage capacities’ as an instrument to improve energy security but lacks detail on how storage technologies will be deployed until 2030.
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.
What is Romania's energy storage policy?
Energy Policy Group (2020), Romania’s Energy Storage: Assessment of Potential and Regulatory Framework, December 2020. The European Green Deal, with its flagship policy, the Climate Law, is set to enshrine into law the target of net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050.
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.
Is ETEs a viable solution for the Romanian energy sector?
With only one ETES large-scale facility currently operating in Hamburg, Germany, there is significant potential for replication. Versatility and scalability make ETES a solution for increased flexibility in the Romanian energy sector.
Can Romania Invest in clean generation technologies?
To be able to invest in clean generation technologies, the Romanian energy sector must first address its network adequacy issues. Several solutions ought to be considered, ranging from grid reinforcement and expansion, interconnections, storage, decentralised production, and software-based solutions — demand response, IoT, aggregators, etc.
