Regulation, financing, technology and ESG — applied perspectives for investors, developers and prosumers across the Romanian solar market.
Applied technical content: the regulatory framework, the financing instruments and the technologies relevant to PV projects.
By the end of 2025, Romanian prosumers had installed between 600 and 800 MW of distributed storage — a capacity comparable to the country's entire centralized capacity, yet invisible to the national energy system.
Read moreDirective (EU) 2024/1275 entered into force on 28 May 2024 and defines a new mandatory minimum standard — the zero-emission building (ZEB), which becomes the legal norm for any new building constructed after 1 January 2030.
