This market report offers an incisive and reliable overview of the photovoltaic (solar PV) sector of the country for the period 2023 - 2032..
Here are some considerations based on this research. Romania has made significant strides in developing large‐scale photovoltaic (PV) projects, contributing to its renewable energy goals. As of the latest data available, there are over 880 large‐scale PV projects in Romania, boasting a cumulative capacity of approximately 46,600 MW.
In the context of the European ambitions, Romania would need to aim for 44.4% RES, meaning 11.1 GW of solar - 6.1 GW for utility-scale and 5 GW for rooftop PV1. Drivers for solar growth The last two years have been marked by significant legislative changes that underpinned the development of the Romanian PV sector.
The Monitor of Romanian Photovoltaic Projects is a tool ofering thorough summaries of large‐ scale PV projects happening all over the country. However, there are some issues that need to be carefully thought through because they could have an efect on many diferent groups of people.
The data shows that 2024 and 2025 might witness a surge in the completion of large‐scale photovoltaic (PV) projects in Romania, with over 400 projects expected to contribute significantly to the country's goals. Their total capacity is estimated at 30.5 GW. Obviously, this is the trickiest area in this report.
The Romanian PV market has entered a new boom phase, driven by the current security context, the imperative of green transition, and the favorable permitting framework. As the country moves towards decarbonization and the large-scale adoption of clean technologies, the outlook for the future of PV points to sustained development.
The landscape of large‐scale PV projects in Romania encompasses a wide range of installed capacities, catering to diverse energy needs and project objectives. By categorizing these projects based on their installed capacity, we gain insights into the scale and scope of solar energy deployment in the country.
