Romania has set ambitious targets for developing renewable energy sources, including solar power. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of large-scale PV projects in Romania, covering project details, readiness levels, key players, and the overall impact on the energy sector and the environment.
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 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 new solar installations, equating to a 308% increase compared to the capacity deployed the previous year, have set a new record high since the early 2010sā surge in renewable energy. Solar PV is now the fastest-growing power source in the country.
With the addition of 297 MW in utility-scale projects installed between Q1 and Q3 2023, the centralized PV capacity reached 1.6 GW, accounting for 28% of the total solar installed capacity this year (see Fig. GW 13).
During the fourth quarter of 2023, the number of prosumer households, firms and institutions exceeded 80,000, totaling an installed power capacity of nearly 1.2 GW, with the residential sector accounting for over 85% of the total installations. National targets for solar PV
