Other Romania-based companies, such as Parapet and Waldevar Energy, have told pv magazine that adding BESS to their renewable assets is a top priority. The May edition of pv magazine features an in-depth look at Romania’s solar and energy storage markets.
The BESS market in Romania is heating up, say local analysts and insiders. Irene Mihai, policy officer at the Romanian Photovoltaic Industry Association (RPIA) recently told pv magazine that a realistic target for the utility-scale BESS segment in Romania “would be around 2 GWh (around 1 GW of installed capacity)” for 2030.
Specifically, Romania allocated EUR 80 million (USD 87m) under its National Recovery and Resilience Plan for an energy storage programme expected to award 1.8 GW of capacity. Submitted projects as part of the scheme are being assessed and contracts are due to be signed in September.
The project would be many times larger than the largest BESS online in Romania today, a 6MW/24MWh system from developer and independent power producer (IPP) Monsson (Premium access article).
External Factors that influence the ROI of a BESS The cost of electricity, including peak and off-peak rates, significantly impacts the ROI. Energy storage systems can store cheaper off-peak energy for use during expensive peak periods.
The cost of electricity, including peak and off-peak rates, significantly impacts the ROI. Energy storage systems can store cheaper off-peak energy for use during expensive peak periods. Subsidies, tax credits, and rebates offered by governments can enhance the financial attractiveness of ESS installations.
