A hybrid solar system is more expensive than conventional on-grid and off-grid systems. However, investing in a hybrid solar system reduces your electricity bills and supplies interrupted power supply. The price of a 1kW hybrid solar system in India is expected to be around ₹ 1,00,000. It can also go up to ₹15,00,000 for 20kW.
Overview of solar PV developments Following a period of lull, Romania has achieved in 2023 a significant milestone in its renewable energy journey – over 1 GW of new solar capacity installed in one year between distributed generation and utility scale projects.
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.
Therefore, for Romania to tap into its full solar potential, the market will require a stable and supportive framework that can foster innovation, investment, and competitiveness in the long term. This article is part of SolarPower Europe’s EU Market Outlook for Solar Power 2023-2027.
As Romania continues to develop its renewable energy sector, the Solarplaza Summit Romania PV & Storage 2025 is the ideal platform for those looking to advance their business in this burgeoning market. Whether you are a developer, investor, or service provider, this event offers the insights, strategies, and connections necessary to succeed.
National targets for solar PV With an average of 1,900 to 2,400 annual sunlight hours, Romania has significant natural potential for solar PV development. Yet, the country has not set ambitious targets for renewable energy sources, aiming for only 30.7% of its final energy consumption to come from RES by 2030.
