Energy Efficiency: The Commission highlighted the need for clearer quantification of energy savings across sectors. Romania's updated NECP targets a final energy consumption of 22.47 Mtoe by 2030. The primary energy consumption target is set at 30.2 Mtoe, with new projections showing a reduction to 28.4 Mtoe
Based on the Directive's percentages and the 2020 RES share in the industry sector, the target for Romania for 2030 is 14.1%. Biomass consumption is projected to increase by 50% compared to 2020 levels, and hydrogen is expected to reach almost 4% share by 2030. However, these measures alone will only achieve an 8.2% RES share.
To achieve this enhanced flexibility, Romania's government has set a specific target of installing 1200 MW of battery storage capacity by 2030, with potential for storage of 2400 MWh and 2000 MW by 2035.
The government of Romania has taken a number of steps to reduce the cost of electricity for consumers. These steps include: Subsidizing the cost of electricity for low-income households. Introducing a renewable energy surcharge, which is used to fund the development of renewable energy projects.
The old 2030 target for the LULUCF sector was 34,412 kt CO2, highlighting the major updates and adjustments made in the current GHG inventory, which can be the case with the next inventory too. Overall, the projections show that in 2030 Romania will be 4% below the targeted sinks (Figure 12). Figure 12.
As electricity is the dominant energy source and plays a crucial role in energy security, special attention is focused on electricity generation in the next part of this chapter. In the WEM scenario for Romania, electricity consumption is projected to increase steadily from 55.5 TWh in 2022 to 98.8 TWh by 2050 (Figure 96).
