Despite the obvious interest in renewable power investments, 2021 will most likely end with no new major finalized project. The first green energy sites are expected to open in 2022.

In line with ZF data based on Transelectrica public information, wind and solar power projects with a capacity of around 550 MW were greenlighted in October alone. Should these materialize, they could attract investments of around EUR410 million.

At present, there’s installed capacity of above 5,100 MW nationwide in green energy projects.

According to information from the most powerful players in the field, 2022 will be the first year to see Romania install new green energy projects. The first renewable energy wave came in 2009-2014.
