“The strategy for 2011-2035, which only addressed the electricity aspects, will be amended to include crude oil and gas. We hope to publish the full document by the end of October, and begin public debates,” Sandulescu said.

The document was initially published by the ministry in June. Its main provisions say electricity will mainly come from nuclear power plants and wind farms. In addition, the document shows that Romania will depend on energy imports, and increased demand will be achieved through the use of renewable sources and through the import of gas, crude oil, coal and nuclear fuel.

Romania’s current energy strategy was completed in 2007 and it refers to the 2007-2020 interval.
