According to Nita, Romania may export between 2,000 and 3,000 megawatts of electricity but lacks enough electric lines to transport electricity to its neighbors.
“We can’t export electricity to the Republic of Moldova because we lack the needed infrastructure. Romania must widen its interconnecting system to be able to export to Europe,” Nita added.
At about 11:10 local time (GMT0910), Romania’s electricity production was 8,307 megawatts and consumption was at 7,500 MWs.
Electricity consumption in Romania fell about 7% this year.
