Bulgaria has significantly increased its energy storage capacity, becoming a key electricity exporter in the Balkans, while Romania faces energy supply challenges. The installed battery capacity in Bulgaria doubled to 6 gigawatts, supported by European funds and private investments. This expansion has allowed Bulgaria to export electricity, particularly during periods of high demand, benefiting neighboring countries like Romania, which has struggled with domestic production due to drought. Bulgaria's success in energy storage has outpaced Greece, despite Greece's investments in solar energy. However, Bulgaria must modernize its electrical grid and diversify revenue sources to address future challenges.
