Romania faces the highest electricity prices in the EU, driven by structural issues in its energy market. Despite being a potential energy producer, the country struggles with inadequate storage capacity and outdated infrastructure. This situation leads to high costs for consumers and businesses, exacerbated by reliance on imports during peak demand. Recent data shows a significant price increase, with Romania's electricity reaching 272.57 euros/MWh. Authorities' temporary measures have not alleviated the financial burden on the population, raising concerns about future energy affordability.
