Two legislative initiatives have been proposed in Romania to allow apartment residents to install solar panels on balconies and rooftops for personal use. The proposals aim to democratize solar energy access for over 6.5 million Romanians living in apartment buildings. The first initiative simplifies the installation of balcony solar kits, requiring only a notification to the distribution operator, while ensuring safety and compliance with European standards. The second initiative allows residents to collectively use rooftop space for solar systems, reducing communal energy costs and providing financial benefits to individual owners. The proposals have garnered bipartisan support in Parliament, emphasizing the importance of making solar energy accessible to all.
