Romania is prioritizing the development of cross-border energy and gas interconnections to enhance regional energy security. Energy Minister Dumitru Chisăliță emphasized the need for better coordination among transport operators and regulatory authorities during the CESEC meeting in Zagreb. He highlighted the importance of a predictable regulatory framework to facilitate strategic project implementation without unnecessary delays. Romania currently has a cross-border electricity import capacity of about 4,000 MW, but increasing this capacity is crucial for energy exchanges. Investments and improved regional coordination are necessary to manage energy imports during deficits and utilize domestic production during surpluses, ultimately aiming to reduce price differences in European markets and strengthen energy security for consumers and industry.
