The Romanian government is considering changes to energy bill assistance for low-income households, including new income thresholds and financial support amounts. Discussions involve creating a national registry for vulnerable consumers to better identify those in need. Current support, regulated by OUG nr. 35/2025, provides a monthly electronic voucher of 50 lei for eligible individuals and families. Authorities are also exploring the possibility of extending this support beyond December 31, 2026, and assessing the transition to a liberalized natural gas market. No new income thresholds or support amounts have been announced yet.
