Romania has exceeded 3,000 MW of imported electricity again, with over 40% of its energy needs met through imports. The Cernavoda nuclear plant operates with only one reactor at less than half capacity, contributing to high energy prices. Domestic production is insufficient to cover rising consumption, which reached around 8,000 MW. The decline in solar energy production during non-sunny periods exacerbates the situation. Restoring full capacity at Cernavoda could reduce import needs, but this depends on consumption, weather conditions, and other production capacities.
