Avertismentul Comisiei după adoptarea legii care ar întârzia închiderea minelor: „Orice riscuri de reversibilitate vor fi examinate cu atenție, putând atrage consecințe financiare”

The European Commission is monitoring amendments to Romania's decarbonization law, which could delay coal plant closures until alternative energy sources are available. The Commission emphasizes the importance of adhering to commitments under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) and warns of potential financial consequences for non-compliance. Romanian officials have stated that energy supply remains stable, despite concerns about the impact of low river flows on hydro and nuclear energy production. The Commission is open to discussions on addressing drought effects and ensuring energy security.
