Guvernul pregătește limitarea consumului de energie electrică printr-un act normativ

The Romanian government is preparing a regulation to limit electricity consumption due to an energy crisis caused by low Danube water levels. A draft resolution will be discussed to approve a risk preparedness plan for the electricity sector, ensuring consumer protection during crises. The plan allows for industrial consumption reductions while prioritizing essential services. Measures include optimizing energy production and potential market interventions if necessary. The Ministry of Energy urges voluntary consumption reductions until the end of August 2026, as the country faces severe drought conditions affecting energy supply.
