Hidrocentrala Nehoiașu II ar putea fi pusă în funcțiune în 2029

The Nehoiașu II Hydroelectric Power Plant is expected to be operational by 2029, following environmental approval for renewable energy production. The project aims to enhance energy output and ensure national energy security as Romania phases out coal-based power plants. The construction is currently 85% complete, with ongoing monitoring of environmental impacts. Local opposition has emerged, emphasizing concerns over water resources and advocating for energy storage investments instead of hydroelectric projects. The project has been declared of national public utility, highlighting its importance for sustainable energy policies.
