În ce stadiu este proiectul care aproape ar dubla puterea instalată de stocare a României? Declarațiile oficialilor Ministerului Energiei și al Comisiei Europene

Romania plans to build a 950 MW energy storage system at Ișalnița, replacing a failed gas power plant project. Discussions are ongoing with EU officials for funding eligibility under the Modernization Fund. The energy storage system aims to enhance national capacity, addressing urgent energy needs. Current storage facilities in Romania have a total installed capacity of 1,162 MW. The project is a response to the unsuccessful gas plant tenders, with ALRO expressing commitment to invest in battery storage. The expected operational date for the new system is October 2029, pending necessary approvals and funding arrangements.
