“Nu avem un orizont clar pentru repornirea centralei de la Cernavodă” – Bușoi, Ministerul Energiei. Apel pentru urgentarea autorizării bateriilor de stocare - Economica.net

The Romanian government lacks a clear timeline for restarting the Cernavodă nuclear units, emphasizing the need to accelerate energy storage implementation. Renewable energy sources have helped mitigate the impact of nuclear outages, but the absence of storage solutions has hindered their full potential. Cristian Bușoi from the Ministry of Energy highlighted the importance of faster authorization processes for storage facilities to better utilize renewable energy during peak consumption periods. The Cernavodă nuclear plant, with a capacity of 1,400 MW, has been offline for over a month due to low water levels in the Danube, with uncertain prospects for a restart in October.
