Schimbarea la ora de iarnă, iar pusă sub semnul întrebării. UE vrea să renunțe la ea. Ce urmărește cel mai recent studiu •

Romania will switch to winter time on October 25, moving clocks back one hour. The EU is studying the possibility of abolishing this seasonal change. Researchers are considering scenarios where all member states adopt a standard time, which could lead to time zone differences within the EU and with non-EU countries. The study aims to assess the impacts on economy, environment, transport, and public health. Results are expected by the end of 2026. Discussions on this topic have been ongoing since 2018, with the European Parliament supporting the proposal to end time changes in 2019. A new working group is evaluating the effects of this potential change.
