Stocarea a crescut de 8,5 ori într-un an și jumătate în România, dar există un risc. Dumitru Chisăliță (AEI): „Bateriile prost gândite pot scumpi energia pe care promitem să o ieftinim”

The installation of energy storage batteries in Romania has reached significant levels, but experts warn of potential risks affecting consumer bills. As of October 1, 2023, Romania has 1,162 MW of installed power and 2,312 MWh of storage capacity. While the growth in storage capacity is notable, it is still overshadowed by Bulgaria's advancements in battery storage. Experts emphasize that poorly planned battery investments could lead to higher energy costs for consumers. The analysis highlights the importance of balancing energy storage costs with the benefits it provides to the energy system. Romania must focus on cost savings rather than just installed capacity.
