4 FAQs about [Successful bid price of VRFB energy storage project in Romania 2026]
How much does Romania spend on battery energy storage in 2026?
Romania has also earmarked EUR 199 million to support new capacities for the production and recycling of batteries and solar cells and panels. With this reopened bidding, the ministry aims to see the two-hour duration battery energy storage system (BESS) facilities up and running by mid-2026. The budget for the BESS projects is EUR 79.6 million.
How much does Romania spend on energy storage projects?
Romania has allocated €80 million ($87 million) under its national recovery and resilience plan (PNRR) for energy storage projects, which is expected to result in contracts for a total of 1.8 GW of capacity. “The projects are under evaluation and we anticipate the signing of the contracts in September,” the minister said.
Is the Bess market heating up in Romania?
The BESS market in Romania is heating up, say local analysts and insiders. Irene Mihai, policy officer at the Romanian Photovoltaic Industry Association (RPIA) recently told pv magazine that a realistic target for the utility-scale BESS segment in Romania “would be around 2 GWh (around 1 GW of installed capacity)” for 2030.
How much funding is available for Bess projects?
The total funding available for the BESS projects is €79.6 million (or US$85.7 million). This call for tender has been relaunched after an initial launch in 2023, which was expected to select projects by the end of 2023. The original call had been for around 620 MWh or more storage, as the Ministry of Energy announced in November 2022.
