Romania’s renewable project pipeline surpasses 114 GW

There are 1,625 renewable energy projects larger than 1 MW in Romania with valid grid connection permits, representing a total approved export capacity of 114.9 GW, according to figures published by the Romanian Energy Regulatory Authority (ANRE).

The figures, accurate as of October 1, show that 1,055 of these projects have also signed connection contracts, equivalent to 63.7 GW of approved export capacity.

A total of 749 projects, representing 41 GW, have also obtained building permits, while 262 projects, representing 16.2 GW of approved export capacity, have obtained ANRE establishment authorisations.

ANRE publishes figures on Romania’s renewable energy project pipeline on a monthly basis. Compared to figures from the start of September, the number of projects with valid grid connection permits has fallen by 1.1%, while the capacity of projects with all three major approvals has increased by 5.28%. This indicates that some projects are progressing through the development pipeline.

The regulator’s latest update also shows that 238 of the 749 renewable energy projects with both grid connection and building permits involve energy storage facilities or standalone storage installations. These projects represent more than 15.3 GW of approved maximum export capacity, just over 4 GW of which has a scheduled commissioning date in 2026.

ANRE’s update also includes a future commissioning schedule, with 259 projects representing 13.02 GW scheduled to come online in 2027. In total, 730 projects representing 40.4 GW have scheduled commissioning dates between 2026 and 2035.

Romania is one of Europe’s fastest growing solar markets in terms of newly-installed capacity.
