Romania is rapidly emerging as one of the most dynamic markets in the Balkans for storage and renewable energy deployment. With favorable market conditions and ambitious policy support, the country is positioning itself as a key hub for battery energy storage systems (BESS).

Electricity market prices currently offer exceptional opportunities for BESS projects. Since July 2024, daily aFRR activation spreads have averaged €1,456/MWh, creating a strong foundation for revenue generation. These market dynamics make Romania particularly attractive for investors and developers seeking to participate in the energy transition.

Moreover, the growth outlook is significant. Romania’s storage capacity is projected to reach 4.5 GW by 2030, supported by substantial subsidies from the Modernisation Fund. This combination of policy incentives and favorable market fundamentals is accelerating the development of large-scale storage projects.

In our latest reports, Clean Horizon provides detailed insights into the Romanian market. Among other topics, we explore:

• What bidding price is needed to secure the Modernisation Fund subsidy and ensure profitability.
• What optimal system sizing strategies can maximise revenues and bidding performance.
• Which revenue streams create the greatest long-term value for energy storage projects.

With these developments, Romania is on track to become a central hub for energy storage in the region.
