Which Romanian companies are adding Bess to their renewable assets?
Other Romania-based companies, such as Parapet and Waldevar Energy, have told pv magazine that adding BESS to their renewable assets is a top priority. The May edition of pv magazine features an in-depth look at Romania’s solar and energy storage markets.
How much solar energy is possible in Romania?
Romania is located in an area with a solar potential of 210 sunny days per year and with an annual solar energy flux between 1,000 kWh/m²/year and 1,300 kWh/m²/year. From this total amount, around 600 to 800 kWh/m²/year is technically feasible. Chart 1: Solar Resource Map of Romania; Sources: World Bank Group, ESMAP, SolarGis
