Powering Romania’s Future: Navigating the New Era of Solar, Storage, and Grid Innovation

On April 2, 2025, the Solarplaza Summit Romania PV & Storage 2025 was held in Bucharest, marking a significant milestone in Romania’s journey towards renewable energy. The event brought together 100+ attendees, including developers, investors, banks, EPCs, and service providers from both local and international markets. With 25+ speakers and 15+ partners participating in the program, the summit aimed to provide valuable insights into the growing Romanian PV market.

The summit focused on key topics such as the national energy and climate plan, storage solutions, and policy updates. Speakers like Joshua Murphy from Head of Energy Storage and Sebastian Enache from Head of M&A shared their expertise on these critical areas. The event also featured expert panels and case studies on successful local partnerships, highlighting the practical benefits of collaboration within the industry.

The venue for the summit was the JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel, located in an area of historic and national interest. The hotel is a 5-star business hotel that offers proximity to important landmarks such as the Palace of Parliament and People’s Salvation Cathedral.

As Romania aims to achieve 8 GW of renewable capacity by 2030 and over 5 GW of storage by 2026, solar energy combined with storage is seen as a crucial component of this ambitious goal. The summit provided a platform for networking with policymakers and industry leaders to gain insights into future policies and major deals. Attendees had the opportunity to engage with experts like Teodor Filip from Project Finance VP and Harald Ott from Team Leader for Flexibility Services.
