As part of its energy transition strategy, Romania is investing in storage technologies. Through the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), the Ministry of Energy has initiated battery storage projects with a total capacity of nearly 800 MWh. These initiatives aim to stabilise the grid and integrate intermittent renewable energy sources.
Today, the Minister of Energy, Sebastian Burduja, announced on Facebook that an additional €150 million will be invested in Romania’s energy sector. "I am pleased to announce that the Ministry of Energy is launching a new call for projects financed through the Modernization Fund, aimed at investments in energy storage capacities (batteries).
Romania's energy sector is characterized by opportunities in emerging areas such as hydrogen and LNG, alongside ongoing investments in renewable energy and nuclear power. The regulatory environment is evolving to support these developments, making Romania a promising market for energy investments.
Eligible participants include Romanian economic operators – micro-enterprises, SMEs, large companies, newly established entities, and public institutions. The projects must focus on building new energy storage capacities in Romania," the minister stated.

The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
