flag Romania surged solar energy capacity by 2.5 GW in 2025, driven by policy and storage growth, while facing rising debt and a high-profile probe.

flag Romania added 2.5 gigawatts of solar PV capacity in 2025, a 45% increase from 2024, making it the fastest-growing solar market among Europe’s top ten and accounting for about one-third of its projected 7.6 GW annual total. flag The growth is driven by supportive policies, streamlined permitting, and rising battery storage deployment. flag In parallel, Romania’s largest battery storage facility—200 MW/400 MWh—opened in Florești, Cluj County, as part of a broader push to stabilize the grid and integrate renewables. flag The country’s external debt reached over 225 billion euros by October 2025, up 22 billion from January. flag Meanwhile, a Romanian AI startup, Runware, raised $50 million in Series A funding, and prosecutors exhumed the body of former justice minister Rodica Stănoiu in a probe into her suspicious death.
