Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan stated that energy bills could decrease in the second half of 2026, due to the storage of photovoltaic energy.

Bolojan emphasized the importance of energy storage for the competitiveness of Romanian companies in the European market. He criticized the delays in completing the plant in Iernut, mentioning the administrative incapacity that has led to the stagnation of the project since 2016. The Prime Minister stressed the need for investments in gas plants to ensure efficient energy production in Romania.
