The Romanians who installed energy storage systems produced by photovoltaic panels intervened in support of the National Energy System at a difficult time for the electricity grid. Thursday evening, at the peak of consumption, residential batteries injected more than 630 MW into the grid, helping to cover an important part of the deficit after the complete shutdown of the nuclear power plant at Cernavoda.
On Thursday evening, Romania obtained nearly 700 MW of batteries, as much energy as the Cernavoda 2 reactor gave us. "For a few days, the prosumers have been injecting the evening and setting the inverter to network between 20.00 and 22.00, everything they have, said, for Digi24, Eugenia Gusilov, Director Romania Energy Center.
Former Energy Minister Sebastian Burduja contradicts those who say in the big mouth that Romania has no storage, arguing that in the last few summers Romanian, non-Bulgarian, battles give in the system about 650 megawatts, almost as much as the Reactor 2 of Cernavoda. He is optimistic about the future energy system of Romania.
The government is preparing new rules for prosumers in an attempt to reduce imbalances in the national energy system. Elijah Bolojan argues that the installation of new capacities should also be accompanied by the provision of storage capacities.
Solar energy fully compensates for the loss of 700 MW
The second reactor of the Cernavoda power plant was shut down on Thursday morning, which means that every kilowatt consumed counts from now on. For peak hours we will have to import energy at exorbitant prices: 10,000 euros per minute.
