The BESS market in Romania is heating up, say local analysts and insiders. Irene Mihai, policy officer at the Romanian Photovoltaic Industry Association (RPIA) recently told pv magazine that a realistic target for the utility-scale BESS segment in Romania “would be around 2 GWh (around 1 GW of installed capacity)” for 2030.
Other Romania-based companies, such as Parapet and Waldevar Energy, have told pv magazine that adding BESS to their renewable assets is a top priority. The May edition of pv magazine features an in-depth look at Romania’s solar and energy storage markets.
The landscape of utility-scale battery storage costs in Europe continues to evolve rapidly, driven by technological advancements and increasing demand for renewable energy integration. As we’ve explored, the current costs range from €250 to €400 per kWh, with a clear downward trajectory expected in the coming years.
Factoring in these costs from the beginning ensures there are no unexpected expenses when the battery reaches the end of its useful life. To better understand BESS costs, it’s useful to look at the cost per kilowatt-hour (kWh) stored. As of recent data, the average cost of a BESS is approximately $400-$600 per kWh. Here’s a simple breakdown:
“As other European BESS markets become increasingly saturated, Romania stands out,” said Evangelos Gazis, Aurora’s head of Southeastern Europe, adding that the investment case for storage is strengthened by wind and solar’s rapid expansion driving high volatility in wholesale and balancing markets. Interesting activity
O&M costs are typically lower for lithium-ion systems due to fewer moving parts, but they should still be factored into your long-term budget. Modern BESS solutions often include sophisticated software that helps manage energy storage, optimize usage, and extend battery life.
