Most of the renewable electricity generation (RES) plants in operation or under development already include battery energy storage (BESS) capacity. 11 contracts have already been signed for funding under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP). 15 other projects will get financial support from the Modernisation Fund in the first quarter of this year, under a call for projects open until 17 February, with a total budget of 150 million euros.

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).
The projects must focus on building new energy storage capacities in Romania," the minister stated. According to the minister, as quoted by ZF.ro, the total budget for this state aid scheme is €150 million in non-reimbursable funds sourced from the Modernization Fund.
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.
At the beginning of 2025, Romania boasts approximately 3,000 MW in wind energy and 1,500 MW in solar energy. An additional 2,424 MW in wind and solar projects is expected to be operational in 2025, attracting over €2 billion in investments. Romania’s Energy Goals for 2030 Achieve over 32,000 MW in total capacity by 2030.
“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.

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.

On June 12th, Linyang Energy announced that a consortium formed by its Linyang Power Services and China Water Resources and Electric Power Corporation has successfully won the bid for the Mauritius government's grid side energy storage project, with a bid amount of 24.9889 million US dollars (excluding tax), equivalent to approximately 179 million yuan, accounting for 2.66% of the company's 2024 revenue.

According to CELA's findings, the market for energy storage systems in Brazil is poised for a remarkable expansion, with an estimated annual growth rate of 12.8% until 2040. The study anticipates a substantial increase in installed capacity, reaching up to 7.2 GW during this period.
An unreliable grid is driving Brazilian energy storage demand. The world is set to have more than 760 GWh of energy storage capacity by 2030, led by Chinese and United States markets dominated by utility-scale systems.
Opportunities for Stakeholders: Investment Opportunities: The projected growth in the energy storage market presents lucrative investment opportunities for both domestic and international investors looking to capitalize on the evolving energy landscape in Brazil.
Investment, incentives and taxation scenarios According to Brazilian law, there are no legal restrictions on direct foreign investment in the battery storage businesses or in the power sector (except in very specific segments or sectors of the economy).
