2. Renewable energies are
considered in practice, energy from
sources that either regenerates
itself in a short time or are
practically inexhaustible sources.
Renewable energy sources are
abundant, widespread and locally
available. They come directly and
indirectly from the sun and include
light, heat, and wind.

3. Renewable energy :
1.Wind energy
2.Solar energy
3.Water energy
4.Biomass

4. Wind energy


Last year in Romania were installed 923 MW,
representing an increase of 94% of the total wind
capacity in the country. Cumulative wind power
capacity reached 1905 MW in Romania at the end of
2012, exceeding estimates ANRE and the National
Action Plan for Renewable Energy (PNAER).
Romania has been among the leading emerging
markets from Europe in 2012 in terms of new
installed wind power, being placed 5th in Europe
after Germany (2415 MW), UK (1897 MW), Italy
(1973 MW) and Spain (1122 MW), said the report in
2013.

5. Solar energy


Photovoltaic installed capacity grew
in the first half of 2013 was 7.6 times
higher compared to late last year,
according to Transelectrica.
On December 31, 2012 in Romania
there were photovoltaic parks with a
cumulative capacity of 49.3 MW, and
on June 30, 2013 there were 378.5
MW in operation projects.

6. A photovoltaic power plant was built in Prahova –
Cornu with European funds and the project aims
to cover electricity consumption for all public
institutions and common objectives nearby.

7. Water energy
Lotru – Ciunget Hydroelectric Power
Plant
Commissioned in 1972, Lotru - Ciunget
power plant occupies a prominent place
in the hydropower in Romania, because
of its installed power of 510 MW, which is
the largest installed capacity on the
inland rivers, and the complexity of the
scheme it’ s fitting.
Located underground, 140 m below the river
Latorita is equipped with three 170 MW
hydro composed of synchronous vertical
Pelton turbines and generators.

8. Biomass
Biomass is the biodegradable fraction of
products, waste and residues from
agriculture, including vegetable and
animal substances, forestry and
industries, as well as the biodegradable
fraction of industrial and municipal
waste. Biomass is the most abundant
renewable resource on the planet
including all the organic matter produced
by metabolic processes of living
organisms.

9. In Romania, biomass and cogeneration sector is
developing. If there is one sector that will have a
significant development in 2013-2014, that will be
the production of energy through cogeneration.
Romania is the place for it and the national network
needs it.
