From the highest level, the authorities say that Romania will not be left without energy in winter. However, Prime Minister Chuke states that “scenarios and hypotheses, including a black scenario” are not excluded. The clarifications come in the context of a confidential document from the National Energy Dispatcher (DEN) recommending that the authorities, among other things, prepare consumers for the possible event when rationalizations are required.

Prime Minister Nicolae Chuke said that after an analysis carried out at the government level, the risk that our country will run out of energy has not been identified, but you should prepare for “hypotheses and scenarios”.

“From the analysis at the moment, we do not determine the risk that our country will be left without energy. Of course, we have to be prepared for hypotheses and scenarios, including a dark scenario in which the unexpected can happen, and then next week at headquarters we will discuss exactly those hypotheses and scenarios and determine what we should do. There is also the implementation of a phased system of measures, the primary goal of which is to save electricity for citizens,” said the Prime Minister.

Warning of the National Energy Controller

Profit.ro wrote on Thursday that the National Energy Dispatcher (DEN) as part of the transport and system operator Transelectrica estimates that the shortage of electricity from domestic production to cover the consumption of Romania in the coming winter, in the evening peak hours, therefore, the risk of the transition of the power system into a state of alarm due to operating without reserves will increase significantly compared to forecasts for the previous cold season, from 180 MW to 1,260 MW, in the moderate scenario developed by the institution, and from 1,830 to 3,490 MW, in the pessimistic scenario.

DEN recommends the authorities, among other things, to prepare consumers for the fact that rationalization will be necessary in “foreseeable energy crisis situations”, as well as to temporarily relax restrictions on heating with wood, reduce demand for electricity and gas, the cited source writes.

The National Energy Dispatcher (DEN), as part of the transport and system operator Transelectrica, estimates that the shortage of electricity from domestic production to cover the consumption of Romania in the coming winter, during peak load hours in the evening, as a consequence and the risk of entering the energy system, which is in availability as a result of operating without reserves, will increase significantly compared to forecasts for the previous cold season, from 180 MW to 1,260 MW in the moderate scenario developed by the institution, and from 1,830 to 3,490 MW. , in a pessimistic scenario, according to data analyzed by Profit.ro.
