“We promised the Romanians that we would maintain the ceiling on energy and gas prices until the spring of 2025. Today, we are taking an extra step and modifying the ceilings in favor of consumers! It is normal to take into account the tendency to reduce energy and gas prices at the European level. The population and the economy are still protected! And we also make sure that the return to the free market is done in stages, until 2026, with fair prices for Romanians”, says Marcel Ciolacu.
The Minister of Energy, Sebastian Burduja, made clarifications.
“The current compensation/ceiling scheme provided Romanians with the fourth cheapest gas and the EU and the fifth cheapest electricity. Through today’s proposal, we optimize this scheme and take into account the decreases on the market. In fact, Romania has the lowest electricity price in the region. It is also a preparation for the stage after 2025, in which we ensure that suppliers will make fair offers for end consumers. In addition, as I promised, I proposed the repeal of the possibility of imposing that tax on the sun, of the article that from 2026 would have given ANRE the possibility of imposing a tax on prosumers. Today there are over 120,000 prosumers in Romania, with an installed power of over 1500 MW”, according to Burduja.
