Romania’s co-located solar and battery storage market has moved faster than almost any other CEE market. The first hybrid projects are operational, financing structures are being tested against real performance data, and the pipeline behind them is substantial. This session focuses entirely on the co-located solar-plus-storage opportunity, what is working, what is not, and what the next wave of projects needs to get right.
• What co-located solar-plus-storage configurations are reaching financial close in Romania and what does a bankable project structure look like?
• What are the first operational hybrid projects revealing about actual battery dispatch performance, capture rates and revenue versus projections?
• How are developers sizing and optimising battery duration for the Romanian market specifically?
• Which revenue streams within the Romanian co-located stack – frequency response, capacity market, arbitrage, curtailment mitigation – are lenders willing to underwrite?
• How is Transelectrica’s new grid framework affecting co-location connection rights and shared infrastructure economics?
• What is the realistic timeline before Romania faces the solar cannibalisation pressures already visible in Poland, and does co-located storage change that calculation?
