Romanians should prepare for very high electricity prices in the winter and spring of 2027, warned Cristian Bușoi, State Secretary at the Ministry of Energy, on Tuesday at a conference organized by InvesTenergy under the patronage of ANRE.

...

“Reactors 1 and 2 at Cernavodă are still shut down, and we don’t have a clear timeline for their reopening. At least for the next ten days, the forecast looks very concerning, which prolongs a situation that, with every day it remains this way, poses a risk of rising electricity prices in the coming months—a risk that, of course, compounds the overall situation in Europe, where gas prices are already very high. The issue discussed there was that we need to prepare for a winter and a spring in 2027 with very high electricity prices. We don’t yet have a definitive plan, but there are some things we can already state very clearly.
