Romania has a wide range of renewable resources: hydro-energy, biomass, solar energy, wind energy and geothermal energy sources. However, they are currently virtually unexploited, except fro hydro-energy which is converted into power both in small and large hydropower plants.
Romania operates the largest power sector in the SE Europe,and it has joined the Kyoto Protocol.
Most of the RES energy production will be provided by hydro energy.
The current domestic power supply is secured from one third: hydro, nearly one third: coal (mainly lignite), nearly 10% nuclear, and the remainoing from natural gas and heavy fuel. Wind energy plays a minor role with an installed capacity of nearly ten times less than smaller neighboring Bulgaria.
Romania's wind power projects threefold the capacity of a nuclear reactor
