This market report offers an incisive and reliable overview of the wind sector of the country for the next long term period 2017 ÷ 2026. In view of recent cuts in FIT’s announced in Germany, Spain, France, UK, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Bulgaria and Italy, Romania represents a stable investment environment in South-East Europe with clear rules and green certificates support scheme. Current cumulative installed wind capacity in the country is growing fast and Romania is among the best performer amongst SEE countries in the past 5 years.
Despite of reduction of number of green certificates from the beginning of 2014 Romanian market reached more than 3,000 MW cumulative installed wind capacity at the end of 2017. The report provides a complete picture of the market situation, dynamics, current issues and future prospects. You will find more than 120 pages of valuable information in this unique in-depth analysis of the Romanian wind market. With comprehensive market data this report brings clear and concise insights, to help investors in their decision making process.
