Summary/Abstract: The European Union has set ambitious targets for renewable energy, aiming to increase the percentage share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption and promote its use in transportation and heating sectors. Romania, having a significant potential in renewable energy, especially wind and solar energy, can play an important role in achieving these goals. The exploitation of abundant natural resources and the development of production capacities in wind, solar and hydropower can contribute to the transition to a cleaner and more sustainable energy system, bringing economic and environmental benefits to the country and contributing to significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.
