Romania’s renewable-energy revolution is accelerating. In the past two years, more than 3,000 MW of new solar photovoltaic capacity has been installed, placing the country among the region’s fastest-growing green markets. But with rapid growth comes a new challenge: stability. Without large-scale battery storage systems, the national grid struggles to balance production and consumption. At midday, surplus solar power often goes unused, while in the evening the system relies on gas-fired plants to cover demand peaks.
Recognising this critical need, eBattery.Energy, a Romanian company founded and led by Sever Silaghi and Alex Olecan, is developing a portfolio of three independent Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) projects, each rated at 15 MW of power and 30 MWh of capacity, totalling 45 MW / 90 MWh. Strategically located within 50 metres of Transelectrica and Distribuție Electrică substations, the installations will deliver rapid-response flexibility, ensuring more efficient renewable integration and frequency control.
“Romania needs battery storage, not just solar panels,” says CEO Sever Silaghi. “The country has made remarkable progress in solar generation, but true energy independence requires flexibility. Batteries allow us to store what is produced when the sun shines and deliver it when the grid needs it most.”
Each system uses advanced lithium-ion technology with over 90% round-trip efficiency and a 15–20-year operational lifespan. The sites will operate independently but will be digitally connected through eBattery.Energy’s proprietary control platform, enabling coordinated dispatch and market participation.
The company’s trading partner, Energy Gate SRL, manages optimisation and participation in FCR, aFRR, and mFRR markets, turning battery systems into active market assets that generate value through frequency regulation and energy arbitrage.
With an investment exceeding €30 million, eBattery.Energy’s initiative supports Romania’s national goal of achieving more than 1,200 MW of storage capacity by 2030. The company plans to expand beyond 100 MW / 200 MWh in the coming years, reinforcing Romania’s position as a regional hub for grid flexibility and clean-energy innovation.
