TODAY
EC/77/2001 DIRECTIVE: on the promotion of electricity produced from renewable energy sources in the internal electricity market
National target
National target for 2010:
33 % of internal consumption (national production +imports-exports) to be covered by electricity produced from renewable energy sources
Currently:
25 – 30 % of generation is from hydro sources, depending on the hydrological factors;
about 96 % of hydro generation is in large hydro power plants and only 4% in small hydro;
wind generation is under 1 % of total production.
Legal framework and procedures (1)
1. Electricity Law (13 / 2007) – general provisions regarding promotion of electricity produced from renewable sources
2. Government decisions:
• GD 1535 / 2003 on approving the Strategy for using renewable energy sources
• GD 443 / 2004 on promoting renewable energy sources
• GD 1892 / 2004 on establishing the promotion system for electricity produced from renewable energy sources
• GD 1429/2004 on approving the Regulation of certifying the electricity from RES
• GD 958/2005 for the amendment of GD 443/2003 and for the amendment and completion of GD 1892/2004
3. ANRE regulations:
• Procedure for monitoring the issuing of guaranties of origin
• Regulation regarding organization and operation of the green certificates market
4. Procedures of the Market Operator and the TSO:
• for issuing Green certificates
• for organizing the Centralized Green Certificates Market
Legal framework and procedures (2)
Producers – certified green electricity
Guarantees of origin issued by the regulator;
All green energy receives Guaranties of origin, including large hydro;
Guarantees of origin are used in establishing the fulfillment of national target.
Promotion scheme for renewable energy sourcesRomania’s case (1)
In 2007:
31 producers received 594 guarantees of origin from ANRE ( hydro and wind power producers)
Producers – qualified for receiving green certificates
• Wind based generation;• Biomass based generation;• Solar based generation;• Hydro generation in power plants with less than 10 MW installed power, put into function or refurbished starting with 2004 .
1 certificate = 1 MWh of produced electricity; Certificates are issued by the TSO - Transelectrica.
Suppliers – mandatory quotas, obligation to buy Green certificates according to
total annual electricity selling to final customers
A penalizing mechanism is applied for non–compliance
63 Euro/GC – 2005-2007,
84 Euro/GC 2008-2012
Extra certificates can be used in the next year.

The centralized market is organized on monthly basis
Minimum and maximum price levels on the market established by Government Decision:
minimum value 24 Euro / MWh
maximum value 42 Euro / MWh

National targets
• According to GD 1069/2007 on approving the National Energy Strategy:
- 2015 - 35% electricity produced from renewable energy sources from internal consumption (national production + imports – exports)
- 2020 - 38%
• According to the project of the new Directive for renewable promotion – January 2008:
- The share of energy produced from renewable sources in the final domestic energy consumption in year 2020: 24 % (electricity, heat and biofuels)
Provisions regarding the applying of the existent support system after 2012; Provisions regarding the life time of the support system in accordance with
some specific criteria (such as: the age of the plant, existence/non-existence of refurbishments);
Stimulation for photovoltaic electricity; Special provisions for consumers which have E-RES installations dedicated
mainly for their own consumption and who can buy/sell electricity from/to the suppliers, according to the availability of the RES used;
Provisions for importing/exporting GC; Provisions regarding E-RES trading, increased values for GC; Creating the possibility to change the destination of the amount of money
collected from the suppliers for quota non-compliance.
Legislative projects:
Draft for GD for establishing the support system for electricity produced
from renewable energy sources (2008-2020)
