Romania's Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan stated that strengthening the energy sector is a government priority, focusing on increasing energy storage capacities. He urged Hidroelectrica to construct 500 megawatts of storage to lower energy costs during peak consumption.

The government also seeks to complete two significant natural gas projects, the Mintia and Iernut power plants, to balance the national energy system. Furthermore, Bolojan announced plans to declare the Liberty Galati Steel Plant a strategic objective, initiating an international tender to secure its future and support employees.
