Romania’s National Energy Regulatory Authority (ANRE) has announced an adjustment of the regulated tariff applied by Transelectrica for the import, export, and transit of light to the power systems of the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine.
The decision comes as the power exchange intensifies following the synchronization of the two neighboring countries’ power systems with the interconnected grid of continental Europe in March 2022.
In September 2022, authorities initially raised the regulated tariff for electricity exchanges with neighboring countries from €0.6 to €1.2/MWh plus VAT and then further increased it to €3/MWh plus VAT. Regional instability, including attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, drove this hike.

Transelectrica managed more than 3 million RON in Q1 2024 through emergency deliveries to Ukraine following the damage to power plants in Ukraine. The support has been crucial to maintaining energy stability in the region despite ongoing challenges.
The Romanian authority announces that it is further monitoring and adjusting the regulations to ensure an efficient and fair management of energy exchanges in the Eastern European region.
