About Romania
Romania has seven operating coal plants for a total of 2,310 megawatts (MW), and its coal capacity has been slowly decreasing over the years. The coal fleet is an aging one, as no operating plants have been commissioned since 1993. The country is a midsize producer and consumer of coal, with most coal reserves located in the Oltenia region. Romania has no new coal plants under construction or in planning since the cancellation of a proposed 600 MW coal unit at the Rovinari plant in 2020. The country has committed to phasing out coal by 2032.
