What is Moldova's energy consumption?
Transport sector is the second-largest energy consumer (around 0.7 Mtoe) and the main driver in oil consumption growth. Renewables represent 20% of Moldova's energy mix, consisting almost fully of solid biofuels (19% in 2018). 6% of electricity generation comes from renewable sources (hydro, wind, solar PV).
How has Moldova restructured its electricity distribution network?
As part of the reforms, Moldova restructured and partially privatized its electricity distribution network, including Premier Energy, a private company that controls 70 percent of the country's electric distribution grid.
How does Moldova share energy data?
Moldova shares energy data through five annual International Energy Agency (IEA)/Eurostat/UN Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) joint questionnaires.
What is the demand for electricity in the Republic of Moldova?
The demand for electricity in the Republic of Moldova is expecting to grow at a steady rate of 2% annually, increasing in the both scenarios from about 3800 GWh today to 6900 GWh by 2050. In the reference scenario, natural gas will remain the major source of power generation through to 2050.
Learn how to design effective battery energy storage systems for warehouses, restaurants, and small businesses. .
