Romania considers extending energy price caps amid rising gas costs

Supported byClarion Energy banner

Romanian Minister of Energy, Sebastian Burduja, has announced that the Ministry is considering extending the current energy price capping scheme for an additional 3 to 6 months beyond its scheduled end date of April 1, 2025. The Ministry is currently exploring different options to address the ongoing challenges in the energy market.

One potential option is to maintain the current price cap for an additional 3 to 6 months, taking into account the complex regional energy situation and the rising gas prices, particularly on the international market. Under this scenario, the current price limits on consumer bills would remain in place until the extended deadline.

Alternatively, the Ministry is also considering targeting subsidies specifically for vulnerable consumers, based on their socio-economic status rather than their consumption levels, to ensure that support is directed to those who need it most.
