"The photovoltaic solar energy market is beginning in Romania and only up to 200 KV have been installed across the country – enough power to supply households of about 500 residents.
The most active company is Dutch-based Girasolar Romania, which is working with state-owned Electrica to install photovoltaic panels in Floresti, near Ploiesti. The firm provides equipment and design for photovoltaic solar panel installations.
On average, a household of five needs an installed power capacity of between two to three KV. The investment can reach about 15,000 Euro per household, if the panels are connected to the grid. An ambitious project to install panels on the roof of the Parliament Palace in Bucharest to generate electricity have failed so far. This one building uses the energy of a town of 25,000, which means it would need 15 MW of installed power capacity in photovoltaic panels - a 45 million Euro investment. β€œThe Palace is so large that when the administrator replaced incandescent light bulbs with energy efficient tubes, it reduced power consumption for lighting by 60 per cent,” says Nicolae Floristean, general manager at Girasolar Romania.
The firm plans to invest 15 million Euro in a production facility for an annual capacity of 22 MW photovoltaic panels in Romania. 'We are in discussions to see if we could benefit from European funds,' says Floristean."
