Is there a field of energy storage power in Moldova

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).

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.

See more information about the project on the transparency portal. Because Moldova lacks energy resources, it is almost fully dependent on imports of fossil fuels and electricity.

Despite acceptable energy security levels in Moldova in 2019, the country faces exposure to gas supply shock risks due to its reliance on Russia for all of its gas via Ukraine. Two major supply disruptions occurred in 2006 and 2009 due to disputes between the two countries.

Natural gas accounts for more than half of Moldova's total primary energy supply (53% in 2018), oil roughly a quarter (23% in 2018) and solid biomass one-fifth (19% in 2018). Most natural gas is used for electricity and heat generation, 3 whereas oil is the most important energy source for final consumers.

Moldova shares energy data through five annual International Energy Agency (IEA)/Eurostat/UN Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) joint questionnaires.
