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.
Its adoption will support the greater integration of Moldova's electricity market into the European market. As the author of the draft law, the Ministry of Energy has proposed several specific objectives aimed at supporting the development of energy infrastructure and promoting competition in the electricity market:
This package has been mandatory for transposition into Moldovan legislation since 2022, as part of Moldova's commitments as a contracting party to the Energy Community Treaty. Its adoption will support the greater integration of Moldova's electricity market into the European market.
National regulatory framework (both primary and secondary) improved in line with Moldovan energy commitments, ensuring that national authorities are better prepared and can respond to emergency situations in the energy sector and to the needs of the most vulnerable energy users;
Energy storage (ES) can mitigate the pressure of peak shaving and frequency regulation in power systems with high penetration of renewable energy (RE) caused by uncertainty and inflexibility.
Although the necessary regulations are still lacking, the direction is clear: Moldova is aiming for decentralisation, flexibility and consumer involvement in grid balancing mechanisms.
Grid-Scale Energy Storage Systems and Applications provides a timely introduction to state-of-the-art technologies and important demonstration projects in this rapidly developing field.
