Points to check early
  • Grid first. Without a valid ATR the project has no route to market. Its expiry dates drive the program.
  • Agricultural land. Most Romanian solar sites start as agricultural land, needing zoning and land use steps.
  • Hybrid projects. Adding storage to a solar project affects connection and permits.

Frequently asked questions
Do Romanian solar parks need an ANRE license?

Generation capacities above the threshold set by ANRE need a generation license before commercial operation. Smaller capacities and prosumers have simplified rules.

What is an ATR?

The technical connection permit (aviz tehnic de racordare) issued by the grid operator, setting the connection solution and conditions for a project.
