Moldova — Energy Infrastructure

OverWatts maps 13 energy assets in Moldova across 5 layers — the 142nd-largest mapped base of 157 countries. They include 4 power plants, 3 pipelines and 3 interconnectors. Operating generation capacity is 1.2 GW, led by gas at 100%.

The companies named on the most assets are Moldovatransgaz (3), Moldavskaya GRES CJSC (2) and Termoelectrica SA (2), counting both ownership and operatorship. Half of Moldova's mapped assets in service predate 1985 (median commissioning year of the 6 with a known date) and the oldest still listed is Ribnita Cement Plant, dating from 1961. 2 projects are under construction or proposed, led by Chisinau Thermoelectric Source 1 power station (250 MW).
