Romania — Energy Infrastructure
OverWatts maps 200 energy assets in Romania across 12 layers — the 44th-largest mapped base of 157 countries. They include 106 power plants, 33 oil & gas fields and 22 pipelines. Operating generation capacity is 15.7 GW, led by hydro at 32%. Refining capacity is about 266 kb/d.
The companies named on the most assets are Romgaz (21), SNTGN Transgaz SA (19) and Complexul Energetic Oltenia SA (18), counting both ownership and operatorship. Half of Romania's mapped assets in service predate 1986 (median commissioning year of the 81 with a known date), 8 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Baicoi Nord Oil Field (Romania), dating from 1901. 40+ projects are under construction or proposed, led by Mintia-Deva power station (1.7 GW).
Operating generation capacity by fuel
Utility-scale sites of 100 MW and above. Distributed generation — rooftop solar especially — is outside the tracker, so this runs below national installed capacity.
