Romanian Energy Grid Atlas (demo)

The Romanian Energy Grid Atlas is a free demo map published by Sol Associates. Explore Romania's mapped power plants, substations and grid, and county totals from the published list of grid connection approvals (ATR). Each layer states its source, licence and date. General information, not advice.

In this demo

These are the layers of build 3ed40dc61b96, built on 2026-11-04. The date next to a layer is the date of its data, not the date of this page.

  • Power plants (Assets): as of 2026-11-04.
  • Generators outside a plant (Assets): as of 2026-11-04.
  • Substations (Assets): as of 2026-11-04.
  • Power lines (Assets): as of 2026-11-04.
  • County outlines (Assets): as of 2026-11-04.
  • Country outline (Assets): as of 2026-11-04.
  • Wind and cloud forecast (Weather): as of 2026-11-04; a dated weather forecast; not a forecast of generation, revenue or dispatch.
  • Solar irradiation, long-term (GHI) (Weather): as of 2019-12-06; long-term averages, not current site yield.
  • PV output potential, long-term (PVOUT) (Weather): as of 2019-12-06; long-term averages, not current site yield.
  • Daily national production by fuel (Production): as of 2026-11-03; historical totals by day.
  • Listed ATR capacity (gov.ro list, April 2026) (Connection approvals (ATR)): list published 2026-04-25; county totals from one dated list.

Each layer states its source, licence, date and kind of evidence in its own panel on the map.

What it does not show

The Atlas maps what public sources say. It is not an assessment of any project, site or connection approval, and it does not show:

  • grid loading, headroom or congestion;
  • legal eligibility, that is whether any connection approval is valid or subject to any rule;
  • prices, trading or curtailment;
  • the probability that any project is built or commissioned.

Assets are as mapped in OpenStreetMap by volunteers; the map is not a census of the grid and how complete it is cannot be stated. Operator names are as tagged and may be wrong.

The weather layer is a model forecast, not a measurement, and not an energy yield, curtailment or grid loading estimate.

The solar layers are modelled long-term averages for 1994 to 2018, not forecasts and not a bankable yield.

The production layer shows national totals of electricity generation by fuel for the seven complete local days up to the build date, computed by Sol Associates from values published on the ENTSO-E Transparency Platform. It is not a measurement by Sol, not a forecast, and says nothing about prices, trading, curtailment or grid loading; a day with intervals that have no value understates its energy, and a day without data is empty, not zero.

The ATR layer shows connection-approval capacity (MW) listed by the Government in a list published on one date, summed by county. It is not installed capacity, grid loading, available or free capacity or a probability of commissioning, and it does not show whether any ATR is valid, eligible or subject to any rule.

Date bands group ATRs by the date recorded for them in the Government list, which can be the date of the latest amended ATR rather than of the original. They are descriptive. They do not show whether a project meets any rule or deadline, and Sol Associates draws no eligibility conclusion from them.

The Romanian Energy Grid Atlas is published by Sol Associates SRL as general market information for professional users. It is not investment, legal, tax, regulatory or engineering advice, not an offer or recommendation, and it does not assess any project, site, grid connection approval (Aviz Tehnic de Racordare, ATR) or investment.
