Ministry of EnergyGovernment

The Ministry of Energy is the central government institution responsible for developing and implementing Romania's national energy strategy, regulatory framework, and decarbonization targets. Its core mandate involves ensuring the security of the national energy supply, accelerating renewable transition initiatives, and managing state ownership interests in critical utility companies including Hidroelectrica, Nuclearelectrica, and Romgaz. Long integrated within broader ministries of industry or economy during Romania's communist era and post-1989 transition, the energy portfolio was established as an independent ministry to navigate market liberalization and EU energy integration.
