“Enevo is a Romanian engineering company developing projects both domestically and abroad. Our strategy also involves expanding into international markets. One of our key competitive advantages is technical expertise.
You would be surprised to see how few specialists remain in Western Europe. And when they are available, they are very expensive. The most important experts are those working on the ground, performing commissioning.
Romania has the great advantage of well-trained engineers. At Enevo, we have been training generations of engineers for 11 years. Another competitive edge compared to Western companies is pricing. We deliver a quality–cost ratio that allows us to outperform international competitors,” said Răzvan Copoiu, Deputy CEO, Enevo Group during the Green Energy Conference organized by The Diplomat-Bucharest.
Key Statements
- “Flexibility is also crucial. In Western multinationals, decision-making takes much longer. At Enevo, we can meet at the board level and resolve an issue in just two days.”
- “Thanks to these competitive advantages of Romanian companies, I want us to become strong internationally and gain greater visibility in Western markets.”
- “Physically installing a storage unit is fairly straightforward—it comes in a container, and you only need to manage the electrical connections. The more interesting aspect is bankability.”
- “We don’t yet have a regulatory framework that supports long-term contracts. CfDs exist, but more can be done. Banks are now starting to provide financing for stand-alone batteries—something that wasn’t even being discussed last year.”
- “We are going through an extremely dynamic period in the energy market, maybe even more intense than in 2014. The Romanian energy system needs batteries. Batteries are exactly what we need, and I am optimistic this is how we will achieve balance in the national grid.”
- “Romania needs digitalization in the energy sector and can become the most important energy player in the region.”
