Background
In the "2021-2030 Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan" the Energy Ministry plans to invest in a new combined-cycle unit at the site.[7] ELCEN also reported plans to refurbish the plant.[8]
ELCEN, which entered insolvency proceedings in 2021, was bought out by the city of Bucharest.[9]
