The upcoming Moldova wind and storage tender will support up to 170 MW of new onshore wind capacity combined with mandatory battery energy storage. Bid submission is expected in March 2026, with contract awards planned for June 2026. Carolina Novac, State Secretary at the Ministry of Energy, presented the auction timeline during an economic forum in Chisinau. The announcement was published in the Official Journal. The government's action plan outlines 22 actions related to major infrastructure projects, increasing local electricity generation capacity from renewable sources, improving energy efficiency, establishing energy reserves, and integrating energy. . The Republic of Moldova is importing almost 100% of fossil energy resources (gas, gasoline, diesel, LPG,. To transition towards a carbon-neutral future, the Republic of Moldova should untap its renewable energy potential and invest in renewable energy. . Moldova launched its first tender for wind and solar power plants on Friday as part of a push to reduce its reliance on Russian energy.
