Moldova says renewables now supply about 30% of its electricity

Prime Minister Vasile Topan told the General Assembly Moldova has diversified gas purchases and rapidly expanded renewable energy, saying "In just five years, renewables grew from nothing to around 30% of our energy supply." He said Moldova's electricity system is increasingly integrated with Romania and the European grid, which allows Moldovan companies to sell into demanding European markets.

Topan presented energy diversification as both an economic and security measure, arguing that reducing dependence on a single supplier lowers political leverage and supports broader resilience ahead of a difficult winter. He said the government is working with international partners to prepare and to help those most in need during seasonal pressure on supplies.
