A Romanian prosumer, journalist George Buhnici, has sent an open letter to Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan criticizing the government’s approach to energy management during the current crisis. Buhnici argues the state is attempting to effectively nationalize energy stored in privately-owned batteries, purchased with personal funds. He claims the government prioritizes talking about reforms over actually implementing them and fails to support citizens taking initiative toward energy independence. Buhnici contends that prosumers have aided the state during a difficult period and deserve consideration. His core message to authorities is that if they wish to control privately-owned battery storage, they must compensate owners fairly. He supports the idea of grid dispatching but insists on reasonable compensation for prosumer participation.
