REGARDLESS OF THE ATTRACTIVE MARKET CONDITIONS, THE ROMANIAN BIOGAS SECTOR DID NOT ADVANCE. AN INDUCTIVE APPROACH

Romania is one of Europe’s traditional producers of energy from renewable sources. After the regime change 1989 nothing happened in this market until 2008 when the Romanian renewable sector went through a remarkable boom. 5.000 MW new capacities were installed mainly in wind, PV and biomass pl...

This question lies at the base of our research covering several company intern and extern aspects. This particular article addresses the risks induced by technology vs. the market risks on the basis of a study case from Romania.
