Romania's Energy Crisis: Bills to Triple, Sparking Public Outrage

Romania Faces Energy Bill Shock: Prices to Triple for Thousands Starting July 1st, 2025, electricity bills in Romania are set to triple for thousands of consumers, according to energy expert Dian Popescu. In an exclusive interview with Realitatea PLUS, Popescu revealed that those currently paying 68 lei per month will see their bills reach almost 200 lei. He further warned of an additional 80% price increase the following month. "Facturile la energie electrică vor fi triple de la 1 iulie... prețurile vor fi mai mari și cu 80% de luna viitoare," Popescu stated, highlighting the severity of the situation. The report shows the impact on elderly citizens, who struggle to manage their finances. This significant price increase raises concerns about the financial strain on vulnerable populations. While the government has not yet commented on the situation, the report emphasizes the importance of consumers actively seeking alternative energy providers to mitigate the impact of these price increases.
