increase the level of digitalization to improve the management of unplanned outages The validity of both contracts ends upon expiry of the duration of the monitoring period of the projects five years from the date of commissioning of investments According to the implementation schedule estimated by the E-Distributie companies I said that investments are my absolute priority Strengthening the national energy system through the distribution network is also a priority and it is essential to develop as much as possible green energy production capacities We can only do this through continuous investment through the acceleration of the Modernization Fund We are all working at full capacity so that these projects take shape as quickly as possible,” the Minister of Energy “We have been talking about the energy transition for some time now and we are glad to see that attention is starting to be paid to electricity distribution networks namely exactly those that are the base for this transition and need significant investments in development and modernization to meet the needs of the future The two projects for which E-Distributie companies will now receive non-refundable funding along with those that are already being implemented will contribute to the smooth transition to the new paradigm in energy,” Monica Hodor General Manager of E-Distributie companies E-Distributie Banat

on Friday it won an arbitrage trial filed by Canada’s Gabriel Resources which wanted compensation after its plan to build Europe’s largest open cast gold mine in the western Romanian town of Rosia Montana failed Gabriel Resources had sought at least $4.4 billion in damages from Romania when it filed its claim at the World Bank’s International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes in 2015 for losses related to its stalled project officially withdrew its support for the mine in 2014 after months of country-wide street protests against it “The Romanian government salutes this decision and thanks everyone involved in defending the interests of the Romanian state,” the cabinet of Socialist Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu said in a statement The government had initially expected a negative ruling Gabriel Resources gained concession rights to the Rosia Montana area in 1999 and fought a decades-long battle with civil rights and environmental groups which argued the project would destroy ancient Roman mine galleries and villages The project envisioned using cyanides and carving open four quarries which would have destroyed four mountain tops and wiped out three outlying villages of 16 that make up the Rosia Montana municipality Rosia Montana’s remaining reserves were estimated at 314 tonnes of gold and 1,500 tonnes of silver Ciolacu wondered whether Romania should revive plans to extract the gold reserves from the area in 2021 UNESCO added the ancient Roman gold mining area of Rosia Montana in western Romania to its list of protected World Heritage Sites and

Moreover, they said that the discovery is much larger than the city of Troy, which is said to have been an advanced civilization at the time. The researchers measured about 55 hectares of the nearly 90. And, as a result of the measurements, they have discovered a huge palace, 100 meters long and 40 meters wide.
