Romania Daily Load Shape and Duck Curve by Hour, 8 October to 4 November 2026

In the 27 complete local days from 8 October to 4 November 2026, electricity demand in Romania averaged 6,007 MW and typically peaked at 19:00 local time (7,125 MW) and bottomed out at 02:00 (5,100 MW). With solar and wind taken off, the remaining load fell to 3,110 MW at 13:00 and then rose 1,930 MW between 15:00 to 18:00. Hours are local clock time (Europe/Bucharest).

Key Facts

  • Over 27 complete local days from 8 October to 4 November 2026, average demand in Romania was 6,007 MW. The hour of the day with the highest average demand was 19:00 local time (7,125 MW) and the lowest was 02:00 (5,100 MW).
  • The largest three hour rise in average demand was 983 MW, between 15:00 to 18:00 local time.
  • The single highest hour of demand in the 30 day window was 8,080 MW, in the hour starting 2 Nov 2026, 18:00 EET (UTC+02:00).
  • Solar output averaged 1,405 MW at its 13:00 peak, 23% of average demand.
  • Demand minus solar and wind (net load) averaged 4,174 MW, fell to 3,110 MW at 13:00 and rose 1,930 MW over the three hours from 15:00 to 18:00, 32% of average demand.

Average Day by Local Hour

27 days to 2026-11-04, Europe/Bucharest time
Romania average demand and net generation by local hour Average electricity demand in Romania by local clock hour over 27 complete local days from 8 October to 4 November 2026. It was lowest at 02:00 (5,100 MW) and highest at 19:00 (7,125 MW). Net generation is the power produced inside the grid, so it differs from demand by net imports. 0 2,000 4,000 6,000 8,000 00:0003:0006:0009:0012:0015:0018:0021:00

Each value is the mean over 27 complete local days from 8 October to 4 November 2026, weekdays and weekends together, for the hour starting at that local clock time. Net load is demand minus solar and wind generation. The single highest hour of demand in the whole 30 day window was 8,080 MW; it is a published reading, not an average, and is not part of the profile above.

Assumptions

  • Hours are local clock time in Europe/Bucharest. A local day is used only if it is whole inside the 30 day window and at least 22 of its hours are complete; the profile uses the 27 most recent such days. Daylight saving follows the local clock: on a clock change day the missing hour is absent and the repeated hour is averaged over both readings.
  • The average mixes weekdays and weekends and covers only 27 days, so it describes recent conditions, not a seasonal norm.
  • The evening ramp is the largest rise over three hours in the average profile, starting between 14:00 and 20:00 local time.
