Capalo AI Officially Enters Romania, Bringing Energy Optimization to BESS and Hybrid Assets
Helsinki, 17 September 2026 – Capalo AI, a sustainable technology company specializing in optimization, trading, and route-to-market services for battery energy storage systems (BESS) and hybrid assets, has officially entered the Romanian market.
The company is now registered as a Balance Responsible Party (BRP/PRE) with Romanian transmission system operator Transelectrica, combined with its supply licence already in place, Capalo AI can now bring its full market access and optimization capabilities to energy asset owners in Romania.
Romania is a major growth market for Capalo AI, the country’s pipeline of BESS projects has surpassed 9 GW, with more than 2 GW of capacity expected to become operational by the end of 2026, according to data from the National Energy Regulatory Authority ANRE*, and Capalo AI plans to take a large portion of this pipeline under its services. To support this, Capalo AI has a strong local team with both engineering and growth expertise on the ground.
Optimizing hybrid and co-located PV and BESS assets together requires a different approach from standalone battery trading, combining renewable production, storage flexibility, market positions, and imbalance exposure within a single strategy. This is an area where Capalo AI has built particular expertise across Europe, and the company will bring both standalone BESS and hybrid multi-market optimization to Romania.
Capalo AI’s short-term multi-market optimization capabilities are paired with a partnership with D.TRADING, delivering an integrated commercial offering that covers offtake solutions for both standalone BESS and hybrid projects.
“Romania is a major growth market for us, and becoming a registered Balance Responsible Party with Transelectrica is an important milestone as we bring our optimization services to Romanian asset owners,” said Joffroy Beckers, Country Manager, Romania, Capalo AI.
“We are growing our local team to give customers the support they need, and we are excited to bring our expertise in both standalone and hybrid PV+BESS optimization, built across our European markets, to Romania.”
Capalo AI currently provides trading and optimization services across Lithuania, Latvia, Finland, Sweden, Bulgaria, Greece, and Poland, and is now expanding into Romania with Estonia, Spain and Portugal to follow later this year.
