Natural gas is also compatible with or even supports new technologies such as hydrogen, biogas and biomethane. Therefore, Romanian resources are an important vector for the energy transition, coexisting with renewable resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most important aspects is that the Black Sea is a mature project, close to the moment of start-up and, implicitly, of demonstrating the benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Noua Economie | Sorin Elisei - Director General, Ministry of Energy\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Aw8L4DYa9DE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Raluca Covrig.
