The country's technical potential is estimated at 501 ktoe\/year. The sector could generate 20,000-25,000 jobs, predominantly in rural areas.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On February 27, 2026, the Romanian Government adopted GEO 9\/2026 \u2014 a normative act that appears technical at first glance, but marks a structural shift in the country's energy policy. For the first time in the history of national legislation, biomethane receives its own legal framework: clear definitions, specific rights and obligations for producers, and \u2014 most importantly \u2014 explicit access to the national natural gas transmission and distribution infrastructure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stireaverde.ro\/20\/05\/2026\/stiri\/oug-9-2026-biometan-retele-gaze-romania\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">See more -&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Publication: \u0218tirea Verde<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8734,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[48,123],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8973","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-48","category-mai"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8973","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8973"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8973\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8974,"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8973\/revisions\/8974"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8734"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8973"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8973"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fpe.ro\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8973"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
