We have a great responsibility in ensuring the security of the national energy system, Hidroelectrica being the company most often used to balance electricity consumption with production in the national market. The objectives in our portfolio must be ready to intervene promptly when called into the system. This forces us to act very seriously and to invest permanently to maintain the optimal operation of the facilities. Step by step we proceed to replace all obsolete equipment and introduce new technologies that allow the automation of as many processes as possible "- declared Bogdan Badea, President of Hidroelectrica's Management Board.
