About 27 percent of gas-fired power plants in Romanian households are older than ten years and should be replaced: E.ON

About 27 percent of gas-fired power plants in Romanian households are older than ten years, according to the results of surveys conducted by E.ON last year. The company recommends replacing them with new, condensing, energy-efficient boilers that ensure cost savings and superior comfort.

E.ON emphasizes that, in a context marked by high volatility in energy prices, the application of energy efficiency measures to reduce consumption, but without affecting comfort, with the aim of reducing the value of energy bills, must become a concern for all consumers.

Replacing old, low-efficiency, high-energy power plants with new, energy-efficient ones is one of the most affordable solutions. A condensing boiler offers a reduction in natural gas consumption of up to 30 percent, thanks to a 108 percent efficiency compared to conventional boilers.

The benefit for the consumer is to reduce the consumption of natural gas by up to approx. 3,600 kWh of natural gas per year, for an average annual consumption of about 12,000 kWh, thus resulting in a savings on the bill that can reach about 1,000 RON per year.
