What are the current opportunities of financing from European funds for the energy sector?

Deloitte Romania and Ziarul Financiar organize the videoconference “What are the current opportunities of financing from European funds for the energy sector?”, which aims at debating with the authorities and with the business environment the conditions in which companies in this industry can benefit from financing from European funds.

In the context of the transition to the green energy and of the increasing pressure that regulatory bodies, shareholders, clients and employees are putting on energy companies, European funds are an important financing mechanism.

• What are the latest trends in European policies?
• What are Romania’s strategic priorities?
• What lessons have we learned from implementing projects with European financing?
• What challenges should we expect? What are the fiscal aspects of the investments in energy based on financing programs?

All these topics will be addressed by the event’s moderator, Cristian Hostiuc, Editorial Director of Ziarul Financiar, with the videoconference guests:

- Dan Dragos Dragan, State Secretary, Minister of Energy;

- Ionut Micu, General Manager, State Aid and European Funds Department, Minister of Energy;

- Ondrej Safar, CEO, CEZ Romania;

- Bogdan Toncescu, CEO, Transelectrica;

- Dragos Barbulescu, CEO, Delgaz Grid;

- Sorin Elisei, Director, Deloitte Romania, Leader of energy and sustainability practices;

- Radu Kubinschi, Director, Deloitte Romania, Leader of services specialized in European funds;

- Dan Badin, Tax Partner, Deloitte Romania.

The videoconference will take place on Thursday, October 14, 2021, between 09:15 and 11.45, and will be broadcast live on www.zf.ro and on Deloitte Romania and Ziarul Financiar Facebook accounts.
