- A 400 million euro investment in a project at a Termoelectrica SA power plant in Galati, Eastern Romania is on stand-by following the withdrawal of Czech group CEZ. CEZ abandoned the investment plan last summer and negotiations then started with Arcelor Mittal, with no effect so far.
- A 400 million euro investment in a project at the Termoelectrica plant in Borzesti is still on paper despite GfK Suez, through its Electrabel subsidiary, signed a memorandum with Termoelectrica in 2008.
- A 1 billion euro project in Braila, agreed in 2008, is slowly advancing as in December 2010 a company, Project Braila Power SA, was established. The project company will be run by a consortium formed of E.ON and ENEL.
- Another project in Doicesti has been dragging as for two years Termoelectrica company has had difficult negotiations with Mechel, which eventually withdrew from talks last year.
The projects are in stand-by because of incertitude surrounding the launch of procedures for the establishment of two major power companies in Romania, Electra and Hidroenergetica.
