Unconventional energy sources have gained and will continue to gain a growing share of energy systems around the world, both because of the research effort and the political will involved in their development, and because of the price increase of energy obtained through traditional methods. In order to take advantage of the opportunities offered by the international energy transition process, Romania must undertake new directions for development in the energy sector. Conventional energy sources based on oil, coal and natural gas have had tremendous effects on economic progress, but in the same time proved to be harmful to the environment and quality of life. With the recent remarkable development of sustainable energy technologies and the need to produce it with low greenhouse gas emissions, the use of renewable energy has promising prospects for the energy sector. Energy demand for buildings accounts for 40% of total EU energy consumption, and it is obvious that reducing energy consumption and using renewable energy in the buildings sector is an important part of the measures needed to reduce energy dependency. Romania has a considerable potential for renewable energy resources and is currently very poorly exploited. Renewable energy sources such as solar energy, wind, biomass, hydropower and geothermal energy can play an important role in streamlining and decarbonising power generation systems in stationary applications. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the local availability of renewable energy sources that can provide sustainable energy services for buildings. In addition, renewable energy conversion technologies, including energy storage solutions, and various types of hybrid power systems have been shown schematically. Also, a brief overview of the carbon footprint obtained by the production of a 1 kWh of electricity, which registered in 2017 decreases by 24,75% compared to 2010 due to the increase of the share of renewable energy sources in the mix energy.
