H.R. 9252: Promoting Oversight With Energy Resilience for Moldova Act

This bill would require the Secretary of State, working with the Secretary of Energy, to send Congress a report on energy in Moldova within 180 days after the bill becomes law.

What the report would cover

• Moldova’s energy situation: how much energy it produces, imports, and uses.

• Energy billing and pricing: whether energy prices and bills are clear and transparent.

• Infrastructure risks: weaknesses or vulnerabilities in Moldova’s energy system.

• International cooperation: U.S. and other efforts involving Moldova, including leader training, improving understanding of the United States, military-to-military ties, interoperability for joint operations, professional military education, civilian control of the military, and human rights protections.

• Renewable energy potential: the possibilities for developing geothermal, solar, and wind energy in Moldova.

• Feasibility and barriers: what investment would be needed for renewable energy projects and what might make those projects harder to build.

Overall effect

The bill does not directly change Moldova’s energy policy or fund any specific projects. Instead, it directs the U.S. government to gather information and brief Congress on Moldova’s energy system, its vulnerabilities, and possible opportunities for renewable energy development.
