PPC Renewables Romania marked the start of construction of its Deleni facility in Vaslui county in the country’s northwest
The 140 MW wind power plant will consist of 23 turbines of 6.1 MW each
Deleni is the first major project of the kind in the Western Moldavia or Moldova region
It will attract other projects to the area
according to Minister of Energy Sebastian Burduja
“And for the national energy system it means a strategic diversification of wind energy production
considering that until now the important parks are concentrated in the Dobrogea area
Congratulations to the PPC company for taking on this major and courageous project,” he said
Burduja: By actually locating the consumption closer to the place of production for electricity
you will be able to offer a more competitive electricity price
Municipal budgets will be doubled with the new tax income
The turbines will be on the territories of the communes Deleni
with a 400/200/100 kV substation in nearby Banca
“This green energy means the future of tomorrow’s generations
it means energy production at a competitive price
so cheaper energy for Romanians and for the private sector
It means the chance for this area to have higher taxes and fees
to create jobs and have an additional factor for attracting investors
By actually locating the consumption closer to the place of production for electricity
you will be able to offer a more competitive electricity price,” Burduja pointed out
PPC Renewables Romania estimated the annual output at 370 GWh
The minister invited the company to participate at the upcoming auction for support under contracts for difference (CfDs)
Including Deleni, the firm’s renewable energy capacity reaches 1.5 GW. In August, it bought the 600 MW Fântânele-Cogealac-Gradina onshore wind park
PPC Renewables Romania is a subsidiary of Greece’s government controlled Public Power Corp
The PPC Renewables branch has 4.7 GW altogether in the two countries
In Romania it aims to surpass 2 GW by the end of 2026
Danish developer and operator of wind, photovoltaic and hybrid projects Eurowind Energy said the construction of its Pecineaga wind farm is progressing. It is in Constanța county in Dobrogea or Dobruja province in the country’s east
Installation started of the Siemens Gamesa turbines SG 6.6-170
The facility will consist of eight machines totaling 48 MW and generate an estimated 176 GWh per year
The company expects the start of operation in the first quarter
Eurowind Energy entered the Romanian market in 2011
Among other recent developments in wind energy, Rezolv Energy signed a string of virtual power purchase agreements (VPPAs) for its Vifor wind power project in the country’s east. Nala Renewables secured EUR 214 million to acquire and build a 99.2 MW wind farm
Earlier this year, Rezolv Energy also signed the grid connection agreement for a 600 MW wind project in Romania, while wpd advanced a 528 MW wind farm in Suceava county
PPC Renewables Romania has started the construction works of the Deleni wind farm
which will become the largest renewable energy production plant located in Moldova region
“This park in Vaslui County marks an important step for the development of the energy sector in the Moldavian region
It is the first major project of its kind in the region and will bring major benefits for the local community and our energy security
affordable and clean energy – this is the future
such an investment will attract other projects to the area
it means a strategic diversification of wind energy production
given that so far the major wind farms are concentrated in the Dobrogea area
Congratulations to PPC for taking on this major and courageous project
We encourage investors in the energy sector to also target the Moldovan area in their investment plans,” said Sebastian Burduja
“This will be the second wind power plant of PPC Renewables outside the Dobrogea area
the one in which the production of electricity in wind power plants has been concentrated so far
The wind potential of this area is important
and the geographical diversification will help both to improve Romania’s energy mix and to reduce the shortage of energy production capacities in the North of the country
We are glad to be able to contribute to the development of a clean energy sector in Romania
which will help the economic competitiveness of the country and local communities”
which is scheduled to be connected to the grid by the end of 2025
will be equipped with 23 GE Vernova turbines
The power of the turbines is almost three times higher than that of the turbines installed in the previous stage of massive wind energy development in Romania
The park will generate approximately 370 GWh of electricity annually
avoiding CO2 emissions of about 215,000 tons annually and providing enough energy to power the equivalent of 62,000 households
the equivalent of a city the size of Vaslui
The wind turbines will be installed in the administrative areas of the localities of Deleni
Bogdănești while the transformer station for interconnection 400/220/110 kV is in Banca
The infrastructure in the area will allow the inhabitants access to the connecting roads that pass through the park
It will have three primary substations; the one from Banca will be the interconnection station with the National Energy System
The wind project also allows the addition of energy storage capacities
PPC Renewables Romania’s total installed renewable energy capacity will reach approximately 1.5 GW
