3 March, 2025 at 9:29 PM

The Romanian company Parapet, operating across multiple European countries in the photovoltaic sector, will expand its international presence with a new branch in Bergamo, Italy.

This move aligns with Parapet's European growth strategy, which was strengthened in 2021 when the company expanded its operations with branches in Germany and Romania, including an office in Bucharest.

Parapet aims to develop its Italian branch to match the scale and success of its operations in Germany.

In 2015, the company completed photovoltaic power plants in Brescia, Italy, providing electricity to various regional groups.

Specializing in renewable energy and road safety infrastructure, Parapet has offices in Cluj-Napoca and Bucharest, Romania, as well as in

Nuremberg, Germany, and now in Italy. Since its establishment, the company has installed 1 GW of clean energy across 15 European countries, delivering EPC solutions and mechanical and civil engineering services.

Parapet, headquartered in Cluj, is owned by Andrada Moldovan, who also serves as its CEO.
