Located in Chirnogeni, Constanta County, the wind farm benefits from the favorable wind conditions characteristic of the region and is estimated to generate an annual net production of approximately 180 GWh, equivalent to the electricity consumption of 90,000 households for one year.

This investment marks a significant milestone for ENGIE Romania, bringing the total installed capacity of wind and solar energy production in Romania to 202 MW. Additionally, with this new acquisition, the company will nearly double its existing wind energy production capacity and, together with its other renewable energy assets, strengthen its position in the green energy production segment.

"By acquiring the Chirnogeni wind farm, ENGIE takes an important step in the company's development in the renewable energy sector, reinforcing its position in the Romanian market, which has significant potential for renewable energies. This strategic investment represents yet another important step towards achieving the goal of having 1,000 MW of installed renewable energy capacity by 2030," said Cristian Buzan, Deputy General Director of ENGIE Romania.

The ENGIE Romania Group owns and operates 2 wind farms with a total capacity of 98 MW in Braila and Galati counties, as well as 4 photovoltaic parks with a total installed capacity of 24 MW in Arad, Buzau, Harghita, and Teleorman counties.

Furthermore, in 2023, the company made the investment decision and commenced the construction of two greenfield solar power plants. One of these is located in Aricestii Rahtivani commune, Prahova County, with a total capacity of 37.2 MWp, and the other, with an installed capacity of 9.3 MWp, is in Gemenele, Braila County, on the site where ENGIE already operates a wind farm. Once completed, this project will be the first hybrid renewable energy plant in Romania.
