CTP, the largest owner and developer of industrial and logistics space in Romania, is continuing to invest in green energy through the installation of a 1.5 MW photovoltaic power station at the CTPark Bucharest industrial park in western Bucharest. The plant will be developed by Enel X Romania, the Enel Group's global business line offering services to accelerate innovation and drive the energy transition and comprises approximately 3,700 rooftop panels that will provide an average annual production of 2,100 MWh, with priority distribution to its tenants.

"We are the first real estate developer with a rooftop PV station in Romania that is already operational. After the plug-in of our first PV installation at CTPark Bucharest West, we are now constructing a new one, this time at CTPark Bucharest,” said Ana Dumitrache, Country Head of CTP Romania.

Daniel Ortiz, General Manager of Enel X Romania, added that CTP's commitment to renewable solar energy is an important signal for the company to develop a strategic, long-term partnership.
