Photon Energy brings online 9.5 MWp of fresh solar in Romania
- Amsterdam-based independent power manufacturer Photon Energy NV (WSE: PEN) has actually placed on stream 9.5 MWp of solar parks in Romania's Transylvania region, expanding its worldwide fleet of solar (PV) generation capacity to 113.1 MWp.
The Dutch company on Tuesday stated it has linked to the grid 2 plants of 4.73 MWp each, both located in the west-central Alba County. The generation, according to its quotes, will bring a combined income of around EUR 2 million (USD 2.2 m) in the following year, based upon the current forward rates for electrical energy base load in the Balkan country.
Located near the cities of Aiud and Teius, the PV parks are expected to produce around 6.8 GWh and 7.1 GWh of power per year, respectively. The output will certainly be fed into the grid taken care of by Distribueie Energie Electrica Romania as well as will be sold on a merchant basis.
Each solar park is geared up with around 8,700 panels placed on single-axis trackers.
The projects were performed by Photon Energy Engineering Romania SRL. Their appointing complies with the completion of three solar schemes completing 6 MWp in southern Romania in April.
In Romania, Photon Energy is currently developing over 240 MWp of projects, to be constructed as well as commissioned in 2023 and also 2024. In the next weeks, the business intends to switch on 10.3 MWp of solar capacity in the country, it said.
