Danish renewable energy developer Eurowind Energy has commissioned the Tenevo solar power plant in Bulgaria, marking one of the largest assets in its international portfolio and strengthening the region’s expanding hybrid renewable energy infrastructure in Southeastern Europe.
The newly operational facility has an installed capacity of 242 MW and is directly integrated with a large-scale battery energy storage system designed to enhance grid flexibility and support renewable balancing requirements.
The project was developed in cooperation with Austria-based Renalfa IPP, while Solarpro Holding acted as the EPC contractor, responsible for engineering, procurement, and construction works across the entire development.
The battery storage system is being implemented in two phases. The first phase, with a capacity of 65 MW / 260 MWh, is already operational, while the second phase remains under construction. Once fully completed, the total storage capacity is expected to reach 311 MW / 772.5 MWh, positioning the project among the largest battery-backed renewable installations in the region.
The first stage of the project was commissioned in August of last year, marking the initial step in the gradual scaling of the hybrid system.
The Tenevo project reflects a broader regional trend toward combining solar generation with advanced storage technologies, as developers increasingly focus on improving grid stability and maximizing the integration of renewable electricity into national power systems.
