Romania’s renewable energy sector has received a further boost with the commissioning of a new wind power project developed by Eurowind Energy, marking another step in the country’s ongoing transition toward cleaner electricity generation.
The newly operational Pecineaga wind farm, located in Constanța County, has an installed capacity of 48 MW and represents an investment of approximately €90 million. The project is equipped with eight Siemens Gamesa SG 6.6-170 turbines, featuring 135-meter towers and 85-meter blades, reaching a total height of around 220 meters, and introducing some of the most advanced wind technology currently in use in Romania.
According to Adrian Dobre, Country Manager for Romania, the project further strengthens Eurowind Energy’s position in one of its core European markets. Romania is among the company’s four strategic priority countries, alongside Poland, Germany, and Denmark. With the addition of Pecineaga, Eurowind’s operational capacity in Romania has reached 124 MW, while energy storage projects totaling 120 MWh are already under construction.
The wind farm is expected to generate approximately 176,000 MWh of electricity annually, enough to supply around 48,000 households. This production will contribute to increasing the share of renewable energy in Romania’s electricity mix and improving overall system sustainability.
Eurowind Energy, active in Romania since 2011, continues to expand its presence in the market, with a development pipeline of approximately 7.5 GW across wind, solar, and storage projects. The company’s current portfolio includes several solar parks and a battery storage project under development in Teiuș.
Looking ahead, Eurowind plans to invest around €300 million annually in Romania through 2030, aiming to build a diversified portfolio of up to 1 GW across wind, solar, and energy storage technologies.
