HELLENiQ ENERGY has launched its first operational renewable energy projects in Romania, marking a milestone in the company’s strategy to expand its international green energy portfolio.

The group announced the completion and start of commercial operations at two photovoltaic parks in southern Romania with a combined capacity of 58 MW. The projects are part of a broader agreement signed in 2023 with METLEN to develop and acquire four solar projects totaling 211 MW. The remaining two projects, with 153 MW of capacity, are expected to enter operation in 2026.

The Romanian solar parks represent the beginning of HELLENiQ ENERGY’s operational presence in the country’s renewable energy market and form part of a wider regional growth strategy. The company also plans to build a 96 MW wind farm in northeastern Romania, scheduled for completion in 2027, which would lift its installed capacity in the country to more than 300 MW.

Across its operations in Greece, Romania, Cyprus, Bulgaria and North Macedonia, HELLENiQ ENERGY’s renewable capacity has now reached 564 MW, with the company targeting 1.5 GW by 2028 and more than 2 GW by 2030 as part of its energy transition strategy.
