PPC Romania aims to reach 2 GW in green capacities in 2026

Business Forum
PPC Renewables Romania has increased its installed capacity to over 1.5 GW, following additions of approximately 200 MW in 2025.

At the same time, the company will pursue its growth strategy to reach 2 GW of green generation capacities by end-2026, mainly in wind and solar parks, together with battery energy storage systems.

"We continue the program to expand the renewable energy production portfolio, with units that can contribute to reducing the shortage of production capacities in Romania and to the stability of the system, through the predictable production profile and the capacity to store electricity in batteries," said Adrian Dugulan, GM of PPC Renewables Romania.

The latest addition to the company's generation fleet is the Ciorani project, consisting of two photovoltaic parks with a total operational capacity of 85 MWp, and 27 MW of battery storage systems in the process of authorisation.

PPC Renewables Romania has several ongoing projects for new photovoltaic units but also from wind sources. For example, the first phase of the Deleni wind farm in Vaslui County, with a capacity of 140 MW, is in the process of completion, and the second phase will add another 85 MW. This will be the largest wind farm in the region of Moldova and will contribute to reducing the shortage of electricity capacities in the northern part of Romania.

The PPC Group is developing its renewable portfolio in Greece, Romania, Italy and Bulgaria, with an installed capacity increased from 4.7 GW in the first half of 2024 to 6.4 GW at the end of September 2025. The PPC Group's goal is to reach an installed capacity from renewable sources of 12.7 GW by 2028.
