Enel Green Power Romania, part of the Italian Enel Group, has signed two share purchase agreements with the Greek Mytilineos Group for the acquisition of two solar power plant projects located in Giurgiu and Teleorman counties, with combined installed capacity of 90 MW.
The first project will have an installed capacity of 63 MW and will be built in Calugareni, Giurgiu county. Construction of the plant is scheduled to start by the end of this year. The second project will be built in the Mosteni in Teleorman county, with the capacity of 26 MW, while the construction is expected to start at the beginning of 2022. The two plants are expected to start commercial operations by the end of 2022 and the beginning of 2023, respectively.

The company follows a solid investment plan in the country that reaffirms our commitment to making the planet sustainable.
