The 250 MW/500 MWh project of Gura Ialomitei is developed in two stages and will become one of CEE’s largest storage systems.
First-stage works are already underway and the entire project is scheduled to become operational by mid-2026.
Clifford Chance Bucharest team that assisted Aukera Energy in getting the funding included Madalina Rachieru-Postolache (Partner), Alexandru Achim (Senior Associate), Adelina Seserman (Senior Associate) and Martha Busuiocescu (Associate).
The project is the first step in a broader investment plan targeting total 2GW battery storage capacity in Romania, says Madalina Rachieru-Postolache, Partner.
Aukera Energy focuses on the development, construction and operation of solar, wind and battery energy storage projects. At present, the company develops an over 16 GW project network in the UK, Germany, Belgium, Italy and Romania.
