The investment in the project exceeds RON51 million, VAT included, (nearly EUR10 million), of which RON33.4 million represents non-refundable co-financing from the Modernization Fund and RON17.6 million, VAT included, represents the contribution of Delgaz Grid.
After the completion of the works, estimated at the end of this year, consumers will benefit from better services by increasing the degree of continuity in the electricity supply and the quality of the distribution service, while increasing the connection capacity for new consumers, prosumers and green energy producers. At the same time, the Roman Laminor station is connected to two other transformer stations, Tupilați and Filipești, which provides increased security in the electricity supply of the area.
The main works consist in replacing the equipment specific to the distribution of electricity at 110 kV (circuit breakers, separators, measuring transformers) and 20 kV (control room and modular connections). The protection and measuring systems, as well as those that ensure the station’s own consumption, both in alternating current and direct current, will also be replaced. The equipment and technologies used are of the latest generation, and the station will be supervised and controlled remotely, to be integrated into the SCADA (Monitoring, Control and Data Acquisition) system.
In December 2024, Delgaz Grid completed the construction of a new transformer station in the town of Onesti (Bacau County), within an investment of RON22.7 million, which will benefit over 31,000 customers. At the moment, the company has in various stages of implementation projects with European co-financing for the modernization of another 32 transformer stations in the six counties in the region of Moldavia where it operates in the electricity segment.
Delgaz Grid operates a 26,000-km natural gas network in 20 counties of northern and western Romania (Cluj, Bistrita-Nasaud, Maramures, Satu Mare, Salaj, Timis, Arad, Bihor, Caras-Severin, Hunedoara, Mures, Sibiu, Alba, Harghita, Iasi, Botosani, Vaslui, Suceava, Neamt and Bacau) and a nearly 82,000-km electricity grid in six counties of Moldavia: Bacau, Botosani, Iasi, Neamt, Suceava and Vaslui, serving 3.6 million customers.
