Iberdrola ntends to build some 50 wind farms in southeastern Romania by 2017, with a total capacity of 1,500 MW.

The company has an agreement with Transelectrica on the connection of said wind farms to the power grid.

Iberdrola announced last year that all its projects in Romania are developed in partnership with Eolica Dobrogea, which is owned by Swiss group NEK Umwelttechnik, and Romanian companies C-Tech and Rokura.

Eolica Dobrogea is tasked with planning and the obtaining of construction permits, while Iberdrola is in charge with construction and operation for the wind farms.
