In line with Transelectrica data, in late February Mitoc Partners, owned by Alerion, got the technical approval for connection to the network and should the investment go ahead, the entire project may be valued at EUR60 million, in line with ZF estimates.

Last year, Alerion got approvals for another three wind energy projects, with overall 100 MW capacity. Also, last March the Italian company had announced plans to install 835 MW wind and solar power projects, with Romania set to attract most investment.

The company is carrying out an agreement with Monsoon Alma, the strongest local green energy project developer, owned by businessman Emanuel Muntmark, to develop three wind power projects in Romania, with total 350 MW capacity.
