OMV Petrom, the largest integrated power producer in South-Eastern Europe, and RNV Infrastructure announce that three wind projects, with a total installed capacity of around 300 MW, are entering the execution phase after the adoption of the final investment decision (FID). The projects already have the necessary permits, and production is estimated to start, in stages, from the first half of 2027, according to a press release from OMV Petrom.

“OMV Petrom’s goal for 2030 is to have more than 2.5 GW of installed capacity in renewable energy projects, together with our partners. We have built a portfolio of solar, wind and hydro projects that provide us with the necessary options to achieve this goal. We are firmly moving from the design phase to execution and production: we already have 70 MW in operation and over 1,100 MW under development – ​​including 300 MW in wind. Construction works and equipment deliveries are ongoing on several projects,” said Franck Neel, Member of the OMV Petrom Management Board responsible for Gas & Energy.

These wind projects are part of the transaction completed in October 2024, through which OMV Petrom acquired a 50% stake in four wind projects developed by RNV Infrastructure through Electrocentrale Borzești.

The four projects are:

• Gura Văii wind farm (Bacău county), with a capacity of 50 MW
• Podu Turcului wind farm (Bacău county), with a capacity of 100 MW
• Poiana wind farm (Galați county), with a capacity of 155 MW
• Galați wind farm (Galați county), with a capacity of 657 MW – for which the final investment decision has not yet been made.
