On October 15 in Bucharest, Sany International (Singapore) formally sealed its entry into Europe’s integrated renewable energy market by completing the acquisition of a 95 MWp solar and 218 MWh battery storage project in Dobrești, Romania. The equity-transfer ceremony, attended by representatives of the Romanian developer Enero and key local energy officials, writes a press release, and marks Sany’s first overseas acquisition of a grid-connected PV + BESS asset.

The process was initiated with the signing of a Share Purchase Agreement by Sany’s Singapore representative, Mr. Xu Zhongtian, in April. Impressively, less than five months were needed to finalize the full transfer of shares. Once operational, the project will rank among Romania’s largest hybrid PV + battery installations and is expected to bolster grid flexibility, support renewable integration, and deliver firming capacity in regional power markets.

Better known globally as a heavy-machinery giant, Sany Group has, over the past decade, made deliberate inroads into clean energy, including wind power, energy storage, and project development. Last month, it has won its first orders in Western Europe, for small projects in Germany and Spain. This deal reflects more than a single project — it signals Sany’s strategic pivot into Europe. It also underscores growing investor confidence in Central and Eastern Europe’s clean energy arena as nations accelerate to meet EU climate targets.
