Greenvolt has secured €348 million in project financing from a consortium of six leading banks for the construction of a 253.1 MW onshore wind farm in Romania's Ialomița district. This project is part of the larger Wind Rose platform and is slated for commercial operation (COD) in 2027. Concurrently, Greenvolt Power, a subsidiary, signed a sales contract with ENGIE Romania in late 2025, under which ENGIE Romania will acquire the project upon its completion and COD. Greenvolt Power will retain responsibility for construction and commissioning until the transaction's finalization. This significant financing underscores the robust investor confidence in Greenvolt's project execution capabilities and its strategic expansion within the Romanian renewables sector.

Deal Analysis

Greenvolt has secured €348 million in project financing for the 253.1 MW Wind Rose onshore wind farm in Romania, signaling a major investment in the country's renewable energy infrastructure. The financing, provided by a consortium of six banks including Erste Group Bank, BRD, Raiffeisen Bank, Siemens Bank GmbH, UniCredit, and Société Générale, will facilitate the construction of the wind farm in Ialomița district, with commercial operation targeted for 2027. Simultaneously, Greenvolt Power has entered into an agreement to sell the project to ENGIE Romania upon completion, demonstrating a strategic exit strategy for Greenvolt and expansion of ENGIE's renewable portfolio in the region. Greenvolt Power will oversee construction and commissioning until the project's transfer to ENGIE Romania. This transaction highlights the growing attractiveness of the Romanian renewable energy market and the increasing appetite for large-scale onshore wind projects. The involvement of major European banks underscores the bankability of Greenvolt's projects and the confidence in Romania's regulatory environment for renewable energy investments. The deal structure, involving project financing followed by a pre-arranged sale to a major utility like ENGIE Romania, provides a de-risked investment profile, attracting both lenders and strategic buyers. This model could be replicated in other emerging renewable energy markets.
