Danish developer Eurowind Energy is set to expand Romania’s renewable energy landscape with its first hybrid installation in the country. The planned facility, named Siminoc, will combine wind turbines and solar panels on a single site, with a total capacity of just under 50 MW, evenly split between the two technologies.
The project will be located in Constanța County and represents an investment of approximately €65 million. It is expected to benefit from Romania’s Contracts for Difference (CfD) support mechanism, which will provide revenue stability once the facility begins generating electricity. Annual production is estimated at around 120 GWh, enough to meet the consumption needs of more than 50,000 households.
Development is still in the early stages, with permitting activities scheduled to continue through the first half of 2026. Construction is planned to begin in 2027, with full commissioning expected by 2028. Key technical decisions—including the selection of wind turbines, solar modules, and the potential integration of battery storage—will be finalized during the procurement phase.
Eurowind’s move into a hybrid model reflects its long-term strategy in the Romanian market, where the company has been active since 2011. It currently operates four solar power plants in Romania and aims to reach 124 MW of installed capacity by the end of the second quarter of 2026.
The Siminoc hybrid plant is part of a broader 7.5 GW pipeline of projects that Eurowind is developing in Romania. The initiative represents a shift toward more integrated renewable solutions, highlighting the company’s growing presence in southeastern Europe.
