The Lazuri Solar Park will be located in Satu Mare County and is expected to begin construction in the third quarter of 2025, with energisation scheduled for the third quarter of 2026, the company said in a press release.

The plant will be connected to Romania’s national grid via a newly constructed 110 kV loop-in/loop-out switching station integrated into the existing Vetis–Abator overhead line.

R.Power estimates the solar farm will generate around 70 GWh of electricity per year, sufficient to power more than 48,000 households.
