Dănești project details and expected generation
Italian renewable energy developer Alerion Clean Power has completed construction of the 32 MW Dănești solar power plant in Romania’s Călărași county. The project adds an operating asset to the company’s regional electricity generation portfolio. Dănești is expected to produce approximately 52 GWh of electricity annually, equivalent to the average annual consumption of around 20,000 households.
The installation occupies approximately 51 hectares and incorporates nearly 50,000 photovoltaic modules, each rated at 640 watts. The developer estimates annual carbon dioxide emissions savings of approximately 24,000 tonnes, based on projected operating performance and avoided-generation assumptions.
EPC scope delivered by Parapet for Conti Energie Verde
Romanian engineering and construction company Parapet delivered the project under a full engineering, procurement and construction contract. The scope covered design, equipment procurement, installation, testing and commissioning. The plant was developed for Conti Energie Verde, an Alerion subsidiary.
The completion is part of a broader package awarded by Alerion to Parapet in November 2025. That agreement covers seven solar developments across Romania and Italy with a combined installed capacity of approximately 80 MW.
Related Romanian solar delivery and market implications for output sales
The companies have also worked on the 51 MW Răcari solar plant in Dâmbovița county, completed earlier in 2026. For Parapet, the latest delivery strengthens its position in the regional EPC market. Developers increasingly seek contractors able to manage engineering, construction, equipment coordination and final commissioning within a single contractual framework.
For Alerion, Dănești adds operational production capacity that can contribute to recurring electricity sales. The distinction between completed and operating capacity is relevant for investors because revenue performance depends on successful grid operation, electricity production, technical availability and the commercial arrangements governing output sales.
Romanian solar expansion and timing from construction completion to operation
Dănești also reflects Italian renewable capital moving into Romania, where solar investment has attracted developers seeking opportunities beyond their domestic market. As additional solar capacity enters operation, managing electricity sales during high-production hours becomes increasingly important. For newly completed plants, construction performance is described as only the first financial milestone.
The longer-term value of each investment depends on how effectively generated electricity can be sold in an increasingly competitive regional market.
