Eurowind Energy is advancing a 288 MW wind farm project in Romania’s Iasi County as the development moves toward the final stages of permitting. The investment is estimated at around €450 million.
The project is planned for the commune of Movileni and is being developed through Wind Asset. Technical approval for connection to Romania’s National Energy System was received in August 2025. Following the securing of remaining permits, construction is expected to last approximately three years.
Wind turbine configuration and expected generation
The facility will use 40 Vestas wind turbines rated at 7.2 MW each. The planned mix includes 30 V172 turbines with 172-meter rotor diameters and 10 V162 turbines with 162-meter rotors. Turbine heights are expected to range from approximately 221 to 252 meters, and the project is designed for a 35-year operating life.
Annual electricity generation is projected at 630,000–757,000 MWh. That output is described as sufficient to cover consumption for approximately 350,000–420,000 households. Electricity would be delivered to the national grid, while the current project design does not include battery energy storage.
Grid connection facilities and local impact assessments
The development includes two substations, including a 110/220 kV facility that is ultimately expected to be transferred to Romanian transmission system operator Transelectrica. Three turbines planned within 500 meters of built-up areas will require additional assessments related to noise and shadow flicker. The closest turbine is expected to be located approximately 253 meters from the boundary of Movileni village.
If applicable regulatory thresholds are not met, operating restrictions or turbine relocation could be required. Eurowind Energy has operated in Romania since 2011 and currently manages around 184 MW of renewable energy capacity in the country. This portfolio includes a 60 MW energy storage facility in Teius.
