- The Ogrezeni project includes 761MW of solar capacity.
- The project will incorporate more than 1GWh of battery storage.
- Over 1.1 million Hi-MO 9 modules will be installed.
- The project received €460 million in green financing.
- Construction has started in Romania.
- Full operations are expected in 2027.
- The facility could power 684,000 households.
Strategic Partnership Expands Across Central and Eastern Europe
LONGi Solar Europe is strengthening its presence across Central and Eastern Europe through a growing partnership with regional independent power producer Enery. As Enery advances its ambitious 1.5GW project pipeline planned for 2026 and 2027, LONGi is expected to supply technology for approximately half of the planned developments.
The collaboration reflects the growing demand for large-scale solar generation and battery storage projects across Europe as countries seek to improve energy security, reduce emissions, and accelerate the transition toward cleaner energy systems.
According to LONGi Europe President Leon Zhang, the partnership represents an important milestone for both companies as they support some of the region’s largest renewable energy developments.
Ogrezeni Emerges as a Landmark Hybrid Energy Project
At the center of the partnership is the Ogrezeni hybrid project located in Giurgiu County, Romania.
Construction has officially commenced on the facility, which will combine:
- 761MW of solar photovoltaic capacity
- More than 1GWh of battery energy storage
- Large-scale renewable power generation
- Grid stabilization capabilities
The project is supported by approximately EUR 460 million in green financing and backing from the Three Seas Initiative Investment Fund.
Once completed, the facility is expected to become one of Europe’s largest hybrid renewable energy projects, combining utility-scale solar generation with significant battery storage capacity.
LONGi Supplies More Than 1.1 Million Solar Modules
The Ogrezeni facility will deploy approximately 1,167,120 LONGi Hi-MO 9 Back Contact solar modules.
The modules utilize LONGi’s proprietary HPBC 2.0 technology, which offers:
- Peak output of up to 660 watts
- Module efficiency of up to 24.8%
- Improved light absorption
- Lower balance-of-system costs
- Reduced degradation rates
- Longer operating lifecycles
The advanced design enables higher electricity generation while requiring less installation space, improving project economics and energy output.
LONGi says the technology will help maximize energy production across the entire project site.
Battery Storage Strengthens Grid Stability
Battery storage plays a major role in the Ogrezeni development.
The project’s more than 1GWh storage system will help:
- Reduce solar curtailment
- Store excess renewable electricity
- Improve grid flexibility
- Enhance energy reliability
- Support electricity demand during peak periods
Large battery installations are increasingly becoming essential components of renewable energy projects as European power systems integrate larger volumes of intermittent solar and wind generation.
The combination of solar generation and storage allows renewable electricity to be delivered more consistently.

Local Partnerships Support Project Delivery
Enery selected Romania’s ENEVO Group as the project’s engineering, procurement, and construction contractor.
The collaboration between LONGi, Enery, and ENEVO creates a three-way partnership that combines:
- International solar technology
- Regional renewable development expertise
- Local engineering capabilities
The project is expected to create approximately 350 jobs during peak construction activities.
ENEVO Group says the project demonstrates the ability of Romanian engineering companies to deliver large and technically complex renewable infrastructure projects.
Supporting Romania’s Energy Transition
The Ogrezeni project is expected to make a significant contribution to Romania’s energy transition.
Once fully operational in 2027, the facility could:
- Supply electricity to approximately 684,000 Romanian households
- Avoid roughly 303,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually
- Improve energy security
- Support renewable energy targets
- Reduce dependence on fossil fuels
Romania has increasingly focused on expanding renewable energy capacity as part of broader European climate and energy objectives.
Enery’s Expanding Renewable Pipeline
The Ogrezeni development represents only part of Enery’s wider 1.5GW project pipeline planned for 2026 and 2027.
The company continues expanding renewable energy assets throughout Central and Eastern Europe, focusing on large-scale solar generation and energy storage projects.
LONGi’s involvement as a major technology provider highlights the increasing importance of advanced solar technology in delivering utility-scale renewable projects.
The partnership also demonstrates how technology providers and independent power producers are working together to accelerate Europe’s clean energy transition.
Outlook
The partnership between LONGi and Enery illustrates the growing scale of renewable energy development in Central and Eastern Europe. As countries seek greater energy security and lower emissions, large hybrid projects that combine solar generation with battery storage are becoming increasingly important.
With more than 1.5GW of projects under development and the 761MW Ogrezeni facility now under construction, the collaboration could help shape the next phase of renewable energy growth across the region. The project also highlights how advanced solar technology, battery storage, and local expertise can work together to deliver large-scale clean energy infrastructure.
