The construction works for the largest wind farm in Moldova region, located in Vaslui County and owned by PPC, have entered a new phase: the first 2 of the 23 turbines planned for the wind farm have been installed.
Deleni wind farm, located in Vaslui County, will become the largest renewable energy production unit in the Moldova region upon commissioning, with an installed capacity of 140 MW.
The park is equipped with GE Vernova turbines, each with a capacity of 6.1 MW. This is nearly three times higher than the turbines installed during the previous major development phase of wind energy in Romania, which occurred up to 2012.
Installed turbines stand at 121 meters high, with a rotor diameter of 158 meters, each blade measuring 77.4 meters in length. For the foundation of each tower, which has a diameter of 20 meters, about 630 cubic meters of reinforced concrete were poured.
The wind farm will generate approximately 370 GWh of electricity annually, avoiding CO2 emissions of about 215,000 tons per year, and supplying enough energy to power the equivalent of 100,000 households – a city the size of Vaslui, including its component localities.
