Suntech and SunSystem announce joint solar power plant ventures in Romania

Two international solar energy firms are to collaborate in Romania on a 25MW solar power facility. Suntech and SunSystem have signed an agreement for the project, which will be developed in partnership with local company RoEnergy.

Suntech solar panels will power two new photovoltaic projects under construction in Romania that will be connected to the national grid by the end of 2013, according to a joint press release.

«This project, along with our recent contract with EDP Renovaveis, underscores the viability of our growth strategy in Eastern Europe,» said Suntech South-East Europe Sales Director Vincenzo Quintani. According to Suntech estimates, the solar panels will generate 30,000 MW-hours of electricity per year.
