Anchored by Romania’s landmark 761 MW Ogrezeni hybrid mega-project, one of Europe’s largest hybrid facilities
MUNICH, GERMANY / BUCHAREST, ROMANIA – June 22nd, 2026 — LONGi Solar Europe, a global leader in high-efficiency solar technology, is strengthening its presence across Central and Eastern Europe by aligning with regional independent power producer Enery’s ambitious growth plans. As Enery advances its staggering 1.5 GW project pipeline for 2026/2027, LONGi is actively working for 50% of this pipeline as the primary technology provider. This collaboration represents a powerful synergy between Enery’s rapid regional expansion and LONGi’s role as a trusted partner for next-generation solar technology.
“Our strategic alliance with Enery has entered a historic phase,” noted Leon Zhang, President of LONGi Europe. “Enery’s massive pipeline for 2026/2027 reflects their incredible regional leadership, and LONGi is proud to be working closely with them on this pipeline with our advanced technology. The Ogrezeni mega-project is a blueprint for the future of European energy combining giga-scale solar with massive energy storage. By supplying over 1.1 million of our flagship Hi-Mo 9 Back Contact (BC) PV modules, we are helping shape a resilient, decentralized, and highly efficient energy grid across the region.”
The Ogrezeni mega-project: a benchmark for European infrastructure
The crown jewel of this 2026 pipeline is the Ogrezeni hybrid project in Giurgiu County, Romania, where Enery has officially commenced construction. Backed by a EUR 460 million syndicated green financing and supported by the Three Seas Initiative Investment Fund (3SIIF), this landmark facility features a massive 761 MWp solar PV array paired with over 1 GWh of battery storage, making it one of Europe’s largest hybrid renewable energy projects.
Reflecting on the scale of the deployment, Alberto Martinez, Head of Construction and O&M of Enery, emphasized that technology selection and strong local support are absolute core to their execution strategy. “With Ogrezeni, we are taking a major step forward in delivering large-scale renewables that create long-term value,” Martinez stated. “Implementing LONGi’s product Hi-Mo 9 BC technology with 660W peak power ensures our asset achieves industry-leading efficiency and energy yield. Throughout this process, the local LONGi partner team has provided exceptional, hands-on engineering and logistical support, making them a vital partner in seamlessly executing one of Europe’s largest hybrid projects.”
Tripartite synergy: unlocking elite local value
To bridge this world-class technology with local execution, Enery partnered with Romania’s ENEVO Group as the main Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contractor. This strategic tripartite synergy ensures that core engineering, construction, and materials are sourced locally to strengthen national supply-chain resilience, creating 350 jobs during peak construction.
“The Ogrezeni hybrid project, together with the strong partnerships behind it, shows that local engineering and execution expertise has reached the maturity needed to take on energy infrastructure projects of this scale and complexity”, said Cristian Pîrvulescu, CEO of ENEVO Group. “Integrating 1.16 million LONGi Hi-MO 9 modules with a massive 1 GWh battery storage facility requires precise engineering, strong execution capabilities and a robust logistical backbone. For us, this project is a clear confirmation that Romanian expertise can play a valuable role in delivering complex renewable energy infrastructure to European standards.”
Technical prowess: more power in less surface area
This ground-mounted project relies entirely on LONGi’s state-of-the-art technology, deploying a total of 1,167,120 ultra-premium Hi-Mo 9 modules. Driven by LONGi’s proprietary HPBC 2.0 (Hybrid Passivated Back Contact) cell architecture, the module delivers up to 660W peak power and an industry-leading efficiency of up to 24.8%. Its unique front-side 0BB (Zero Busbar) design optimizes light absorption, packing more power into less surface area to significantly lower Balance of System (BOS) costs while maintaining an ultra-low linear degradation rate over a 30-year lifecycle.
Mirel Jarnea, Country Manager Romania at LONGi Europe, underscored the impact this specific technology will have on the domestic market: “The Ogrezeni project is a historic victory not only for Romania’s energy security but for the entire SEE Region. Our local team is fully dedicated to supporting Enery and ENEVO Group on the ground, ensuring that our next-generation Hi-MO 9 BC technology maximizes power generation on every square meter of Romanian soil.”
Environmental & social impact: powering the future
Scheduled for full energization in 2027 following the construction start in January 2026, the Ogrezeni hybrid facility will actively optimize clean energy generation and eliminate solar curtailment through its 1 GWh battery network. Once fully operational, the plant will generate enough price-stable electricity to power the equivalent of approximately 684,000 Romanian households while preventing roughly 303,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually.
