LONGi and Enery ignite Europe’s energy transition – PV Tech

LONGi Solar Europe 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 1.5GW project pipeline for 2026/2027, LONGi is actively working for 50% of this pipeline as the primary technology provider.
The crown jewel of the 2026 pipeline is the Ogrezeni hybrid project in Romania’s Giurgiu County, where Enery has officially commenced construction. Backed by EUR 460 million of syndicated green financing and supported by the Three Seas Initiative Investment Fund (3SIIF), this landmark facility features a 761MWp solar PV array paired with over 1GWh of battery storage, making it one of Europe’s largest hybrid renewable energy projects.
LONGi Europe president Leon Zhang commented: “Our strategic alliance with Enery has entered an historic phase. Enery’s huge pipeline for 2026/2027 reflects its regional leadership and LONGi is delighted to be working closely with the company 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.”
Reflecting on the scale of the deployment, Alberto Martinez, Enery Head of Construction and O&M, emphasized that technology selection and strong local support are absolutely core to its execution strategy. “With Ogrezeni, we are taking a major step forward in delivering large-scale renewables that create long-term value. Implementing LONGi’s 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 the company a vital partner in seamlessly executing one of Europe’s largest hybrid projects.”
To bridge world-class technology with local execution, Enery has partnered with Romania’s ENEVO Group as the main 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.
ENEVO Group CEO Cristian Pîrvulescu added: “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. Integrating 1.16 million LONGi Hi-MO 9 modules with a massive 1GWh battery storage facility requires precise engineering, strong execution capabilities and a robust logistical backbone. For us, this project is clear confirmation that Romanian expertise can play a valuable role in delivering complex renewable energy infrastructure to European standards.”
LONGi Country Manager for Romania Mirel Jarnea underscored the impact the company’s   technology will have on the domestic market: “As the largest project in Romania to date, the Ogrezeni project is an historic victory not only for Romania’s energy security but for the entire SEE region. Our local team is fully committed to supporting Enery and the 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.”
Once fully operational, the Ogrezeni plant will generate enough price-stable electricity to power the equivalent of approximately 684,000 Romanian households while eliminating an annual 303,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions.
