Enel Green Power, the renewable arm of Italy’s Enel, said on Monday it started operations on a new solar installation of 6.5MW, taking its total solar installed capacity in Romania to 26MW.

The Colibasi solar plant is located Southern Romania, in the Giurgiu County, and can generate around 8 million KWh annually, enough to cover the energy consumption of 7,000 households.

Earlier this year, the utility put two online two solar installations with a combined capacity of 19MW.

According to grid operator Transelectrica, Romania reached 463MW of incentivized solar capacities by August.

Under the amended renewable bill, solar installations are granted four certificates, while the issuance of the remaining two has been put on hold, following the government’s decision to delay some green certificates to rein in energy prices.

Aside from solar, the utility operates locally 498MW in wind.
