ENEVO Group and Kraftfeld Energy sign EPC contract for 220 MWh battery storage project in Drăgănești-Olt, Romania

  • Drăgănești-Olt project adds to ENEVO Group’s growing battery storage portfolio, now nearing 1 GWh of capacity in execution or already operational.
  • Construction is expected to begin in Q3 2026, with commissioning and commercial operation planned for early 2027.

Munich, Germany, June 25, 2026 — ENEVO Group and Kraftfeld Energy have signed the contract for the construction of a 110 MW / 220 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Drăgănești-Olt, Olt County, Romania, including the connection to the high-voltage grid. The signing took place at Intersolar Europe 2026. Kraftfeld Energy is the project’s owner, with ENEVO Group acting as main EPC contractor, responsible for the turnkey design, procurement and construction of the BESS and the associated high-voltage substation.

The system will have a rated discharge power of 110 MW and a capacity of 220 MWh, allowing it to absorb and deliver electricity in line with market signals and the operational needs of the national grid. Construction is scheduled to begin in Q3 2026, with commissioning and commercial operation planned for early 2027.

Drăgănești-Olt project strengthens ENEVO Group’s position as an EPC partner for utility-scale battery storage in Romania, adding to a portfolio that now stands over 1 GWh of storage projects in execution or already in operation. As demand for grid balancing and flexibility grows alongside the expansion of renewable generation, ENEVO Group continues to build the technical capacity and delivery track record required for large-scale renewable energy infrastructure in Romania and across the region.

“Projects of this scale are only possible through strong partnerships, trust, and a shared vision for a more sustainable and energy-secure future,” said Ben Salm-Reifferscheidt, Managing Director of Kraftfeld.

“Energy storage is no longer optional; it is a key enabler of a resilient and decarbonized energy system. With this project, we continue to grow our BESS portfolio and demonstrate our ability to deliver complex, utility-scale storage infrastructure end-to-end. We are proud to support Kraftfeld Energy in bringing this project to life and to contribute to a more stable and flexible Romanian power grid,” said Eduard Meiloiu, VP Renewables, ENEVO Group.
