Norddeutsche Landesbank (NORD/LB), Erste Group Bank, and Banca Comercială Română (BCR) have partnered to finance the 99.2-megawatt (MW) Green Breeze wind farm, a renewable energy project owned by Nala Renewables.
Located primarily in the municipality of Cuca in eastern Romania, the wind farm will feature 16 Vestas V162-6.2MW turbines. Currently under construction, the project is expected to begin operations in the first half of 2026.
“This project marks our first in Romania, underscoring our commitment to financing renewable energy projects that materially drive forward Europe's renewable energy transition, including rapidly emerging markets,” said Florian Hock, Senior Director at NORD/LB. “The Green Breeze wind farm will play a critical role in decarbonizing Romania's economy, and we're delighted to support Nala Renewables on this important project.”
Will Herlinger, Head of Investment at Nala Renewables, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration, saying, “We look forward to working with NORD/LB on both new opportunities in the CEE region, as well as other projects across the European markets in which Nala are active.”
The Green Breeze wind farm aligns with Romania's renewable energy targets and reflects growing interest in Central and Eastern European markets for clean energy investments.
