Located just 20-minutes from Romania — Hungary border, Satu Mare is a natural gateway to the unique rural areas in north-western Romania. The town stretches north of river Somes. Archaeological evidence shows settlements in the area dating to the Stone Age and the Bronze Age; there is also proof that the Geto-Dacian communities in this region continued to be free, even after the Roman conquest in 105-106 A.D.. Satu Mare was first mentioned in a written document in 1181 as Castrum Zotmar, a fortified stronghold from which the town derives its name. In this beautiful are of cultural and natural beauty Electriffy and partners are working on various solar energy projects, that fit within the landscape and further strengthen conservation and development.

About the project
The Project Development Objective (PDO) is to design, finance, build and operate a utility-scale innovative 100 MW solar energy facility for Rumania and contribute to strengthen institutional capacity to facilitate scale-up of such technologies on a commercial basis in Rumania. This solar energy power plant will fund a local community development fund and protect areas of beauty.
Thorough Nature Inclusive Solar park we restore nature, promote environmental and societal wellbeing. This helps reverse worldwide trends in habitat loss and species vulnerability. The stimulation of biodiversity has beneficial feedback for agriculture, and for the health of the ecosystem itself.
I especially like the idea of supporting local communities and protect nature through the integrated approach, I am happy to be part of this team
