What happened

Beta Enerji has signed a supply agreement for a battery energy storage system project in Romania, according to Yeşil Ekonomi. The agreement is valued at €1.88 million and was executed through the company’s Germany-based subsidiary, Beta Enerji Europe GmbH.

The contract concerns a transformer rated at 250 MVA, with a 115/33/33 kV configuration. It is intended for the Romanian battery-storage project rather than a separately identified conventional power project.

Beta Enerji’s remit is wider than the delivery of the transformer itself. The reported scope also covers transport to the project, installation, commissioning and testing. Those activities place the equipment supply and specified implementation stages within the same agreement.

The company said the 250 MVA unit will be the first transformer at that capacity manufactured at its new production facility. Beta Enerji states that the new facility has capacity to produce power transformers rated up to 1,000 kV.

Why it matters

The agreement identifies a defined transformer package for a battery energy storage project in Romania: a 250 MVA, 115/33/33 kV unit alongside logistics, installation, commissioning and testing. For procurement teams following storage-project supply arrangements, the reported scope is the relevant point to record, as it combines equipment provision with named on-site activities.

For Beta Enerji, the order is also a first manufacturing milestone at its new facility. The company has specifically identified the transformer as the first unit of this capacity to be produced there, linking the Romanian project to the plant’s higher-capacity production capability.

Neither the project developer nor a delivery timetable was identified in the source report. Readers assessing the project should therefore distinguish the signed transformer agreement and its stated service scope from details that have not been disclosed.
