A wind power park,
which will comprise between 60 and 100 wind turbines, will be built by a Spanish company in the Lotrului Mountains at the height of 2,000 metres, desk officer with the Valcea Territorial Inspectorate for Forest and Hunting Administration Mihai Pleseanu told Agerpres.
'This is an ambitious project, a cooperation between a company in Bucharest and a company in Spain. The project itself was initiated one year ago when installations for anemometric measurements were put in place. Work will start in August, meaning that 60 to 100 wind turbines will be mounted at an average altitude of 2,000 metres, between the Repezi Peak (1,800 m) and the Fratosteanu Peak (2,100 m) in the Lotrului Mountains, in the area of Malaia,' said Pleseanu.
According to him, each turbine is worth roughly 2 million euros and has a 1.5 MW average power and it will be the wind power park located at the highest altitude in Romania.
