Wind power projects Alibunar 1 and Alibunar 2, majority-owned by SANY Renewable Energy, a leading global wind turbine manufacturer based in China, have ranked second and third, respectively, in Serbia’s latest renewable energy auction for market premiums in the wind power segment. The auction was organized by the Ministry of Mining and Energy as part of the country’s ongoing efforts to boost renewable energy production.

Alibunar 1, with a capacity of 96.6 MW, and Alibunar 2, with a capacity of 71.4 MW, were recently acquired by SANY Renewable Energy. The projects were originally developed by WV-International, a Dutch renewable energy firm known for its pioneering role in Serbia’s green energy sector, in collaboration with Norwegian developer Emergy.

Following their success in the auction, the company announced that preparations for the construction of both wind farms are underway, with work set to commence in the fourth quarter of 2025. The wind farms will feature SANY Renewable Energy’s S168 wind turbines, each with a capacity of 4.2 MW.

Serbia’s EPS to offtake entire output via 15-year PPA

Upon completion of construction and grid connection, the electricity generated by Alibunar 1 and Alibunar 2 will be sold to Serbia’s state-owned power utility Elektroprivreda Srbije (EPS) under a previously signed 15-year power purchase agreement (PPA). The two wind farms are expected to generate approximately 480 GWh of electricity annually, significantly contributing to Serbia’s transition towards a greener energy mix.

WV-International and Emergy remain committed to expanding their renewable energy footprint in Serbia. The partners are developing an additional portfolio of wind farms totaling 571 MW under the Banat project complex. Furthermore, they are advancing plans for a 125 MW hybrid power plant that will integrate wind and solar energy.

SANY Renewable Energy was listed on Shanghai Stock Exchange in 2022

SANY Renewable Energy Co., Ltd was founded in 2008. It is committed to becoming the global leader in the field of clean energy equipment supply and services.

It was officially listed and traded on the STAR Market of the Shanghai Stock Exchange on June 22, 2022, with the stock code 688349. SANY Renewable Energy’s market share has increased significantly and the company ranked among the top 7 global wind power manufacturers in 2023.
