Driving Clean Energy Forward: SANY R.E. Marks Milestone in Europe with Serbia's Alibunar Wind Power Project

Korea Herald10-06-2025

BEIJING, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As the global spotlight turns once again to the urgency of climate action, SANY Renewable Energy is making that commitment tangible, not just in words, but in megawatts. Recently, SANY R.E. signed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) and Contract for Difference (CfD) with Serbia's Alibunar Project. More than just a new market entry, the project reflects SANY R.E.'s resolve to drive clean energy solutions where they're needed most.
The Alibunar project is situated in eastern Serbia, which is one of the country's richest areas for wind resources. Expected to achieve commercial operation in 2028, the project has an operation period of 25 years. With a total installed capacity of 168MW, the project can produce electricity of about 480 million kWh annually after completion. When grid-connected, it will offer Serbia a large amount of clean energy, which will help optimize the local energy structure and reduce the reliance on traditional fossil energy.
The Alibunar project is SANY R.E.'s first investment in Serbia and a milestone in its global clean energy layout. Zhou Fugui, Chairman of SANY R.E., said: "The Alibunar wind project is of great importance to us, marking our entry into the wider European market. We will actively co-operate with local partners and introduce advanced wind power technologies and solutions to help Serbia realize its energy transition and sustainable development goals."
As a leading global provider of wind power solutions, SANY R.E. has been committed to providing efficient and reliable wind power equipment and support. In the process of the project, SANY R.E. will leverage its technical advantages to ensure the efficient advancement and stable operation of the project. Meanwhile, the company's local professional operation and maintenance team will provide comprehensive support for the project.
SANY R.E. has made climate action central to its sustainability strategy, supporting the Paris Agreement goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. In 2024, its wind turbines generated 135.8 billion kWh of electricity, cutting CO₂ emissions by 72.87 million tons — equal to planting 3.3 billion trees. The company also advances eco-friendly turbine design, aiming to raise the recyclability of mainstream models to 95% by 2030, based on 2020 levels.
Looking ahead, SANY R.E. will continue to contribute to the global energy transition by providing high-quality wind power solutions to more countries and regions, collaborating to create a cleaner energy future.

HD Hyundai Electric, Bulk team up for data center

HD Hyundai Electric, a Korean power grid solution provider, announced Sunday that it has formed a partnership with Norwegian data infrastructure company Bulk Infrastructure Group to strengthen its presence in the European data center market. The agreement, recently signed by both companies, outlines collaboration in supplying power equipment for data centers, including power transformers and high-voltage circuit breakers. The signing was attended by Yang Jae-cheol, executive vice president of HD Hyundai Electric's high-voltage power equipment division, and Torbjorn Moe, chief business development officer at Bulk Infrastructure Group. 'The partnership offers HD Hyundai Electric a bridgehead into Europe's data center sector, supporting its efforts to increase market share in the region,' a company official said. 'Through our R&D centers in Switzerland and Hungary, we plan to enhance our technological capabilities by developing eco-friendly power solutions tailored to the European market, while accelerating expansion efforts.' Under the agreement, HD Hyundai Electric will be given priority consideration when supplying equipment for Bulk Infrastructure's future data center projects. Bulk currently operates five data centers across Norway and Denmark and is pursuing further expansion amid rising demand across Europe. According to global consulting firm McKinsey & Co., electricity consumption by European data centers is expected to nearly triple by 2030 — from around 62 terawatt-hours in 2024 to over 150 terawatt-hours — driven largely by the growing reliance on artificial intelligence worldwide. Their share of total electricity consumption in the region is also projected to rise from 2 percent to 5 percent, positioning Europe as the third-largest data center power market after China and the US. The new partnership builds on HD Hyundai Electric's earlier delivery of a super high-voltage transformer to a large-scale data center operated by Bulk Infrastructure in Vennesla, Norway. Europe has emerged as a key market for HD Hyundai Electric, with the company expanding its presence across the region. In May, it entered the Scottish market by supplying four high-voltage transformers for a new substation project.
