Targoviste City Hall will build a photovoltaic park by December 2026 with European money on an area of 50,000 square meters, which will ensure the energy independence of educational units, public lighting, and several institutions, announces the mayor of Targoviste, Daniel Cristian Stan. The investment is worth €3.88 million.

"Whether we are talking about schools, kindergartens, nurseries, public lighting, the Swimming Tourist Complex or any other public institutions or services, the necessary electricity will be provided, overwhelmingly, by the project in question", says Daniel Cristian Stan, Mayor of Targoviste.

The investment entitled "Increasing the level of energy independence of the Municipality of Targoviste through the creation of a photovoltaic park" is likely to ensure, in a proportion of more than 95%, the energy independence of the municipality of Targoviste, in terms of electricity needed.
