Albania's Prime Minister Edi Rama and Deputy Prime Minister Belinda Balluku announced CWP Europe's 600 MW wind power project, Tropoja, which is expected to connect to the grid within 12 months. This project aims to diversify Albania's energy sources, which have been almost entirely reliant on hydropower.

CWP Europe has 900 MW of wind projects in Albania and over 7 GW across Southeast Europe. The Tropoja investment is valued at EUR 1.2 billion and will cover 385 hectares across several villages. In October 2023, CWP agreed with GE Vernova to develop a hybrid wind and solar project in Albania, estimated at over EUR 1 billion. Currently, wind and solar projects totaling 1.5 GW are under development in the country.
