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.
