York, UK – 15 October, 2012 – Phono Solar, a global renewable energy solutions manufacturer, and Electrasol Proiect, photovoltaic system manufacturer and developer, today announced the completion of a 500 KW installation in the Galati region of Romania.
The Phono Solar 195 W monocrystalline modules used will generate electricity to power approximately 1250 average Romanian homes, or will displace the equivalent of 614.07 metric tons of CO2 per year.

This project is the first PV project completed in the county.
Valentin Macec, Phono Solar Romania Country Manager, said: “We are delighted to be working with Electrasol Proiect again to deliver clean, affordable renewable energy to the general public in Romania.
