Brazi Power Plant
The Brazi Combined Cycle Power Plant contributes to Romania’s electricity supply through gas-fired power generation, with flexible operating capabilities.
Commissioned in 2012 following a €530 mn investment, the Brazi Combined Cycle Power Plant has an installed capacity of 860 MW. It is composed of two gas turbines, each with a capacity of 290 MW, two recovery boilers and one steam turbine with a capacity of 310 MW.
Due to its flexible operating profile and fast response capabilities, Brazi power plant plays an important role in the balancing and ancillary services markets and can support power-system flexibility, depending on dispatch, market conditions and system needs. In 2025, it covered ~9% of the power generated in Romania.
