Türkiye-based system integrator Taliva Energy has completed the supply and integration of 160 MWh of battery systems for its grid-scale energy storage projects in Romania. The delivery, finalised at the end of September, covers part of a 520 MWh portfolio spanning 32 locations for which the company signed agreements in 2026; Taliva aims to complete supply for the remaining capacity by year-end.
32 projects across Romania
The company’s Romanian portfolio now exceeds 520 MWh across 32 signed projects. Sites include Zorleni, Bălțești, Baba Ana, Mihăești, Gorj and Satu Mare. Taliva acts as a full-scope supplier and system integrator, handling technology selection, battery procurement, logistics, engineering, site integration, commissioning, and operations and maintenance.
Integrated approach from hardware to software
CEO Mario Dalsarfati said that getting batteries to site and turning them into a working system is a critical milestone for any storage investment, and that the company is pursuing its goal of becoming a leading grid-scale project integrator. According to Dalsarfati, Taliva combines procurement with ensuring that battery systems operate in step with power conversion equipment, energy management software and grid requirements, using its own domestically developed software across integration, site and maintenance management.
At the start of each project, Taliva assesses site conditions, grid connection requirements and operating goals to define system capacity and architecture under its Taliva ESS offering. The engineering and manufacturing capabilities of iNOVAT, in which Taliva holds an equity stake, support the technical base for energy storage systems and medium-voltage solutions.
PowerKonnekt EMS at the control layer
Control and optimisation are handled by PowerKonnekt, an energy management system developed by iNOVAT that works with equipment from different manufacturers. The EMS optimises a portfolio of more than 1.5 GWh across nine European countries, including Finland, Italy and Romania. Taliva coordinates system integration and testing, carries out on-site performance verification and commissioning, and supports investors through operation with monitoring, technical support, maintenance and performance optimisation under Taliva O&M.
Next markets: Italy, Poland, Ukraine and Greece
With a 25-person energy team in Türkiye and Romania and more than six years of experience supplying renewable energy products in Europe, Taliva runs its Romanian activities with Turkish engineering and local service teams. Building on this experience, the company is pursuing localisation and market entry in Italy, Poland, Ukraine and Greece, with Eastern Europe and Türkiye as its main growth focus.
