Vitalis Consulting, one of Romania’s leading project management and construction consultancy companies, concluded the first quarter of 2026 with a strong acceleration of its renewable energy business, which has emerged as the company’s primary growth driver.
“The strongest momentum has been recorded in the photovoltaic and energy storage segments, as investors increasingly focus on energy efficiency, sustainability and long-term returns. This market is supported both by growing investor interest and by the funding opportunities available for such developments. We see this segment as a strategic pillar for the company’s future growth,” said Alexandru Samoilă, Managing Director of Vitalis Consulting.
Two New Photovoltaic Parks Signed in Q1
During the first quarter, Vitalis Consulting secured two major renewable energy projects. The first is the Mărunței Photovoltaic Park, located in Olt County, with an installed capacity of 60.88 MW and a 100.30 MWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). The second project is the Gârla Mare Photovoltaic Park, located in Mehedinți County, with a total installed capacity of 2 × 63 MW, complemented by two BESS installations with capacities of 50 MWh and 100 MWh, respectively. For both projects, Vitalis Consulting will provide integrated project management, site management, construction supervision and Health & Safety (H&S) coordination services.
These new developments reflect the accelerating pace of renewable energy investments in Romania and further strengthen Vitalis Consulting’s position in a strategic sector with significant long-term growth potential. At the same time, the company is in advanced negotiations for several additional projects, some of which are close to being signed.
Industrial and Hospitality Sectors Continue to Deliver Solid Growth
Beyond renewable energy, the industrial sector remains a strategic business line, particularly in logistics and automated warehousing infrastructure, where Vitalis Consulting leverages its experience gained through more than 80 industrial projects, covering over 600,000 square metres.
The hospitality sector also continues to represent an important growth area, with seven hotel developments currently underway across Romania, representing combined investments exceeding EUR 300 million.
During the first half of the year, the company was involved in projects including H East Residence, a residential development that will deliver 568 apartments, 824 parking spaces and an integrated retail component, as well as a logistics development in Câmpia Turzii, incorporating advanced warehousing and operational technologies. The latter is a relevant example of the ongoing evolution of Romania’s logistics sector and cold chain infrastructure.
A Challenging Yet Supportive Environment for Strong Projects
The company’s positive performance comes amid an economic environment characterised by persistently high financing costs, inflationary pressures and longer investment decision cycles. Despite these challenges, Vitalis Consulting remains optimistic, relying on the flexibility and adaptability it has built over 20 years of activity.
Looking ahead, the company will continue expanding its portfolio in the industrial and energy sectors while strengthening its presence in hospitality and healthcare projects. At the same time, it plans to further invest in digitalisation, automation and the expansion of its technical due diligence services.
2026 marks a significant milestone for Vitalis Consulting, as the company celebrates 20 years of operations on the Romanian market.
