PESA to deliver 62 electric trains to Romania worth PLN 3 bln
Polish rolling stock manufacturer, Pesa Bydgoszcz, secured its largest contract to date, winning a record-breaking PLN 3 billion tender to supply Romania with 62 electric multiple units (EMUs) for regional railways in Bucharest, Cluj, and Iasi. Pesa's offer encompasses both vehicle delivery and a 15-year maintenance service, extendable for an additional 15 years, including the construction of three maintenance centers for all 62 EMUs.
This milestone aligns with Pesa's 2030+ strategy for international expansion. The company is also actively participating in Romanian city tenders for tram purchases, contributing to its strategic development plan. Pesa has been present in Romania since 2012 and recently delivered trams to Craiova and Iasi. The final decision on the Alstom appeal against Pesa's selection in a previous tender for 29 EMUs is expected later this year.
