Project Timeline

From the first site identification to the current stage. Every milestone is dated and its status marked.

Phase 1 — Site Identification & First Agreements · Q3–Q4 2024
Q3 2024
Confirmed

Site identification — Valle Terovei, Reșița industrial zone

The Valle Terovei industrial zone in Reșița was identified as a viable data center site. The decisive factor: direct adjacency to the Transelectrica 400/220/110 kV substation then under active upgrade by Siemens Energy, Electrogrup and Retrasib — a €multi-million public infrastructure investment in progress. Confirmed industrial zoning required no rezoning. Initial grid feasibility analysis commenced using ENTSO-E public records and Transelectrica PDRET planning documents.

Q3–Q4 2024
Confirmed

EU regulatory framework analysis

Systematic mapping of the EU energy infrastructure framework applicable to the site: TEN-E Regulation (EU) 347/2022, ENTSO-E TYNDP Project 144 PCI designations (Mid Continental East Corridor, Trans-Balkan Electricity Corridor), ANRE Order 59/2013 ATR grid study procedure, OUG 24/2022 strategic investment pathway. The legal and regulatory basis for the project was established before any institutional engagement.

Oct 2024
Confirmed

Confidentiality agreement signed — Municipality of Reșița

A formal confidentiality agreement was signed between the project initiator and the Municipality of Reșița, establishing the institutional cooperation framework. This document — executed with official municipal signature and stamp — confirmed the municipality's strategic interest in attracting data center investment and the project initiator's role as delegated coordinator.

Nov 2024
Public record

Transelectrica 650 MVA substation upgrade confirmed operational

Transelectrica officially commissioned the upgraded 400/220/110 kV substation at Reșița — 650 MVA installed capacity (400/220 kV: 400 MVA + 400/110 kV: 250 MVA), upgraded by Siemens Energy, Electrogrup and Retrasib. This public event confirmed the core technical thesis of the project: the grid node was real, operational, and among the most strategically positioned in Southeast Europe. Source: Economica.net, November 2024.

Phase 2 — Documentation & Market Research · Q4 2024 – Q3 2025
Q4 2024 – Q1 2025
Confirmed

Grid infrastructure research — full documentation

Systematic documentation of all public grid infrastructure relevant to the site: Porțile de Fier–Reșița 400 kV line (117 km, operational April 2024), Reșița–Pančevo double-circuit interconnector (131 km, 2×1,380 MVA, cross-border capacity +80%, both circuits operational January 2025), Transelectrica PDRET 2024–2033 (€1.9B national grid plan, Reșița designated priority node on Banat Axis). Four EU PCI designations under ENTSO-E TYNDP Project 144 documented and cross-referenced.

Q1 2025
Confirmed

Domain resitadata.com registered — digital infrastructure secured

The domain resitadata.com was registered and secured. Email infrastructure established (office@resitadata.com, investors@resitadata.com). Initial digital presence built. This marked the transition from research phase to active project development.

Q1–Q2 2025
Confirmed

Financial modelling & investor documentation

Full investor documentation package constructed from the ground up: site financial model (development cost scenarios, capex/opex benchmarks for 50–200 MW DC campus), EU market analysis (CBRE 2025 institutional investor survey, EUDCA demand forecasts, Mordor Intelligence Romania CAGR data), risk register, EU regulatory pathway map. Documentation structured specifically for institutional due diligence by data center developers and infrastructure funds.

Q2–Q3 2025
Confirmed

Website development — multiple iterations

resitadata.com underwent extensive development over multiple design and content iterations. The site was rebuilt and refined to meet institutional investor standards: claim-by-claim validation with public sources, multi-language support (EN/ES/FR/RO), mobile-first architecture, structured data (schema.org), and a contact system designed to filter qualified corporate inquiries. Over 8 major content versions were produced before public launch.

Q3 2025
Confirmed

Target partner research — developer & investor identification

Systematic research into potential development partners and capital introducers: European data center operators, colocation developers, infrastructure funds active in CEE markets, City of London capital introduction channels. Partner profiles, approach strategies and NDA documentation framework developed. Outreach preparation completed.

Why This History Matters

Site origination is invisible work. This is what has been done — and what it means for a development partner entering today.

18 months

Ground-level knowledge

Site selection, grid documentation, institutional relationships, and regulatory mapping — all already done. A developer entering today skips 12–18 months of discovery work that typically precedes any serious site evaluation.

Public record

Everything is verifiable

Every factual claim on this site links to a public source — Transelectrica, ENTSO-E, Eurostat, Profit.ro. The grid infrastructure is real. The industrial zoning is real. The adjacent PPC acquisition is real and independently verifiable.

March 2026

Registered. Documented. Moving.

The Strategic Partnership Agreement is a formally registered document. The project is not a concept deck — it is an active origination initiative with institutional engagement, documentation, and a clear path to execution. Full document available under NDA.
