Commercial operation is expected to start in January 2027. Namely, the project has an obligation to provide energy capacity to the Polish market for 17 years starting from 2027, having been successful in the 2022 Capacity Market auction organized by the Polish Transmission System Operator (PSE).
The capacity market is set to kickstart the large-scale BESS market in Poland by providing the basic building blocks of the business case, according to numerous delegates interviewed by Energy-Storage.news at Energy Storage Summit Central Eastern Europe (CEE) 2023 in Warsaw in September.
The auction which took place last month (December 2023) cleared at a fixed, consumer price-indexed (CPI) price of PLN 244.90/kW (US$61.73) per year for the contracts which start in 2028, the Polish state bulletin revealed yesterday (9 January). The contract lengths range from 1 to 17-years.
Polish utility PGE Group has launched a tender for the design and construction of a battery storage facility with a minimum capacity of at least 900 MWh. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s DTEK has completed the acqusition of a 532 MWh battery storage project in southern Poland.
Even more surprising was their performance in the December 2024 auction: out of the 245 Market Units that won the main auction for the 2029 delivery year, 82 were identified as BESS.
While final results are yet to be released in January, industry insiders assess that the procurement exercise could have catalyzed around 4.2 GW of BESS capacity pre-derating. A derating factor is a multiplier applied to the actual generation capacity of a unit to determine the maximum size of contract it can secure in the capacity market auction.
