Achievement of Polish photovoltaics – key data The IEO report „Photovoltaics market in Poland 2023" shows that the year 2022 was very good for the photovoltaic sector in Poland, better
Poland installed approximately 4.6 GW of new solar capacity in 2023, bringing cumulative capacity to over 17 GW. This figure underlines the central role of solar energy in the country's energy mix. At peak times, photovoltaics even surpassed coal as the leading energy source. This is a clear indication of the ongoing energy transition in Poland.
In Poland, interest in energy storage investment has been evident for some time. Last year’s main auction of the power market, with capacity delivery for 2029, further bumped up the capacity of storage projects.
The Energy Regulatory Office said in a report last year on electricity storage in Poland that, as a result of the main power market auctions for 2021-2028 and the supplementary auctions for 2012-2025, contracts for energy storage with a total capacity of 9.5 GW were concluded.
The future of solar energy in Poland looks promising. With the planned 19 GW of new solar projects, Poland could significantly expand its capacities in the coming years and further establish itself as a leading player in the European solar industry.
The country has ambitious plans to significantly expand its renewable energy, with a particular focus on photovoltaics (PV). According to the Institute for Renewable Energy (IEO), there are more than 19 gigawatts (GW) of solar projects in planning or development in Poland.
The cross -sector development - such as the integration of memory solutions and the coupling with other renewable energy sources - shows that Poland not only looks at solar energy isolated, but also tries to build up a future -proof, resilient and diversified energy system.
