Could Poland become Europe's fastest-growing battery storage market?

If PGE maintains its current pace, Poland could soon emerge as one of Europe’s fastest-growing battery storage markets—a development that would not only reshape its domestic energy mix but also enhance resilience across the broader European power system.

Who controls Poland's pumped-storage hydropower assets?

Currently, PGE controls roughly 90% of Poland’s pumped-storage hydropower assets, positioning it as the country’s dominant player in the energy storage sector. Poland is in the midst of a challenging energy transition.

Where will PGE build a new power plant in Poland?

The project will be built at PGE’s Dolna Odra Power Plant in northwestern Poland, an area already central to the utility’s decarbonisation plans. Once operational, the installation will significantly strengthen Poland’s ability to stabilise the grid as the country ramps up its renewable energy generation.
