What was the event about?

During recent years, there has been a positive trend of dynamic growth of renewable generation capacity in Poland. With this growth comes many challenges that need to be addressed. Growing profile cost as well as limited connection capacity to the grid indicate need for development of electricity storage.

We discussed how this sector is perceived by market players and advisors and shared views on next year’s forecast for the Polish renewable market.

Discussion Points:

– Bankability of electricity storage projects
– Existing and potential revenue streams for storage projects
– Connections to the grid, Price Caps Act, profile costs – key challenges for renewable market
