First PV plant operating in Poland’s balancing market
The 204 MW Zwartowo solar power plant is the first large-scale solar project authorized to provide balancing services in Poland.
A closer look at EcoFlow’s three-phase Ocean 2 storage solution
Ocean 2 brings a more versatile large-scale and expandable, modular home storage solution, capable of handling both small and large solar PV input.
Cold thermal storage crucial to boosting liquid-air energy storage efficiency
Researchers reviewed 110 studies on cold thermal energy storage in liquid-air energy storage, finding that cold storage performance has a far greater impact on system efficiency than previously assumed. While phase change materials offer high theoretical efficiency gains, simpler packed-bed sensible heat systems are currently the most mature and cost-effective option, with further experimental validation needed to bridge the gap to large-scale deployment.
Poland adds 3.6 GW of solar in 2025
Poland’s cumulative solar capacity reached 24.8 GW by the end of 2025, with last year’s growth led by C&I and large-scale installations.
Hinen launches 15 kW three-phase hybrid inverter
The Chinese manufacturer said its 15 kW three-phase low-voltage hybrid inverter is paired with the stackable BP5000 5 kWh battery supporting up to 120 kWh. It features three MPPTs, 150% oversized PV input, and smart load management for optimized self-consumption.
Made in Europe: Sungrow builds first European factory in Poland
Sungrow says it plans to invest €230 million ($274 million) in its first European factory in Wałbrzych, Poland, to produce inverters and battery energy storage systems (BESS).
Key takeaways from Solar Energy Expo in Poland
Solar Energy Expo 2026, Poland’s flagship PV-plus-storage trade fair, returned this month with a small show-floor footprint but a sharp focus on flexibility and market reform, as well as the storage, inverter and grid-forming technologies shaping the nation’s next phase of grid integration.
Poland draft grid law could slow solar and storage investment, warns industry
The Polish Photovoltaic and Energy Storage Association (PSFiME) says proposed changes to Poland’s energy law could impose high upfront costs on developers, raising market entry barriers and unfairly favouring large, well-capitalized players.
Poland’s massive new airport project to host utility-scale solar-plus-storage project
Poland’s Central Transport Port company tendered 20 MW of solar PV plus 50 MW of battery storage capacity with a working time of two hours. The project’s capacities could be expanded in the future, when the Port Polska airport will be fully operational.
