Poland's production capacity quadrupled to become the fifth largest photovoltaic power generation country in Europe

In 2019, the EU increased 16.7GW of solar PV installations in its portfolio, an increase of 104% since 2018. This sharp growth marks the largest increase in solar power generation since 2010.
So far, five member countries have made the largest contributions, including Spain (4.7GW), Germany (4GW), the Netherlands (2.5GW), France (1.1GW) and Poland (784MW).
Although the other 18 member countries are lagging behind in realizing the EU's energy plan, most of them are making contributions to this progress, including a major achievement by Poland. The installed capacity of solar power in the country quadrupled from 203MW in 2018 to 784MW in 2019. Poland plans to double the installed capacity to 1.3GW by 2020. These changes are very important for the EU and Poland, which is currently the largest coal producer in the Union.
Previously, the country had been working hard to achieve the Alliance's renewable energy plan, but in 2019, Poland's solar power generation increased sharply. Although the largest renewable energy source is wind energy, Poland is focusing on expanding the field of solar power generation. With the development of many new projects in Poland, Sun Investment Group, a leading developer of solar power plants in Central Europe, also agreed. The group has been cooperating with the Polish market for many years, and they have developed 109MW solar power generation capacity in Poland. With the rapid growth of the solar energy market, the Group's business is further expanding.
Due to the rise in the price of carbon dioxide certificates, the region will soon start to generate income from the difference between the auction price of the awarded power stations and the electricity market price, which will become higher than the auction price of the awarded photovoltaic power generation in a few years. The impact of the increase in the price of carbon dioxide emission quota in Europe will seriously affect the price of electricity in Poland, because coal is the most carbon dioxide intensive energy. Poland mainly relies on coal for power generation and heating, which is obviously a huge driving force for the development of clean energy. However, if Poland wants to transition from coal to renewable energy as soon as possible, it still needs to spend a lot of time to comprehensively transform its energy infrastructure, which means that photovoltaic power generation will save money for Poland and its people and enterprises.
