UKA Polska
The expansion of renewable energies will play a central role for Poland in the coming years in light of European climate targets. Conventional, largely coal-fired power plants are expected to be gradually decommissioned and replaced with wind and solar energy.
After the 2016 "10H" distance rule for residential buildings was relaxed, onshore wind energy development has become increasingly interesting. Overall, this leads to a large growth potential for wind energy in general along with similar increases in the size of the photovoltaics market, resulting in an expected additional ten gigawatts of onshore wind power and five gigawatts of utility-scale photovoltaics by 2030 (Source: TPA Poland/Baker Tilly TPA, Onshore Wind Energy in Poland 2021). In comparison: Current overall installation in Poland is 7.5 gigawatts from onshore wind and 11.6 gigawatts from photovoltaics (Source: www.rynekelektryczny.pl).
UKA is supporting Polish goals for the expansion of renewable energies with its new office in Szczecin which opened in September 2022. At the office, wind and solar projects are planned and implemented. Additionally, UKA Polska is a member of the Polish Photovoltaics Association (PPA), the Polish Wind Energy Association (PWEA) as well as the German-Polish Wind Energy Club (DPWEC), and is continuing to expand its network of local partners.
