Poland is at a pivotal moment in its energy transition, with power demand projected to rise by 24 TWh by 2030 and coal capacity dropping from 27 GW to 5 GW. While 38 GW of new solar and wind capacity are expected, the urgent need for a reliable and flexible energy storage system to stabilize the grid is clear. However, developing a robust energy storage market faces challenges, as existing support schemes, such as the capacity market, remain focused on conventional power generation and do not address the flexibility required by battery storage systems.
HOST
RENMAD STORAGE POLSKA 2026, MAIN TOPICS
- Define the regulatory and market frameworks needed for long-term stability, aligning with EU Electricity Market Design reform and Poland’s evolving capacity market while clarifying PPA and market opportunity pathways
- Address grid connection, flexibility bottlenecks, and congestion management, strengthening TSO/DSO coordination and system planning under the EU TEN-E Regulation
- Explore financing models, bankability criteria, and access to EU funding mechanisms such as the Modernisation Fund and Just Transition Fund to unlock large-scale capital flows
- Optimize hybrid renewable-plus-storage project strategies, maximizing revenues through co-optimized dispatch, reduced curtailment, enhanced capacity market participation, and grid-stabilizing services
- Strengthen supply chains and manage technology risks, including performance, degradation, and obsolescence across lithium-ion and emerging long-duration storage technologies, while improving BESS operational strategies for stacked revenues
- Enhance system-wide efficiency and resilience, leveraging
platforms like PICASSO for cross-border balancing and reinforcing cybersecurity according to EU NIS2 and CER directives
