We are consistently carrying on the project to develop offshore wind farms together with the ambitious plan to build solar power plants.

    COMMISSIONING OF THE NEW CCGT UNITS IN DOLNA ODRA

Bearing in mind the changes on the electricity market and the rising costs of CO2 emissions, it has become of key importance to ensure the continued operation of our conventional power plants, as they play an important role in the stability of the power system. The modern gas and steam units being under construction will replace the coal-fired units operating today, taking advantage of the fuel available (Baltic Pipe gas pipeline, LNG terminal).
