The number of power generating microinstallations, powered by renewable energy sources and officially registered in Poland exceeded 1.5 million by the end of 2024. The total capacity of these smallest RES microinstallations is more than 12.7 GW. It was another year that the URE saw a decreasing growth in the number and capacity of these facilities.
RES microinstallation installed capacity between 2019 and 2024 (GW) Most RES microinstallations (nearly 98.6 percent) are owned by prosumers, totalling at 1,522,655 in Poland. They were nearly 95 percent of the power (12,045 MW) and 97.2 percent of the energy exported into the national grid from all RES microinstallations (8.318 TWh).
First, the answers to the research questions confirmed that the photovoltaics market is the fastest growing in the renewable energy sector in Poland, and preliminary forecasts indicate that, with unchanged conditions, this trend will continue in the coming years.
In Poland, which is the subject of this article, more accurate data on photovoltaic energy generation mainly cover the period from 2015, when the installed capacity of micro-installations, small installations, and photovoltaic farms above 1 MW totalled around 200 MW . By 2023, it was already as high as 17,080 MW [11,p. 23].
