Energa builds biggest Polish solar park

Energa, one of Poland’s largest power utilities, has announced the completion of its 1.64 MW solar park, the largest in the country. The facility was built in Gdańsk, northern Poland. The photovoltaic power unit comprises 6,292 solar panels with a total surface of 25,000 sqm. The power it generates, estimated at 1.5 GWh annually,  should be able to satisfy the needs of  720 households, Energa said. Energa spent PLN 9.5 million on the project. Construction took two months. “Our solar park in Gdańsk is still more experimental and it won’t have a big share in the power generation or the consolidated financial results of the group,” CEO Mirosław Bieliński said. “We must remember, however, that photovoltaic technologies are becoming cheaper at the fastest rate in the world,” he added.
