18:53
Poland maintained its 22nd position in the latest list of countries attractive for investments in the renewable energy sector – EY Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index (RECAI). It was also placed 12th in the newly created corporate ranking of PPA, reflecting its attractiveness for investors.
"Poland, the economic leader of the region, is also a leading emitter of carbon dioxide. However, there are a number of areas attractive to investors in renewable energy in our country," EY noted.
The development of offshore wind energy in the Baltic Sea has the greatest hopes for growth in subsequent editions of the RECAI ranking.
“Poland, like other countries of Central and Eastern Europe, will have to implement a number of changes to meet the EU's climate goals. Along with the inflow of EU funds and the reduction of regulatory barriers, the climate for investments in renewable energy in our country is changing. More companies are analyzing investments in Poland, the largest renewable energy market in Central and Eastern Europe, with one of the more expensive and more emission-intensive energy systems in parallel,” Jarosław Wajer, partner of EY Polska, leader of the Energy Department in Poland and the CESA region, said.
The first place in the world RECAI ranking is taken by the USA, ahead of China and India.
