Polish energy firms to invest heavily on renewable energy
Vattenfall, the fourth largest energy producer in Europe announced that by 2050 all of its power plants will stop emitting carbon dioxide and will invest in wind farms in Poland. RWE and coal company Kompania Weglowa will construct a low-emission power plant on the basis of closed mine Czeczott.
"In line with our new strategy, investments will consume zł.30 billion. It is difficult to indicate however, how much of this amount would concern ecology, even though currently almost every investment has such a nature," said Pawel Gniadek, spokesperson of Tauron.
Grupa Energa, the largest domestic producer of energy from renewable sources, is planning to invest approximately zł.20 billion of which over half will be designated for clean energy.
According to calculations, the cost of constructing 1MW of renewable energy from biomass costs zł.12 million, while in the case of coal this figure is three times smaller.
