National Contact Point for Renewable Energy Sources

We are introducing a reform that is critical for the energy sector. The new regulations simplify the grid connection process, unlock investments, and strengthen consumer protection. This will accelerate the development of renewable energy sources, energy storage facilities, and biogas plants, while also providing greater predictability of energy bills for households and businesses. The Act prepared by the Ministry of Energy has been signed by the President of the Republic of Poland.

The Ministry of Climate and Environment, together with the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management, is announcing a new grant program for individuals investing in photovoltaic micro-installations and energy storage systems. The program is financed through the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (KPO) and has a budget of 335 million PLN. Its purpose is to bridge the gap between the conclusion of the My Electricity 6.0 program and the upcoming energy-storage support initiative funded by the Modernisation Fund.

Following the publication of the first renewable energy potential maps in December last year, additional studies have now been released on the National Geoportal and the Ministry of Climate and Environment Geoportal. This marks the second and final stage of the task implementing the provisions of the RED III Directive and the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (KPO), prepared by the Ministry of Climate and Environment.

The National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management (NFOŚiGW) invites stakeholders to participate in public consultations on the assumptions of the new programme "Subsidies for Home Energy Storage Systems.” This is an important step in preparing the programme, whose goal is to increase the efficient use of electricity generated by small residential renewable energy installations.

Polish Waters is opening up to investors by enabling the lease of State Treasury land for the development of hydropower using existing hydrotechnical infrastructure. This approach eliminates the need to build new dams or reservoirs, which minimizes environmental impact, reduces costs, and accelerates the investment process. It is a solution aligned with the long-term goals of the country's energy transition and climate policy.
