Sonnedix has inaugurated a 21MW solar cluster in the Podlasie region of north-east Poland.
When fully operational this year the WD Cluster will produce around 24,500MWh of renewable energy.
Sonnedix first entered Poland in early 2022, after it acquired the solar developer Sun Power Energy.
This gave Sonnedix a development pipeline of over 1GW and a strong platform for future growth.
Today’s milestone “reflects Sonnedix’s commitment to increasing its presence in Poland and to help drive forward the country’s transition to clean energy”.
Head of growth and representative director for Sonnedix Poland Justyna Nesteruk said: “Today, we’re celebrating a major achievement as our team and partners, along with representatives from authorities and communities, come together to mark the successful completion of the WD Cluster.
“The three projects with combined capacity of 21MW will play an important role in bringing more clean energy to Poland, while also supporting the local community.
“It’s great to see the team’s hard work and dedication brought to life.”
Sonnedix chief executive Axel Thiemann said: “The inauguration of the WD solar cluster demonstrates our commitment to supporting Poland’s energy transition journey.
“Poland is a new market for Sonnedix and we believe solar will play an important role in helping the country meet its clean energy goals.”
As well as generating renewable energy, the cluster will support biodiversity and economic development in the local community.
It will create habitats for native animals and improve the soil health for plants.
Revenue from taxes generated by the installation will directly support and strengthen the local economy.
The inauguration ceremony is being held at Wdziękoń Drugi and will be attended by representatives from local and regional authorities.
Sonnedix’s management team in Poland will cut the ribbon, officially inaugurating the cluster.
