Renewable energy developer and investor RP Global is investing in the development of solar and wind projects in Poland totalling 1GW over the next two to four years.
The first projects to be commissioned from this pipeline by mid-2022 include five solar parks, totalling 180MW in size, located in different regions of Poland.
RP Global managing director for development in Poland Wojciech Glocko said: “I am extremely happy to join RP Global’s management team and to head up this team of highly experienced local industry professionals.
“The renewable energy market in Poland is growing fast and RP Global as a well-established player in the market will play an important role in Poland’s decarbonisation.”
RP Global has been present in Poland for over 15 years, having developed and built five wind farms in the country.
The company owns and operates two wind farms, totalling 104MW, as part of a 50:50 joint venture with the Marguerite Fund.
RP Global CEO Gerhard Matzinger added: “The opening up of the Polish government for low cost, environmentally friendly technologies, providing highly competitive LCoE, makes for an attractive market, even if Poland may not be the first country that comes to mind when thinking of attractive solar radiation.”
