ENEA26 renewable energy installations including more than 20 hydropower plants, as well as wind farmsImplementing “Enea’s Green Change”: this is the Group’s sustainable transformation strategy building value growth, with the assumption of achieving climate neutrality by 2050, energy storage will be a specialty.
ENERGA2 PV farms (Wielbark and Gryf) and wind farms in 6 localities. Having small and large hydroelectric power plantsBy the end of 2030, the corporation will reach an installed renewable capacity of more than 2.5 GW. Baltic Power’s offshore wind farm of up to 1.2 GW with a completion date of the end of 2026
TAURONA 5 MW PV farm in Jaworzno. In Bytom, the first microgrid in PolandIn 2030, there will be 3,700 MW installed in wind, PV, and hydroelectric power plants. The strategy “TAURON’s Green Turnaround. Energy Around the Clock” indicates the Group’s priorities, the most important of which is to achieve climate neutrality by 2050
