The PV Congress 2024 - a prestigious #event organized by the Polskie Stowarzyszenie Fotowoltaiki- is currently underway. As every year, Warsaw is becoming a hub of knowledge, sharing experience and creating business relationships, for those involved in the #energyindustry - especially the part of it that focuses on #solarenergy. The first day included an excellent experts' debate on Poland's Energy Policy. Among the panelists, representatives of government administration: Mr Rafał Gawin - The President of the Energy Regulatory Office and Mr Miłosz Motyka - Deputy Minister in the Ministry of Climate and Environment. Certainly, there was no lack of representatives of companies from the energy industry, in this role Mr Bartek Zysiński - CEO of Solartech, Mr Maciej Grzesiewski, CFA, FCCA - Director of the M&A department at Onde and Mr Michal Marona- Country Manager Poland at Solar Edge. In the outlook of recent years, the issue of #cybersecurity has become prominent. In the field of #energy, an important role is played by data - it is an extremely valuable asset, which is necessary not only for ensuring the effective operational activities of business entities and the smooth operation of the power grid, but also for the possibility of developing the energy infrastructure in Poland. The construction of secure grids is to be facilitated by #EuropeanUnion directives, the successive implementation of which is being intensively worked on. There was also discussion of the role of the law, paying particular attention to the connection between the implemented regulations and the business. Development of the energy industry must be supported by appropriate legislation. Regulations that compose Poland's Energy Policy must not hold back the potential of business, limiting the ability of energy entrepreneurs to influence the choice of development path. Regarding development, it was also noted that it is hardly possible to talk about the evolution of #RES without the large-scale use of #energystorage and the development of flexibility services. #KongresPV #assetmanagement4res #PV #greenenergy #OZE #renewables #energiaodnawialna #solarpower #fotowoltaika #renewableeneergy

One of the key elements in building energy independence is the use of biomethane. Strategy& Poland's research shows that we are fully aware of this. Now, 68% of companies in Poland believe that biomethane has an important role to play in Poland's energy transition. Only that one day... - Because even 66% of the respondents (of the same survey) do not see much development potential for this biofuel in the perspective of 2030. As a result, we use only 3% of the total biogas production potential in Poland. At the beginning of 2024, 163 agricultural biogas plants belonging to 137 entities with a total installed electric capacity of about 155 MW were listed in the Register of Agricultural Biogas Producers maintained by the Director of the National Center for Agricultural Support. They produce about 634 million m3 of biogas per year. In addition, plants using biogas from landfills and sewage treatment plants have a total installed capacity of about 150 MW, which brings the total installed capacity of biogas plants in Poland to 300 MW. Is that a lot or a little? If we look at the estimates of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, it turns out that we are far from using all the available resources of this fuel. According to the calculations, the availability of substrate in Poland makes it possible to operate biogas plants with a total capacity of up to 2 GW, which would mean the production of up to 8 billion cubic meters of biogas. Meanwhile, in 2023, gas imports to Poland amounted to 14.1 billion cubic meters, while domestic consumption reached 17 billion cubic meters. Supplies to Polish consumers were supplemented by domestic gas production, which amounted to more than 3.3 billion cubic meters. It's a pity that biomethane is still mainly the subject of conferences, presentations and press releases. The Energy and Climate Plan 2021-2030 did not include any provisions for biomethane development targets. So the potential is there, it just lies dormant.

On April 11th, Cenergy Holdings successfully participated at the Delphi Economic Forum IX.  Alexandros Benos, CFO of Cenergy Holdings, stated during his speech at the panel discussion “Forging the Energy Transition Landscape: Navigating the road to 2030”: Today’s energy transition has nothing to do with what humanity has previously experienced: It is driven by policy, not technological or economic forces. It is a non-linear and “multidimensional” process that could only be accelerated through investment incentives, keeping its focus on fairness and equality. Greece cannot stay behind during this transition; it already leads the way in RES and should call on Europe to clarify such common goals and offer motivation to private sector investors. Moreover, he highlighted Cenergy Holdings' unique role in contributing to the Greek industrial sector by successfully executing projects globally and promoting the role of Greece as a regional energy hub. Concluding, Alexandros Benos affirmed Cenergy Holdings' commitment to a fair, balanced, and sustainable energy transition with a strategy that both promotes economic growth and protects the ecosystem. #CenergyHoldings #HellenicCables #CorinthPpieworks #EnergyTransition #Economicgrowth #EnergyGoals

🔌 The first synchronous condenser for the stability of the Latvia's electric power system has been installed in the new Augstsprieguma tīkls AS station in Grobiņa: 💡 Latvia is a free and independent country, and so the energy system of Latvia should be. Only eight months remain until the moment when Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia will disconnect their grids from the Unified Power System of Russia, to which it has been historically connected. Currently, the frequency in Latvia's transmission grid is regulated from Russia, but with the help of this synchronous condenser and other equipment, we will do it ourselves. In recent years, Augstsprieguma tīkls AS has implemented many projects to prepare to synchronisation, Gatis Junghans, Member of the Board of Augstsprieguma tīkls AS said. 💡 At this moment, all power transmission line reconstruction and new line construction projects over 500 kilometeres in length throughout Latvia have already been completed. We are making significant progress towards achieving our set goal CINEA - European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency Klimata un enerģētikas ministrija/Ministry of Climate and Energy i Kaspars Melnis #BalticSynchro #CEFEnergy #EnergySecurity

🙌 DTEK Renewables Receives Technical Specifications for 650 MW To Connect the Wind Power Plant in Poltava Region DTEK Renewables, UWEA Member Company, is in the process of obtaining all the necessary #permits and #documents to prepare for the construction of DTEK Poltavska #WPP. The company has received technical specifications to connect 650 MW of capacity to the Ukrainian energy grid. The availability of technical specifications is an important prerequisite for the design of the future wind farm's power collection substation. Construction is due to start in 2025. 💬 "Wind energy has many strategic advantages - speed of construction, dispersed turbines, and the highest generation from early autumn to late spring. That is why it should become the basis for renewing Ukraine's energy potential in the coming years. Accordingly, we continue to comprehensively prepare for implementing the 650 MW Poltavska WPP project," said Oleg Solovei, Deputy CEO of DTEK Renewables. A second meteorological mast was recently installed in the Hlobynska community to conduct a wind monitoring campaign. Together with the first one, they are the largest ⏫ in Ukraine and have a height of 160 meters. Using two meteorological masts is due to the need for the most accurate assessment of key parameters such as wind flow directions and wind strength, as the #wind farm will be located over a very large area. 🦅 The team is also conducting #ornithological surveys. The specialists have already provided the company with an ornithological report for the six-month monitoring period of spring migration, which confirms the correctness of the previous wind turbine layout and that they do not affect bird migration. Next, ornithologists will carry out autumn migration studies near the prospective Wind Farm. At the same time, the company has started communicating with land users to allocate land plots for the further placement of five 330kV substations and wind turbines.

Thank you to Guy Chazan of the Financial Times for the opportunity to highlight the critical situation facing Ukraine’s energy sector. For DTEK 90% of our thermal generating capacity has been damaged or destroyed. We are working around the clock to restore power. We have a clear plan to do it. But we need help. Speaking to the FT, I outlined four priorities: 📌 Rapidly increasing energy imports – we need to reach 2.2-2.5GW to meet demand. 📌 Support from our neighbouring countries with transformers and generators from decommissioned power plants. 📌 Deals to buy new equipment, including things like open-cycle gas turbines. 📌 New credit lines to fund the urgent repair work needed today. We need concrete action now to avoid a disaster this winter. This is the message I’ll be sharing as the Ukraine Recovery Conference continues today. Yesterday energy was top of the agenda, and I’m grateful to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for putting it centre stage in his opening address. https://lnkd.in/evNhdWv5 #URC2024 #StandWithUkraine #FightForLight

Today I updated Eurelectric’s #PowerSummit24 about the critical energy situation facing Ukraine’s energy sector, two months since russia began a series of massive missile strikes against our power stations. Despite DTEK losing more than 90% of its generating capacity, we are confident in our plan to bring back a significant amount of this generation in time for winter. Today, my message to delegates, energy leaders and governments at Eurelectric was clear – please help us deliver this plan by doing three things: 1️⃣ Please give us old kit that you no longer need. With access to your decommissioned power stations, we can source vital equipment to bring our power stations back to life. 2️⃣ If you you have spare stocks you are unlikely to need this winter, please send them our way. Our need is real, urgent and acute. 3️⃣ Electricity imports from Europe are already a lifeline for millions, but unfortunately we need far more. I urge European regulators to raise the limit on electricity exports to the maximum 2.2 GW possible (from 1.7 GW today). Thank you to everyone I have met at Eurelectric in standing with us and joining our #FightForLight. https://lnkd.in/eJ3DRqRp #StandWithUkraine

Today we celebrate #WorldDayforSafetyandHealth. Looking at the official statistics provided by #ILO or #InternationalLaborOrganization it becomes clear that we cannot stop improving working conditions for our employees: Every day, 6,300 people die as a result of occupational accidents or work-related diseases more than 2.3 million deaths per year. 317 million accidents occur on the job annually; many of these resulting in extended absences from work. The human cost of this daily adversity is vast and the economic burden of poor occupational safety and health practices is estimated at 4 per cent of global Gross Domestic Product each year. #teampurple #safetyfirst #siemensenergy #zeroharm
