Energy represents one of the largest sources of greenhouse gas emissions that is causing climate change. It is critical to decarbonize electric grids across the globe by displacing carbon-polluting resources with carbon-free resources to reduce emissions and create clean energy access for all. This is why we prioritize storage solutions that are powered by renewables.

Impact Story

How this Renewable Project impacts the planet?

Wind power is one of the fastest growing energy sources in Poland. Due to dramatically falling development and operation costs, it is becoming the cheapest power source available. In contrast to non-renewable generation, wind power is not dependent on volatile international fuel markets and produces energy reliably without fuel costs for long lifetimes of up to 30 years. Wind energy is transforming electricity grids and is an essential part of energy supply in many regions. It is complementing solar generation with predictable and continuous production night and day. Due to efficient manufacturing techniques, wind turbines have the smallest carbon footprints of all power plants and mostly become carbon neutral after less than a year of operation.

Wind power creates numerous jobs in manufacturing, installation, maintenance and supporting services in Poland. Wind energy can be a growth driver for rural areas where you find the best conditions for wind energy. Turbines only need a very small piece of land which allows landowners to continue using their land for agriculture and other productive land uses. Turbines provide additional income for the landowners and can benefit traditionally underinvested communities.
