Written by The development of photovoltaics in Poland
Among the newly admitted EU countries only the Czech Republic recorded a very large development of photovoltaics. Unfortunately it did not happen in Poland, due to legal and political obstacles, which need to be eliminated, otherwise Poland will stay behind most European countries. As a consequence Poland will be forced into the consumption of stocks produced by other countries. In order to develop the PV market in Poland some significant changes to the position of the Polish government are required, such as:
- inclusion the realistic potential of solar energy in the strategic planning of Polish energy policy,
- start working, as fast as possible, on introduction of feed-in-tariffs,
- removing unnecessary administrative barriers, simplifying of the provisions of law and adapting it to the small distributed systems,
- the possibility of financing investments in photovoltaic systems from the EU and governmental programs,
- creating the target of 1.8 GWP installed capacity in 2020 and 10 GWP in 2030,,
- running the research program on future-oriented photovoltaic technologies.
