At the end of Q1 2025, Poland reached 21. 8 GW of installed PV capacity, of which 59% was microgeneration units and 41% was PV farms and small systems. The market has undergone a significant transformation – large PV farms above 1 MW have taken over the dominant role, accounting for half of new. Poland's cumulative solar capacity reached 24. 6 GW of solar in 2025, according to data collected by Agencja Rynku Energii (ARE) on behalf of the country's Ministry of Energy. The country ranked 6th among European Union (EU) nations in terms of cumulative installed capacity in 2024. The institute's analysis indicates utility-scale projects are driving Poland's solar expansion and will continue to do. Poland will reach an installed photovoltaic capacity of 20 gigawatts by the end of this year. Declining installation costs and public environmental awareness drive this boom. Supportive regulations, like tax credits for energy storage, encourage further investment.
