ANNUAL REPORT

Photovoltaic energy is developing in Poland at a very dynamic pace. In the last two years, several photovoltaic power plants with an installed capacity greater than 10MW have been commissioned, allowing for the preparation of a report containing their aggregate technical, economic, and financial parameters.

The Energy Market Agency S.A. has prepared an analysis regarding the operation of photovoltaic farms in Poland, based on available data on the productivity, profitability, and debt levels of these installations. In our opinion, such an analysis should facilitate the making of preliminary investment decisions for new photovoltaic farm projects. The report will present aggregate data for the entire PV sector (with a capacity greater than or equal to 10MW), as well as averaged data converted to the production unit MWh, in order to present benchmarks for the operation of PV farms in Poland. 

To capture any potential changes in the market, technical and economic data will be presented for the years 2024-2025.
The scope of the analysis primarily includes:

1. Comparison of monthly efficiency of PV farms in Poland.
   Additionally, there is a possibility to compare the efficiency of PV farms owned by a given enterprise against the rest of the photovoltaic subsector.
2. Compilation of costs and profitability of production activities for photovoltaic technology.
3. Presentation of benchmark values (max and min) for individual economic parameters of the analyzed group of PV farms.
