Poland's Renewable Energy Oversupply Forces Production Cuts
Poland has ordered significant cuts to the generation of renewable energy due to an oversupply of electricity, with record reductions affecting both wind and solar farms. The country's grid operator, Polskie Sieci Elektroenergetyczne SA, had to use special rules related to energy security threats to balance the power system during a period of increased production from solar panels and wind turbines.The oversupply of electricity led to the temporary halting of production from wind farms with a capacity of nearly 1.9 gigawatts, in addition to limiting production from photovoltaic farms. Despite positive weather conditions, installations totaling 4.5 gigawatts were idle, pushing the price of electricity at the balancing market to negative levels. Poland, historically reliant on coal-fired power, is facing challenges in transitioning to intermittent renewable sources, with grid constraints often leading to refusals for new projects. Despite the oversupply, some coal plants still need to operate to provide electricity during the night, and renewable developers may receive compensation for the forced pause in production.
