IPP Portfolio: Dev-to-Hold

We develop and deliver into operation BESS projects in Poland as an Independent Power Producer.

Leader in BESS development

We develop, build, and operate grid-scale BESS assets as an Independent Power Producer (IPP).

Our IPP pipeline

IPP Pipeline

Long-term ownership of a 500+ MW BESS pipeline across Poland.

Grid Progress

We monitor and secure grid connection progress at every stage.

Ancillary services

BESS provides system support to keep the grid stable and secure.

Balancing services

BESS earns revenue by responding instantly to grid imbalances — currently the largest income source, driven by high Polish balancing prices.

A market builtfor flexibility

Poland's energy mix has rapidly shifted to renewables — driving an urgent need for flexible capacity, with BESS the only feasible option.

Poland's installed capacity, 2025–2040 (GW)

Stacked bar chart showing Poland's installed electricity capacity rising from 71 GW in 2025 to 127 GW in 2040, with renewable capacity growing from 50% to 69%.

Poland's energy mix — why BESS is the only path to 2040

  1. Ruled out:Gas — political risk

    Exposed to geopolitical and import risk, with CO₂ costs making it significantly less profitable by the mid-2030s.

  2. Ruled out:Nuclear — arrives too late

    Nuclear arrives after 2035, so it doesn't contribute to the supply gap that must be solved this decade.

  3. Ruled out:Coal — regulatory forced exit

    EU ETS carbon prices make coal increasingly uneconomical, with a phase-out intended by 2040.

  4. Viable:Renewables — the only scalable path

    Domestic, deployable now, cost-competitive — but intermittent at scale without storage.

  5. Viable:BESS — required to support it

    Supports renewable buildout, ensuring stable capacity regardless of short-term production spikes.
