Poland's 2024-2025 energy storage subsidy programs are a key element in the country's energy transition. With the growing demand for stable energy sources and the integration of renewables into the grid, energy storage facilities take on special importance.
Investments in energy storage facilities are key to Poland's energy transition. They increase the flexibility of the energy system and promote the integration of renewable energy sources into the grid.
Funding for the program comes from the Modernization Fund (FM), which underscores the importance of the project for modernizing the energy system. By 2030, Poland could receive about 60 billion zlotys from the FM for energy transition goals. The call for applications runs from June 17, 2024 to June 16, 2025, or until funds are exhausted.
Subsidies are available for energy storage facilities, as long as they are integrated with the energy source being implemented as part of the investment. The program provides support covering up to 20% of eligible costs. The continuation of both programs is planned with a larger budget.
