This is where PV was always the main beneficiary.<\/p>\n<p>The wind and solar basket for projects above 1 MW will provide support for up to 1 GW of total capacity. This is where the majority of the volume was consumed by wind.<\/p>\n<p>That is why after the November 2018 auction and the one planned for December 2019 as much as 3.5 GW of new onshore wind capacity can be built. This is mostly due to the cost advantage of this technology &#8211; wind power investors are able to offer lower electricity prices.<\/p>\n<p>However, if the supply of wind projects is used up as a result of this year\u2019s auction, the entire support in that basket may be awarded to PV.<\/p>\n<h5><span lang=\"EN-GB\">New wind power projects in Poland are not developed due to distance (setback) restrictions under the Wind Turbine Act of July 2016.<\/span><\/h5>\n<h5><span lang=\"EN-GB\">The \u201c10H rule\u201d introduced by that act does not allow wind turbines to be located closer to residential housing than 10 times the turbine height.<\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">This excludes almost the entire Polish territory, as Poland is a densely populated country.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span lang=\"EN-GB\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignleft wp-image-2305 size-thumbnail\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%27http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%27%20width%3D%27150%27%20height%3D%27150%27%20viewBox%3D%270%200%20150%20150%27%3E%3Crect%20width%3D%27150%27%20height%3D%27150%27%20fill-opacity%3D%220%22%2F%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" data-orig-src=\"http:\/\/psew.pl\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/08\/Janusz_Gajowiecki_head-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Poland has one of the largest wind power potentials in the whole of Europe, but it is not utilized.

In the development scenario, onshore wind capacity could reach 24 GW by 2040.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\">Moreover, in next year&#8217;s auction, budgets will be allocated to build hydro power plants above 1 MW (up to 20 MW in total), hydro power plants below 1 MW (10 MW in total), agricultural biogas plants up to 1 MW (20 MW), landfill and sewage biogas plants with unit capacity below 1 MW (10 MW), but the budget allocated to dedicated biomass co-firing installations above 1 MW will allow for projects with a total capacity of up to 100 MW.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Support for 1 GW in large installation planned in 2020 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6239,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Will the wind fight for a place in the 2020 auction?
