The following months – already with the new law on renewable energy sources – may be a record in terms of installed capacity in wind energy. It is estimated that more than 1 GW of new capacity this year – says Paul Przybylski from Siemens. Late last year, the total power from renewable energy sources amounted to nearly 6 GW. Dynamically also develops solar power, and over the next few years to develop the first offshore wind farms.
– The situation in the wind energy market and generally renewable energy has become more clear. It’s all thanks to the recently passed law on renewable energy sources. Certain aspects will come into force on 1 January 2016, therefore, we expect a very large number of new projects in onshore wind energy this year – emphasizes in an interview with the agency Business Newseria Paul Przybylski, Director of Industry Wind Power and Renewables in Siemens. May 4, the Act on RES, crucial for the development of renewable energy. The new support scheme will be based on green energy auction carried out depending on demand and rozpisywanych by the government. To be able to use the old system of green certificates, entrepreneurs and investors will try to move projects later this year.
– I think we had a chance for a record year in terms of connecting new power, over 1 GW – notes expert and indicates that in 2016 in connection with the launch of a new auction system, it is possible the investment gap. – The investor will have to take part in the auction. The first is expected in middle of next year. Thus, considering the project preparation cycle and the cycle of production, new wind farms will again built only in 2017 – explains. Energy Regulatory Office data show that at the end of last year, the total capacity installed in Poland renewable energy sources amounted to more than 6 GW, of which by far the largest (3.8 GW) in wind turbines. Slowly developing power plants biogas and biomass (including less than 2 GW). While dynamically developing solar power plants. Their power of their increased more than tenfold, but is still only 21 MW. – Also, a lot of projects, and perhaps in the new auction system they will have the opportunity to implement and increase the installed capacity in other categories – says Przybylski. For several years, at a similar level keeps the power with hydroelectric . At the end of the first quarter of this year was close to 980 MW, for comparison, in 2006 there were only 43 MW less.
The expert believes that in the long run develop Also offshore wind energy. Unfortunately, this investment is not only difficult and time-consuming but also costly. – We speak now of the order of 300-400 MW farms. The cost to build a 1 MW is the government 4 million, so we are talking about billions thick – explains Przybylski. – Currently, the two companies are working intensively on the development of such projects. I think that after 2020, one of them or both will have a chance to build such facilities on the Polish Baltic Sea.
Przybylski shows that the renewable industry is working on technological innovations that investments were like the most efficient and cost of producing energy as low as possible. Investors in onshore and offshore wind energy work towards increasing power turbines and build ever taller towers. – It is estimated that the offshore wind energy target that industry has assumed, that the descent of the costs less than 100 euros per MWh after 2020. This is possible thanks include technical innovations and extended the turbine from 20 to 25 years – comments Paul Przybylski in an interview during the ECG in Katowice.
