Poland operates the EU's most coal-intensive electricity grid: lignite and hard coal together still covered ~63% of generation in 2024, down from 80% a decade earlier. PSE, the national TSO, runs the single PL bidding zone synchronously coupled to Germany, Czechia and Slovakia, plus DC links to Sweden (SwePol) and Lithuania (LitPol). The country has no commercial nuclear power — yet — but the 2022 plan to build six AP1000 reactors at Choczewo (3 GW first phase, online 2036) and a separate Korean APR1400 project at Pątnów make Poland Europe's largest planned nuclear newbuild after the UK.

Solar exploded from 1 GW in 2020 to over 22 GW in 2025, driven by aggressive net-metering reforms; on sunny midsummer days, solar now covers a third of demand. Offshore wind in the Baltic is set to deliver the first 1 GW from Baltic Power and Baltica-2 by 2026.

FAQ — Poland

How is the electricity price determined?
Day-ahead prices in Poland are auctioned each morning around 13:00 CEST on Nord Pool / EPEX. The cheapest mix of generation that meets demand wins; that price applies for the next 24 hours.
When is electricity cheapest?
Today's average wholesale price in Poland is 0.405 zł /kWh. Cheapest hours typically fall between 00:00–04:00 CEST and around midday on sunny / windy days.
Why is my electricity bill higher than the spot price?
The wholesale spot price you see here is one component. Your retail bill in Poland also adds electricity tax, grid fees, VAT and a supplier markup — total roughly 30–60 % above wholesale.
How accurate is this data?
Source: ENTSO-E Transparency Platform, the EU regulator's data feed. Updated every 10–20 minutes.
Are tomorrow's prices already known?
Tomorrow's day-ahead prices for Poland appear on this page automatically once Nord Pool / EPEX closes the auction around 13:00 CEST each day.
