Project Description
Transition Impact
The Project’s transition impact stems from three factors:
(i) the demonstration effect of new replicable behaviour and activities by helping to build the Project during the continuing regulatory uncertainty period in Poland and sending a strong demonstration signal of bankability of such projects,
(ii) setting standards for corporate governance and business conduct, through promoting progress towards meeting the EU’s green energy targets and the use of best environmental practices; and
(iii) expansion of a competitive market, through a market based approach to the sale of electricity and green certificates, and therefore contributing to increased liquidity and transparency of the Polish energy market.
