Poland opens the final round of its 2026 renewable energy auctions on Monday, offering developers contracts for solar and wind power worth billions of zloty as the country pushes ahead with its clean-energy build-out.

The Energy Regulatory Office, known as URE, has scheduled the solar photovoltaic and onshore wind auctions for 9 and 10 November. The two sessions are the last of seven auction rounds running from 2 to 10 November, covering more than 76 terawatt-hours of renewable electricity with a total maximum value of about 24.9 billion zloty, or roughly 6.34 billion dollars.

Monday's session is for solar and wind projects of up to one megawatt, competing for 11.25 terawatt-hours valued at up to 3.825 billion zloty. Tuesday's session covers larger projects above one megawatt, with 53.25 terawatt-hours on offer valued at up to 14.1 billion zloty. Bids will be judged on price alone, and only new installations can take part. Developers must hold an auction admission certificate obtained through the Online Auction Platform.

The auctions form part of Poland's 2022-2027 renewable support framework, which originally targeted about nine gigawatts of new solar capacity and three gigawatts of onshore wind. Poland installed 3.6 gigawatts of solar in 2025, according to data collected by the Energy Market Agency on behalf of the Ministry of Energy. Since 2016, auctions run by the regulator have contracted nearly 307 terawatt-hours of renewable electricity worth close to 77 billion zloty.
