The projects are located in Wielkopolska and the Mazovian Voivodeship. The plants are to be commissioned by 2026 and 2029 respectively and will contribute to the stability of the Polish electricity grid.

With these projects, EDP is further expanding its storage business and has already achieved 100 percent of its storage expansion target for the period 2024-2026.
