At the end of Q1 2025, Poland reached 21.8 GW of installed PV capacity, of which 59% was microgeneration units and 41% was PV farms and small systems. The market has undergone a significant transformation – large PV farms above 1 MW have taken over the dominant role, accounting for half of new capacity. Photovoltaics accounted for 64% of Poland's RES capacity, and its share of RES power generation rose to 31.5%.

Poland remains at the forefront of the EU in terms of PV capacity increase, ranking 5th in 2024 with an increase of 3.7 GW. Globally, it ranked 11th. Despite a decline in momentum in 2023-2024, Poland's PV sector is growing at a rate similar to mature markets such as Germany and Spain. Industry forecasts indicate that up to 38 GW of PV capacity could be reached as early as 2028, government forecasts (the National Energy and Climate Plan) indicate that 38 GW of system capacity could be reached in 2035. Poland also stands out for its high rate of installed PV capacity per capita at the end of 2024 – better than in the US or China.
