The monthly production of electricity by generation sources connected to the National Electricity System. Gross electricity is the whole generated energy, including the one used by power plants for own needs, before feeding to the grid.
Description of sources:
Description of sources:
Bioenergy: biomass, biogas, biomass co-firing
Other: in source publication as ‘other fuels’ used by industrial power plants – e.g. oil, coke oven gas
Photovoltaics: professional power plants and prosumer installations
Water: run-of-river and reservoir hydroelectric power plants
Other RES: hybrid installations and other unspecified
Storage – PHES: pumped-hydro energy storage
Depending on the context of data usage, it is worth noting that energy storage units do not produce electricity, but feed back what was absorbed while charging. As a result, we don’t include them in the monthly sum nor in the percentage share chart.Electricity production in Poland
