In the rolling landscape of Międzyrzecz Górny in southern Poland, a new energy project reflects a broader shift taking place across the country. While the village itself remains closely connected to tradition, its energy infrastructure is moving toward long term stability. A 1 MW photovoltaic powerplant, developed with LONGi’s back contact technology and delivered in cooperation with EPC partner Ekosun, stands as a practical example of how Polish commercial and industrial owners are responding to energy volatility with forward looking solutions.
This installation represents more than a technical achievement. It reflects a strategic decision shaped by rising electricity prices, regulatory uncertainty,and the growing importance of predictable operating costs. Across Poland,energy has evolved from a routine operational expense into a key business risk.For many C&I owners, controlling long term energy exposure has become essential to protecting margins and ensuring operational continuity.
Energy volatility forces Polish businesses to adopt on site power generation
As Poland moves through the energy market continues to experience price fluctuations and frequent regulatory adjustments. For commercial facilities and industrial sites, electricity costs have become increasingly difficult to forecast. Fuel price dynamics, grid constraints, and broader regional developments have introduced uncertainty into long term planning.
In response, business owners are reassessing how energy fits into their overall cost structure. Rather than relying entirely on grid electricity, on site solar generation is gaining momentum as a way to stabilize expenses over the long term. By building photovoltaic plants for self consumption or partial grid export, C&I owners can lock in a portion of their energy costs for decades and reduce exposure to sudden price increases.

Specific system design ensures stable output and predictable financial returns
The photovoltaic installation in Międzyrzecz Górny was designed with these business realities in mind. Built on land designated for renewable energy use, the project was implemented by Ekosun as the EPC contractor, while LONGi supplied high performance photovoltaic modules and the core technological foundation supporting the system.
Once fully operational, the plant is expected to generate approximately 1,004 MWh of electricity each year. This level of production provides a stable energy yield profile that supports predictable financial planning. Under current market conditions in Poland, such output can translate into substantial electricity cost savings through self consumption, as well as additional revenue when surplus electricity is delivered to the grid.
BC technology ensures reliability under real Polish operating conditions
Consistent long term performance depends not only on system design, but also on module behavior in real world conditions. LONGi’s back contact technology plays a central role in ensuring stable output throughout the year. By relocating all electrical contacts to the rear of the solar cell, the front surface remains fully available to absorb sunlight, improving overall conversion efficiency.
For the Polish climate, one of the most important advantages is performance under partial shading. Seasonal cloud cover, low sun angles in winter, and surrounding infrastructure can all affect daily generation. Back contact modules significantly reduce power losses under shading and lower the risk of hot spots, helping the system maintain output even when conditions are less than ideal. This reliability is critical for C&I owners who depend on predictable annual production to support long term cost planning.

Solar investments with LONGi technology strengthen resilience and responsible growth
Beyond financial benefits, the project contributes to Poland’s broader energy transition. With an estimated annual reduction of around 470 tonnes of CO₂ emissions, the plant supports national decarbonization goals while reinforcing the business owner’s environmental profile by utilizing high efficiency LONGi back contact modules.
For many Polish companies, sustainability is increasingly linked to resilience rather than branding alone. Reducing dependence on volatile energy markets while lowering emissions is now seen as a practical business strategy. The Międzyrzecz Górny project demonstrates how commercial solar installations can support operational stability, cost control, and long-term competitiveness at the same time.
As energy uncertainty continues to influence decision making across Poland, this 1 MW solar plant provides a clear reference point. It shows how proven technology, delivered through strong EPC collaboration, can turn energy volatility into long term value for C&I owners and business operators alike.
