R.Power has appointed Polish EPC contractors Onde SA and Esix to build two utility-scale battery storage projects in Poland—Dziegielewo (300 MW/1200 MWh) and Gdansk (250 MW/1000 MWh)—with completion targeted for late 2027/early 2028, doubling the scale of its earlier CEE projects and bringing total BESS capacity under construction across the region to over 800 MW.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur reasons over.
◆ The Wire takeaway
Poland's grid now has proven buyers for utility-scale battery storage at scale, and the supply chain is following: if you make thermal management, BMS software, grid interconnect hardware, or power electronics at the 250-300 MW tier, R.Power and the developers competing with them just became customers with funded, site-ready projects and hard delivery dates.
