Poland’s electricity system, right now

What Poland is generating, using and trading across its borders, from PSE’s own figures every quarter hour, with its pumped storage and the batteries PSE reports drawn inside it.

The energy storage type PSE began reporting to ENTSO-E in September 2026 is the only public figure for Polish batteries running, and it carries far less than the batteries known to run: from 1 to 20 October it showed 135 MWh going out and 7 MWh coming in, while Turośń Kościelna alone holds 800 MWh. PSE has registered no battery as a unit of its own on the platform, though Turośń and Ełk, at 200 MW each, are above the 100 MW at which units are listed one by one. The type is PSE’s production type B25, charging and discharging reported separately. Every battery running and being built.

The last 24 hours

Reading the day.

Generation by type, stacked from the steady plant at the bottom to the plant that moves at the top, with the borders’ net import as the pale band at the bottom and the load PSE had to meet drawn over it. Where the stack is above the line, Poland is sending power abroad or into storage. Beneath, on the same clock, the energy storage type PSE reports: above its line it is sending power out, below it taking it in. Pumped storage, which is far larger, has its own panel further down, over seven days.

PSE publishes a quarter hour about 40 minutes after it ends, and its load can land a quarter hour or two after the generation by type; the day ends at the newest quarter hour every large type has reported.

The cables

Physical flow on each border that carries power, in the same quarter hour. Imports to the right, exports to the left, in megawatts. The line to Belarus carries nothing. A border that has not yet reported the quarter hour is drawn at its newest figure, and the flow caption says which.

PSE publishes no frequency on the platform, so there is no frequency panel here.

The newest quarter hour, by type

Every production type PSE reports, in megawatts, in the colour of its band in the day above.

Pumped storage and the batteries PSE reports, over seven days

Reading the storage.

Reading.

Pumped storage is Poland’s large store and PSE reports it in full, both ways. The energy storage type is drawn on the same scale, so its size against pumped storage is honest.

The large units, one by one

Every generation unit of 100 MW or more PSE reports to the platform, over the last day, added up by power station in the table. PSE’s own report covers about a hundred units, published the day after; the large power units page reads it back to June 2024.

The units by power station, as a table

Every figure is PSE’s, published on the ENTSO-E Transparency Platform under Regulation (EU) 543/2013: actual generation per production type (16.1.B and C) and actual total load (6.1.A) every quarter hour, physical flows across each border (12.1.G), and actual generation per generation unit of 100 MW or more (16.1.A). PSE publishes a quarter hour about 40 minutes after it ends. The page opens with the last reading the site holds and reads the platform again behind it when that reading is more than ten minutes old; the strip says when a fresher quarter hour is being read, and how long the platform took to answer the one on screen. Times are Warsaw time. Poland publishes no live frequency on the platform. Nothing on this page is modelled; where a reading is missing the panel says which.
