DEI Group expands into Poland with 277 MW renewable portfolio

DEI Group Poland renewable portfolio 277.3 MW €24 billion investment

The Greek electricity utility DEI Group (ΔΕΗ) signed an agreement with EDP Renewables Polska and its holding company to acquire a portfolio of renewable energy assets in Poland totaling 277.3 MW. The acquisition includes three operating wind farms (Ilza 54 MW, Tomaszow 46.5 MW, Poturzyn 30 MW), two operating solar parks (Pakoslaw 25.1 MW, Recz 19.8 MW) and two solar projects under development that will use cable‑pooling technology (Ilza CP 50.9 MW, Tomaszow CP 51 MW), slated to start operating in 2029. All projects are estimated to have a 35‑year lifespan.

The deal is part of DEI’s 2026‑2030 strategic plan, which earmarks €24 billion of investment to nearly double the group’s installed capacity to about 24.3 GW by 2030. The move follows DEI’s recent entry into the Hungarian market and aims to strengthen its presence across Central and South‑Eastern Europe. Poland’s renewable market is growing at over 17 % per year (2016‑2025) and targets more than 50 % of electricity from renewables by 2030, making it a key region for the group’s expansion.
