Poland scheduled power outages

Overview

In mid‑July 2026, Warsaw's municipal electricity provider began installing smart meters as part of a nationwide modernization of Poland’s energy system. The rollout required temporary power cuts in several Warsaw districts from 20‑23 July while underground cable connections were upgraded.

Following this, PGE Dystrybucja S.A. announced planned outages in central Poland for the first week of August. In the Łowicz region, interruptions were scheduled for 3–6 August, affecting various streets and villages such as Guźnia and Dąbkowice Górne. In Piotrków County, outages were set for 4–6 August, impacting localities including Borowa, Szydłów, and Sulejów.

Further modernization works scheduled for late August will affect the Bełchatów municipality. PGE Dystrybucja S.A. announced that residents in Dobiecin and Korczew may experience interruptions on 21 August, while Augustynów is scheduled for outages on 25 August. These upgrades are intended to improve regional energy security, enhance supply quality, and minimize future failure risks.
