Major achievements in the fields of research and technical developmen and environment protection

Several measures were undertaken in order to keep the equipment in an appropriate technical state, ensuring an environmentally safe operation of the power plant.

At EW Dychow

  • Improving the quality of waste water disposed of into the river Bobr - preparatory works were carried out and project aims were developed for modernising the oil contaminated wastewater discharge system for the entire Dychow power plant.

    At ESP Żar

  • Restricting the leakage of contaminated wastewaters into the natural environment by making repairs to the draining system of the power tunnel.
  • Restricting water leakages leading to soil erosion at the Żar mountain and destruction of its natural surroundings, by making good the expansion joint at the upper water reservoir.
  • Restricting leakages and sipping of contaminated waters to the plant's lower reservoir by conducting repair and maintenance work at the plant's chamber and transport tunnel.

    At ESP Zarnowiec

  • Land reclamation, permitting the growth of greenery in the previously flooded region has been accomplished through the installation of new draining systems in the area adjacent to the power plant.
  • Restricting water leakage leading to erosion of soil at the upper water reservoir and destruction of its natural environment by sealing the expansions joints at the upper water reservoir.
  • Restricting leakages by creating a layer of asphaltic concrete and carrying out work securing the upper water reservoir, in order to prevent the destruction of flora in the adjacent areas.

    At EW Solina and at EW Myczkowce

  • Protecting the banks of the River San from erosion by water and improving the quality of its waters, as well as stabilising the flow in the river canal by replacing the bar at the outlet from the Myszkowce power plant's turbine, and carrying out repairs to the discharge canal.

  • Biomass
    Relatively rough statistics show that about 10 million tonnes of corn and rape straw is being burnt in the fields each year. The question that arises is whether Poland can afford such a wastefullness, or perhaps the mentioned products of harvest could be used in a better way?   | > |

    Heat from straw
    Generating 'clean' energy - from power of water, and renewable sources, that is wind, gas and biomass - has been an important issue all over the world for years.  | > |

    Wind Energy
    The use of wind is one of the essential opportunities for Polish power industry, since wind is an inexpensive and ecological source power. The European Union experts estimate that the power generated by wind turbines in Poland in 2005 could be 600MW, and in 2050 - already 6000MW.   | > |
