Vortex Energy: Supporting the energy transition in Poland

Vortex Energy is a leading renewable energy developer in Poland and Vitol’s first major investment in renewable power in Europe

Founded in 2004 in Germany, the company entered the Polish market in 2006, delivering over 400 MW of operational renewable generation capacity in wind and solar energy. Playing an active role in Europe’s decarbonisation strategy, Vortex has a development pipeline of over 3 GW, which Vitol acquired in January 2023.

A pioneer in the renewables sector in Poland, the company is driven by a diverse team of experts offering a full suite of services through the asset lifecycle. These services include developing greenfield wind and solar projects, as well as providing construction and operational management services.

Our intention is to initiate the construction of over 120 MW of PV solar and onshore wind projects over the next 12 months. Poland is among the largest emitters of carbon dioxide in Europe. The planned investments will help the country to reduce its emissions and its reliance on coal. Vortex will ultimately enable the sustainable, continued delivery of affordable electricity to Polish counterparties, as well as to the Central and Eastern Europe region.
