Solar power in Poland

Solar energy in Poland includes the production of solar thermal energy and solar photovoltaics. Solar thermal, used for heating water, used 1,700,000 square metres (18,000,000 sq ft) of installed solar thermal collectors at the end of 2014. This corresponds to about 1,200 MWth capacity. Solar collectors are the second largest source of renewable heat in Poland, after biomass heating plants. In 2014, Poland was ranked fourth in sales of solar collector installations among European countries.[1]

gollark: Well, you can ask people to not put irrelevant random images in, but they'll probably do it for some stupid reason, and it's good if they can at least be mildly more efficient about it.
gollark: There's JPEG-XL or something, which will apparently allow *lossless* higher-efficiency representation of existing JPEGs. Very exciting.
gollark: Consider all those annoying mostly irrelevant images in articles. Those don't really need to actually be very high quality, and if you can lossily compress them to 20KB or so you can really shave off loading times.
gollark: Although vector graphics would often be nicer, they're not always practical.
gollark: It's perfectly fine for other things where you can get nice small images with little perceptible quality loss.
