More and more renewable energy in urban buildings!

23.07.2026 r.

Thanks to yet another eco-friendly project based on renewable energy sources, photovoltaic systems and energy storage units are being installed in 31 public buildings! The work is already halfway through!

Solar panels – such as those shown in the photos at Public Nursery School No. 26 in Opatowice – together with energy storage systems, have already been installed at 13 sites (on the roofs of the remaining buildings, not on the ground), with more awaiting installation. Most of the work will be completed by the end of the summer holidays; the tender for the final six installations is currently underway.
In Opatowice, the capacity of the 113 panels installed in the garden is around 50 kW, whilst the energy storage system has a capacity of 81 kWh. The total capacity of all the installations in the project amounts to as much as 852.69 kWp!  The investment will enable significant savings on electricity bills for the schools and will also have a substantial environmental impact.
The renewable energy installations will be accompanied by photovoltaic bike shelters with phone-charging facilities at each school, as well as educational mini-play areas at the nurseries.
The project covers the following institutions:
– Public Nursery Schools Nos. 2, 9, 11, 17, 20, 22, 24, 26
– Primary Schools Nos. 1, 5, 9, 13, 15
– School and Nursery Complex No. 1,
– the municipal crèche buildings on Wyszyńskiego, Strzybnicka and Bema Streets
– as well as the buildings of the Municipal Social Welfare Centre at 9 and 11 Janasa Street, 48 Sienkiewicza Street and 211 Grzybowa Street,
– the TOTU building in Karłuszowiec,
– the Tarnowskie Góry Cultural Centre in Śródmieście-Centrum and in Opatowice.

As part of the works, the roofs of Primary School No. 8, Nursery Schools Nos. 17 and 20, and School and Nursery Complex No. 4 are also being renovated. This project is co-funded by the Upper Silesian-Zagłębie Metropolis.

The project entitled ‘Construction of renewable energy installations in public buildings in the town of Tarnowskie Góry’ is co-financed from funds received under the European Funds for Silesia 2021–2027 (Just Transition Fund) under Priority: FESL.10.00 – European Funds for Transition, and Measure: FESL.10.06 – Development of distributed energy based on renewable energy sources.
Total project value: 14,239,330.28 PLN
Of which co-financing: PLN 12,103,430.75
