In 2025, Grupa Azoty obtained “white certificates” with an estimated market value of approximately PLN 60 million. This corresponds to energy savings of 25.9 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent (toe), i.e. the equivalent of burning nearly 26 thousand tonnes of crude oil. The awarded certificates take the form of property rights traded on the Polish Power Exchange (Towarowa Giełda Energii), and their sale will support the Group’s liquidity.
‘Modernising infrastructure and implementing low-energy solutions are processes that permanently reduce Grupa Azoty’s operating costs. Obtaining white certificates with an estimated market value of around PLN 60 million allows us to further monetise the achieved energy savings. We appreciate the efficient and substantive manner in which the Energy Regulatory Office processed our applications,’ emphasised Artur Chołody, Vice President of the Management Board of Grupa Azoty.
In accordance with accounting standards, the impact of the certificates obtained on EBITDA will be recognised over time. Since most certificates relate to investments in fixed assets, they are recognised in income proportionally over the depreciation period of the modernised installations.
The awarded certificates result from a broad scope of modernisation work, including, among others:
Certificates were awarded to the following companies in the Group: Grupa Azoty S.A., Grupa Azoty Kędzierzyn, Grupa Azoty Fosfory and Grupa Azoty Siarkopol.
