Barbara Michalowska Agri-PV Manager at CORAB S.A.

How do you describe the role of Corab S.A. in the national and international photovoltaic market?

Barbara Michalowska: Corab S.A. is a leading manufacturer of photovoltaic mounting systems in Poland and on international markets. The company has been operating in the industry for over 30 years and is one of the main suppliers of photovoltaic components in Poland, as well as an exporter to numerous foreign markets, including countries in Europe, Africa and Asia. Corab specializes in providing advanced technological structures for rooftop and ground-mounted photovoltaic installations, including agri-photovoltaic systems.

What is your position in the company?

I work as the Head of the Agri PV Department at Corab S.A. My tasks include managing projects related to agri-photovoltaics, coordinating activities between departments, and providing technical and strategic advice. I am responsible for the development of the PV market in agriculture and the implementation of modern energy solutions that integrate solar energy production with agricultural activities.

What sets Corab apart from the competition?


Corab S.A. offers a wide range of products related to photovoltaics, from standard mounting systems to advanced agri-photovoltaic-solutions, modules, power storage systems and charging infrastructure. The company also offers training courses for installers at the Corab Academy. What sets us apart is the quality and innovation of our mounting systems, but also the technical and advisory support we provide to our clients. Our products are designed with durability and ease of installation in mind, while also being customized to meet the individual needs of our clients. Additionally, Corab continually invests in research and development, to deliver new advanced solutions to the market.

What is your market focus and what are the advantages of being based in Poland?
Corab S.A. in general focuses on European markets, particularly in Central and Eastern Europe, but is also expanding its operations on other continents. Being based in Poland gives us first access to a skilled workforce, second a modern infrastructure, and a good strategic location in the centre of Europe, which facilitates exports to other markets. Poland is also one of the fastest-growing photovoltaic markets in Europe, creating many opportunities for growth.

What developments do you expect in the Polish PV economy in the next 12 months and their impact on the company?

In the next 12 months, I expect continued dynamic growth in the photovoltaic market in Poland, particularly in the industrial and agricultural installation segments. The development of energy storage technologies and increasing environmental awareness among consumers will drive this market. For Corab S.A., this means the opportunity for further expansion and an increase in demand for our innovative solutions, especially in the context of agri-photovoltaics. Additionally, legislative changes related to renewable energy may open new business opportunities.
