  • The transformation of Poland’s energy sector, including measures to support the ailing coal mining sector, could cost up to €135 billion by 2030.
  • Yet, Poland is committed to phase out lignite by 2044 and hard coal by 2049.
  • When it comes to solar, the pace of development has exceeded projections, with more than 10 gigawatts installed by mid-2022, a level that the government assumed would be reached only in the mid-2030s when it adopted its energy policy in 2019.
