“…The results of the research by Kemp, Loorbach and Rotmans (2007) [96] confirmed the need for radical changes in functional systems and in government policy, but also in current governance systems (social orientation), natures and patterns of interaction in collective issues). However, on the basis of previous works [43,[97][98][99], it should be concluded that although a full-fledged energy transformation is cost-intensive, it becomes economically and technically feasible. Currently, most of the necessary technologies are fully available and their costs have significantly decreased.…”

The Challenges of Poland’s Energy Transition

2021

The ongoing climate changes necessitate an effective climate policy. The energy transition is now an important topic and problem, especially in Poland. (1) The undertaken analysis of the problem of energy transition is important for political, social and technological reasons. Political, because it shows the weakness of the implementation of Polish energy policy in regards to climate change. Social, because energy transition will bring about significant social changes in the largest industrial region of Poland. Technological, as the departure from fossil fuels requires the introduction of other sources of energy on a massive scale, for which Poland is not prepared. The aim of the study was to critically analyse the activities to date in the field of energy transition in Poland. The second goal of the analysis was an attempt to answer the question of whether the process of energy transition and achieving the goals set in the EU’s European Green Deal are possible at all until 2050. (2) To achieve the goals, the system method and the decision-making method were primarily used. These methods allowed for an examination of the main determinants of the Polish energy transformation. (3) The main results include the confirmation, contrary to the announcements of the Polish government, that despite the adoption in Poland of the strategy “Poland’s energy policy until 2040”, the effective implementation of the energy transition before 2050 is not only very difficult, but may even be impossible to implement in the assumed time. This is due to political, economic, social and technological conditions. Coal energy is outdated, expensive and ineffective. Due to natural conditions, wind energy is not able to meet the energy demand of the industry. The development of nuclear energy is only in the planning phase. (4) To sum up, in the next thirty years, Poland will not be able to achieve the assumed effects of the energy transition, which is in contradiction with the official declaration of the government.

“…Преобладающей тематикой является модернизация оборудования и технологических процессов , корпоративное управление и привлечение инвестиций (Bennett, 2016;Pollin and Callaci, 2016;Щербакова и др., 2017). Вопросы государственного управления ТЭК рассматриваются главным образом через призму мировой торговли энергоносителями и налогово-тарифного регулирования (Chibilev et al, 2012;Коломейцева, 2014;Goulding et al, 2017). Подобные исследования важны, но они лишь косвенно характеризуют деятельность органов управления ТЭК.…”

“…Possibilities for decoupling environmental impacts from economic growth in the new member states from Central and Eastern Europe were examined in [21]. Detailed analysis of significant changes in the Lithuanian energy sector was presented in [22,23]. A broad spectrum of issues related to the deployment of renewable energy sources (RES), effectiveness of their support instruments and promotion policy measures was discussed in [24][25][26].…”

Comparative Analysis of the Energy Sector Development Trends and Forecast of Final Energy Demand in the Baltic States

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The paper provides a comparative analysis of economic growth in Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and discusses differences in development of the main sectors during the period 2000–2016. Based on detailed analysis of energy sector development, the driving factors influencing changes in primary energy consumption in each country and in the Baltic region are discovered. Increase of renewable energy sources (RES) consumption in the Baltic region over this period by 73.6% is emphasized. The paper presents valuable insights from analysis of trends in final energy consumption by sectors of the national economies, branches of the manufacturing sector, and by energy carriers. Long-term relationships between economic growth and final energy consumption are established. An econometric model was applied to predict final energy demand in the Baltic States for the 2020 horizon. It is emphasized that growing activities in the manufacturing and transport sectors will cause increase of final energy demand in all three countries. Based on detailed analysis of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions trends some positive shifts are shown and the necessity of new policies in the transport sector and agriculture is identified. Changes of emission intensity indicators are examined and a potential for decoupling of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from economic growth in Estonia is indicated.
