Highlights

  • Poland targets a share of renewables of 32.6% in its final consumption and of 56% in its power mix in 2030.
  • GHG emissions are targeted to be cut by 50% in 2030 compared to their 1990 levels.
  • PGE and ENEA account for 45% of total power generation.
  • Orlen Group dominates oil and gas supply.
  • The share of coal and lignite in the power mix has declined by 34 points since 2010 to 55% in 2024, while the share of renewables rose by 24 pp to 31%.
  • Solar capacities were multiplied by 3 since 2021, reaching 20 GW in 2024.
  • Electricity prices are around 40% below the EU average for households, and quite similar to EU average for industry.
  • Total energy consumption slightly decreased in 2024 Mtoe (-1%), after a sharp reduction from 2021 to 2023 (-5.5%/year).
  • Electricity consumption per capita is around 30% below EU average.
  • Oil is the main energy source for final consumption (41% in 2024).
  • The European Commission approved a €1.2bn scheme to support development of 5.4 GWh ESS. Under the KPO the country aims to integrate 9 GW of RES and 1.4 GW of ESS by 2035.

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    The Ministry of Climate and Environment is in charge of the country's energy policy, markets, and infrastructure, along with energy efficiency and energy security matters, and climate policy. It oversees public companies dealing with coal production, electricity, and petroleum extraction.

  • Energy Supply

    Resources:

    Although Poland is relatively poor in conventional hydrocarbons (oil reserves of 10 Mt and natural gas reserves of 88.5 bcm), the country has substantial coal (22.7 Gt) and lignite reserves (5.1 Gt) (2024). The recoverable shale gas resources are estimated by the Polish Geological Institute at between 346 and 768 bcm.

  • Energy Prices

    Gas:

    After a period of relative stability between 2015 and 2019, gas prices for households in euros increased by 30% in 2022 and by 28% in 2023. Taxes accounted for 1% of the residential price in 2022 but went back to 19% in 2023. Polish gas prices in 2023 were 48% lower than the EU average for households.

  • Energy Consumption

    In 2024, total energy consumption per capita was 2.6 toe (around 5% below the EU average), including around 4 100 kWh of electricity (28% below the EU average).

  • Issues & Prospects

    Poland is confronted with the challenge of modernising and restructuring of the coal and lignite sector.

    According to the energy policy, "Towards Poland's 2040 Energy Mix", the energy demand is expected to ramp up by 20% to 25% by 2040.
