Abstract

The article presents the results of research on the dependence of the electricity production capacities for wind energy on access to REE on the example of Poland. For the purposes of the research, the authors wrote a program called WE ARE Energy 1.0. The program contains classes that allow for a comprehensive analysis of the problem under study. Based on the data provided, it first optimizes the parameters of the forecasting model. Forecasts on production capacities for wind energy in Poland and two scenarios of this phenomenon development in a selected time horizon are generated. The program determines REE such as Nd, Dy, Pr, Tb demand scenarios based on electricity production capacities for wind energy. The potential of REE resources available on a global scale was also verified. Since it was established that these resources will be exhausted, an alternative source of acquisition was proposed, which is fly ash generated during the combustion of Polish coal. In each of the REE demand scenarios, the program determines the ratio of covering the demand for REE with elements recovered from the ashes. It was noticed that in most scenarios, this ratio takes a value greater than 100 %. The presented program allows conducting analogous analyses for each selected case, e.g. other EU member states.
