Abstract

Purpose: It is necessary to systematically increase the share of RES (Renewable Energy Sources) in total production to reduce the share of coal-based energy. The article presents a detailed analysis and assessment of the use of RES in Poland, along with recommendations for the future. Design/Methodology/Approach: The article uses a literature review and analysis of the activities carried out in enterprises. Findings: The analysis carried out by the authors indicates that the most rapidly developing forms of RES in Poland are photovoltaics and wind farms. Practical Implications: Reducing CO2 emissions is still a significant challenge for us, one that also imposes enormous costs on the economy. The projected prospects for RES in Poland by 2030, although larger, still do not account for even half of the country's overall energy demand. RES in Poland should therefore be treated as a form of supporting energy production and a possibility to generate savings for both individuals and companies that can invest in RES installations and produce energy for their own needs or sell the excess energy to the grid. Originality/Value: The research results presented in the article present an assessment of the use of renewable energy sources in Poland, along with recommendations for the future.
