General information Poland is a medium-size country, with an area of 312 679 km2 (including inland waters as well as a part of internal waters), situated in the central-eastern part of Europe. Poland is a Baltic state. In 2006 the population of the country was 38,125 million inhabitants, of which 23,401 million (61,3%) was urban and 23,401 million (38,7%) rural population. The average density of population was 122 inhabitants per 1 km2. The neighbours of Poland are: at the western border Germany (467 km), at the south Czech Republic (796 km) and Slovakia (541 km); at the east Ukraine (535 km) and Belarus (418 km); at the north Lithuania (104 km), the Kalinigrad Area of Russian Federation (210 km) and the Baltic Sea (440 km). The area of Poland extends from latitudes 49000 and 54050 N and longitudes 140 08 and 240 09 E. 2 www.4biomass.eu Biomass - Fostering the Sustainable Usage of Renewable Energy Sources in Central Europe – Putting Biomass into Action! Poland is an agricultural and industrial country with high area of agricultural land and forests. The predominance of lowlands, ca. 75,1% of the total area is very conductive to agriculture. The areas elevated between 200 and 300 m above see level equal 16,2%, between 300 and 1000 - 8,5%, and only 0,2% of the area is 1000 m above see level. In 2007 agriculture land covers the area of 19 069 thaus. ha, in this arable land orchards, permanent meadows and pastures of 18 333 thous. ha. Forest land as well as woody and bushy land covers 9 491 thous. ha and wasteland 489 thous. ha. In 2007 the share of agricultural land in the total area of the country was about 61% and the share of forests and woods ca. 30%. The area of devastated and degraded land requiring reclamation and management in 2006 was 65 thous. ha (0,2% of the country total area.). Devastated and degraded land is a land which has lost its utility value as well as land the utility value has declined due to a worsening in natural conditions or environmental changes and industrial activity, etc. Since 1999 Poland has three-tier administration system. There are gminas (gminy), powiats (powiaty) and voivodships (wojewodztwa). On 2006 there were 314 poviats, 65 cities with poviat status, 2478 gminas and 16 voivodships. Main industries are: fuel and power industry, iron and steel, machine and electrical engineering, electrical electronic, metal, chemical, mineral, food, timber, paper making, light industries. Since 1990 a process of social and political transition had been initiated in Poland. It included deep reforms and structural transformation of the economy, i.e. departure from central planning of the economy and introduction of market principles. The beginnings of reform were difficult: large decline of industrial production, high inflation and more than 20% decrease of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) had occurred. As early as in 1992 the downward economic trends have been however stopped and since 1993 the economy started to develop, reaching in 1995-1998 the GDP growth rate at the level of 4-7%. In 2006 GDP reached 1 057 855 million PLN (ca. 271 586 million Euro), 27 742 PLN per capita (7 122 Euro per capita). The GDP rate reached: 6,2% in 2006, 6,6% in 2007 and 4,9% in 2008. Poland has relatively large resources of solid fuels (hard coal and brown coal), modest reserves of natural gas, insignificant of crude oil. Among the renewable Poland has considerable resources of biomass. There is also a possibility of wider application of wind and geothermal energy. In 2007 energy production from renewables reached 208 666 TJ (6,9% of total primary energy production and in 2006 respectively 210 552 TJ – 6,5% of total primary energy production. Biomass is the dominant source and has large share of utilization, for local heating ca. 70%, for electricity ca. 29% and 1% for district heating. 3 www.4biomass.eu Biomass - Fostering the Sustainable Usage of Renewable Energy Sources in Central Europe – Putting Biomass into Action!

GUS, Warszawa, 2008. Electricity production from RES reached 6,2 TWh (according to Green Certificates to February 2009), and RES installed capacity was 1678 MW in 2008. Biomass and biogas power plants produce ca. 47% of RES electric energy in 2007. Policy assessment in partner countries Renewable energy has become more and more important in Polish energy policy. The objectives of the policy are based on Poland’s memberships the European Union, from implementation the RES Directives and from other international agreements in this: achieving reduction of carbon dioxide emission in 2008-2012 to the level of 1988 – ratification of the Kyoto Protocol in 2002. Poland’s potential of biomass are relatively very high. Technical potential is estimated from 408 PJ/a to 755 PJ/a. (depends on sources: [13] / EC BREC). A potential of wood biomass is estimated at about 24,5 PJ /a to 59 PJ /a i.e.: 5 234 000 m3, (3 101785 000 kg). The potential of wood from orchard is estimated at about 15 PJ/a to 22PJ/a. [14]. The technical potential for biogas production is estimated at about 674 millions m3 i.e. 26 PJ, and municipal waste at 2 millions ton/a and 8 millions waste disposal. The biomass economic potential, defined as a technical potential that can be provided at economically profitable levels, is estimated from 160 PJ/year to 600 PJ/year. (depends on sources). 4 www.4biomass.eu Biomass - Fostering the Sustainable Usage of Renewable Energy Sources in Central Europe – Putting Biomass into Action! Table 1.

Biomass in applied in power sector mainly in co-firing with coal and in a small scale – in individual houses, estates, on the countryside, and in small towns as a dispersed energy production in Poland. Since 2005 for promotion and to support energy from RES is used a quota obligation system with tradable green certificates. Those obligations are included in the strategic documents that shape Polish ecological policy and energy policy and in the main legal act - the Energy Law (Dz.U. z 2006 r. Nr 89, poz. 625 z późn. zm.) and Ordinances to this act. According to the Ordinance of Ministry of Economy from 14 August 2008 the obligation of buying or producing electricity form RES is fulfilled if in each utility the share of electricity with the certificates of origin in the total sale of electricity in a given year is not lower than: Year Share 2008 2009 2010 -2012 2013 2014 2015 2017 7,0% 8,7% 10,4% 10,9% 11,4% 11,9% 12,9% The Act on biocomponents and liquid fuels established indicative national targets for biofuels. Obligatory share for biofuels on transport fuel market for the years 2008-2014 are as follows: Year 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 Share 3,45% 4,60% 5,75% 6,20% 6,65% 7,10% 7,55% 5 www.4biomass.eu Biomass - Fostering the Sustainable Usage of Renewable Energy Sources in Central Europe – Putting Biomass into Action! For the next years the proportional way to obtain 10% of biofuels in 2020 in total amount of liquid fuels and biofuels used in transport was assumed 1 . Other support to RES: • • • • • • • • an obligation to buy all electricity produced from RES, system of penalties for non-compliance the obligations, directing funds achieved from substitute payments and fines to financial support of investments in RES, RES energy release from an excise tax, decrease costs of connecting RES to a grid, (50% less) priority of transmission services for the energy from RES possibility of supporting investments from Structural Founds sources for years 20072013, credits from National Environment Protection Found and Bank of Environment Protection. According to the Polish Energy Law Polish Government is obliged to publish every four years document on Energy Policy. A current document (April 2009) on the energy policy will be accepted by Government in III quarter 2009 specifies that the strategic objectives of this policy are as follows: • energy security of the country, • environmental safety of the country, • improvement of competitiveness and energy efficiency of the economy. Energy security is state of the economy, which enables to cover current and future fuels and energy requirements of consumers, in the way technically and economically justified, with minimisation of the negative impacts of the energy sector at the environment and at the living conditions of the nation. Environmental safety is state in which the pressure of all sectors of the economy, including first of all the energy sector, at the environment is decreasing. Such state allows to maintain – at least at the current level – the biodiversity, enables the effective protection of people’s health and lives as well as the effective preservation of the natural and landscape values, and ensures also the effective compliance of the country with the international obligations in the field of environment protection. Improvement of the energy efficiency of economy means reduction of a primary energy consumption per unit of Gross Domestic Product and is a significant element of the sustainable development of the country. Improvement of the energy efficiency of the economy means a reduction of energy intensity of products, and energy intensity of industrial processes, increase in energy production efficiency, reduction of energy losses in its transmission and distribution etc. Long-term forecast of the energy economy development is an integral part of the energy policy. This forecast includes following components: 1 Anna Grzybek, Balance of biomass for energy production, Conference , Renewable energy innovative technologies and new ideas, Warsaw, 2008. 6 www.4biomass.eu Biomass - Fostering the Sustainable Usage of Renewable Energy Sources in Central Europe – Putting Biomass into Action! • forecast of primary energy and final energy requirements, (included energy from RES), • forecast of electricity requirements and of its coverage, • forecast of energy intensity and electricity intensity of the economy, • forecast of the atmospheric pollutants emissions. The energy policy specifies also strategic objectives of the RES as follows: • achieving 15% RES in 2020 in final energy use, • achieving 10% share of biofuels in the liquid fuels market by 2020, and increase use of the second generation biofuels, • forest protection against excessive exploitation for biomass, and sustainable use of arable land for RES. According to this objectives final energy demand from RES is presented in a table 1. Table 4 .

To reach the 2030 targets biomass should grow rapidly, taking efficiency into account in: • heating (individual heating, heat plants, district heating CHP); • electricity: CHP, cofiring to fossil power plants, alone plants, microcogeneration using steam engine, gasification; • transport: first generation fuels, second generation fuels, biomethan from biogas, others. The energy policy should enhance the financial supports, tax incentives and promotion programmes of biomaterials. Key actors on Polish energy sector: 1. The Ministry of Economy, Director of the Energy Department, 2. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, Director of the Agricultural Markets Department, 3. The Ministry of Environment, 4. The President of Energy Regulatory Office. Formally there are not exist inter-ministerial working group, but Energy Department from the Ministry of Economy closely cooperates with the Agricultural Markets Department of Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, with the Ministry of Environment and with the President of Energy Regulatory Office. There is no competence centre for biomass, but information concern biomass is available in several sources in this in: the Ministry of Economy, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Environment, an ERO, a Polish Biomass Association, an EC BREC, the Polish National Energy Conservation Agency, others. 1 National bioenergy strategies, targets and action plans A strategy of renewable energy development was issued in 2000 year and accepted by the Polish Parliament on 23 August 2001 year. In the RES strategy a quantity goal was established – increasing amount of renewable energy in a fuel-energy balance up to 7,5 per cent in 2010 year (in accordance with an act of the Ministry of Economy concerning electric energy and heat purchase from unconventional sources, including renewable sources). RES strategic objectives are: • achieving 7,5% share of electricity produced from RES in the gross electricity consumption in 2010, Directive 2001/77/EU), 8 www.4biomass.eu Biomass - Fostering the Sustainable Usage of Renewable Energy Sources in Central Europe – Putting Biomass into Action! • achieving 5,75% share of biofuels in the liquid fuels market by 2010, (Directive 2003/30/EU). The Strategy showed a need to increase energy production from renewable energy sources in Poland in this from biomass. On 9th of July 2009 the Ministry of Economy accepted a program: “Innovative Energy – Energy Agriculture” (Innowacyjna Energetyka – Rolnictwo Energetyczne) which allows to create in every district on average one biomass processing facilities using biogas of agriculture origin up to 2020. The program is focused on creating optimal chances to develop installation producing biogas in agricultural processes, indication of joint financing such investments from public and local sources and EU funds, as well as, conducting promotional and educational tasks. It is to be estimated that existing resources should allow producing around 5 billion cubic meters of biogas of similar to high methane gas quality parameters and therefore construction of 2000 – 2500 biomass processing facilities and biogas producing units – 1 MW capacity each. 2 Support schemes for the promotion of the use of energy from biomass Regulation – Mandatory policy instruments Basic legal documents concern RES use in Poland: 1. Ustawa z dnia 10 kwietnia 1997 r. Prawo energetyczne (Dz. U. z 2007 Nr 42 poz. 276, z późn. zm.) (Energy Law). Main legal acts that establishes and regulates rules of energy policy, as well as conditions of supply and use of energy in Poland. The Act defines principles of development of state energy policy, principles and terms of supply and use of fuels and energy, including heat, and operation of energy enterprises, as well as determines organs in charge of fuel and energy economy. The purpose of the Act is the creation of conditions for sustainable development of the country, energy security, efficient and rational use of fuels and energy, development of competition, counteracting negative consequences of natural monopolies, consideration of natural environment protection requirements and obligations stemming from international agreements and balancing interests of energy enterprises and fuel and energy customers. 2.

Spatial planning measures According to a low energy policy every district (gmina) has been obliged to draw up guidelines to a plan of supplying the area in electric energy, heat and gas fuels. The district (gmina) have great competences of planning local energy and heating system. Local administration undertakes different activities as: • introducing local plans of energy supply management together with planning and implementing ownership policy, • using local energy resources (including renewables), • modernising local sources of heat and heating grids, developing energy infrastructure and energy efficiency on rural territories, • general tasks like: insulating flat buildings, revitalisation of neglected areas, developing collective transport services and infrastructure as promotion of alternative energy sources and similar. 3 Certification In frameworks of activities of the Polish Committee of Standardization and The Polish Centre for Testing and Certification Technical Committee dealing with normalization and certification.
