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.

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).

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:

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:

•
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.

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.

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.

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.

goal was determined – increasing the amount of renewable energy in a fuel-energy
balance of the country 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.
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.

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.

Conflicts on utilisation of biomass
Yes, these topics have been subjects of discussion for many years. For example in Europe,
including Poland, high overproduction of grain was registered this year.

Cross country cooperation agreements
The legal state agreements had not been signed yet. Anyhow, many companies have
cooperated and exchanged biomass or similar products.
