Renewable energy sector  

The main sources of renewable energy included wind, solar and biomass, which were increasingly important in the global energy transition. Nevertheless, there were also other sustainable energy sources, such as electricity generation from water, which has recently increased again somewhat. What has risen continuously in recent years, however, was the electric power production in renewable energy installations. Especially, the power capacity for solar energy rose strongly. 

General energy supply in Poland 

Coal continued to dominate Poland's structure of electricity sources in 2023, with hard coal making up more than half of the country's energy supply. Despite the high consumption of coal and the growing energy sector, gas consumption in Poland also increased.
