Rezygnacja Niemiec z energetyki węglowej do 2030 r. pozostawia pozostałych producentów energii elektrycznej opartej na węglu w izolacji
Summary
The report finds that while the EU is rapidly reducing coal power, with planned production falling by 83% between 2015 and 2030, three countries—Poland, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria—will account for over 95% of the EU's planned coal electricity generation by 2030. Germany's commitment to exit coal by 2030 has further isolated these three nations, which are phasing out coal significantly slower than the rest of the EU-27.
Key insights
- The European Union is rapidly reducing its reliance on coal, with planned coal-fired electricity production expected to drop by 83% from 2015 to 2030, decreasing from 705 TWh to 118 TWh.
- By 2030, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria are projected to be responsible for more than 95% of the EU's planned coal-based electricity generation, with Poland accounting for 63%, the Czech Republic 18%, and Bulgaria 14%.
- There is a significant gap in the speed of coal phase-outs: while the other 24 EU countries plan to reduce coal electricity production by 99% between 2015 and 2030, Poland, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria propose a combined reduction of only 42%.
- Germany's decision to exit coal by 2030 has significantly lowered the EU's projected coal generation for 2030; previously, Germany planned to produce 134 TWh, which was over one-third of the total EU coal energy in the original National Energy and Climate Plans.
- Poland's transition is notably slow, with a commitment to phase out coal by 2049, just one year before the EU's overall climate neutrality target.
