COAL MINES AS A BARRIER TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES – BY THE EXAMPLE OF POLAND
Journal Title: Topics in Economics, Business and Management (EBM) - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
The article presents an analysis of mining restructuring programs in the possession of the state to check their effectiveness and their impact on changes in the energy sector. The state policy towards the Polish hard coal mining industry in the years 1990-2018 consisted in maintaining an unprofitable industry. Public funds, which in Poland are spent on hard coal mines, are subsidies to finance their current operations, not restructuring changes. The developed recovery programs were only documents needed to obtain EU consent for the transfer of state subsidies. Maintenance of unprofitable hard coal mines is also a reason for supporting the so-called dirty electricity generation technology. The EU, succumbing to countries with coal mines, accepts funding programs for this sector. In this way, it allows further pollution of the environment and limiting the development of renewable energy, and thus the economic development of the Community
