ELECTRICITY FROM PEAT – ABANDONED PLANS FOR A POLISH PEAT-FUELLED PLANT IN WIZNA: FACTS AND CONTEXTS

Journal Title: Kwartalnik Kolegium Ekonomiczno-Społecznego Studia i Prace - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

The final article explores little-known plans for the use of peat in energy production in Poland. The idea of building a plant in Wizna is shown as part of a wider concept of industrialising rural parts of the country within the BiałystokŁomża- Ełk triangle. Repeatedly postponed, the concept never came to fruition, and was finally abandoned after the creation of peat nature reserves in 1967.
