Security factor in discussion on the role of Indigenous Coal Endowment in Poland’s energy policy

Journal Title: Securitologia - Year 2016, Vol 23, Issue 1

Abstract

Security is one of the most important factors in Polish debate on both, energy and foreign policies. Under its influence the proposed future shape of Polish electricity system is to be continuation of the present coal-based quasiautarchic one. The paper investigates historical factors that make Polish elites so much attached to the idea of energy policy based on striving full energy independence and concludes presenting threats arising from such policy.
