Abstract
The Polish economy is facing a huge challenge regarding the future of energy in Poland. The current energy system is very inefficient, it consumes huge resources that, like countries with high energy efficiency, could be allocated to the development of low-carbon and renewable energy networks. At the moment, the Polish energy sector, related to the coal monoculture, lacks electricity and the entire transmission system is obsolete. The solution may be distributed energy, which can ultimately satisfy energy supplies in less urbanized areas and in rural areas, while guaranteeing the sustainable development of these areas. In order to take up the challenge of better understanding and explaining such a complex reality, it was decided that the research framework of this article will be distributed energy in the region. The aim of the article is to ensure energy security in the conditions of innovative, ecological and open to competition regional energy using local energy resources. Currently, it is believed that distributed energy can be an effective solution to the problem of conventional energy operation.
Highlights
The Polish economy is facing a huge challenge regarding the future of energy in Poland
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) defines distributed energy as facilities located in distribution networks or at consumers, permanently using renewable or conventional resources
Indication of an alternative which may be the development of low-emission and renewable energy networks
Summary
The Polish economy is facing a huge challenge regarding the future of energy in Poland. An interesting thread is the issue of changing the role of the end user of energy: from a passive consumer to an active prosumer who shapes his behavior in such a way as to save energy, but strives to increase the efficiency of its use and to produce surplus energy that can be transferred to the local network. This is the way to make a civilizational leap in Poland, to build a knowledge society in our country. The article uses literature on the subject, scientific articles, press, papers, conference materials, especially from countries where there is distributed energy (Germany, Great Britain, the United States), legal and official acts, reports, international agreements (European Union), publications
