Abstract
Global warming is, besides the COVID-19 pandemic, the greatest challenge for international society nowadays. Further reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is a crucial issue for the European Union and member states. In accordance with European Commission’s long-term strategy, by 2050 United Europe’s economy will have been neutral for the climate. In Poland, the main source of energy is still coal therefore the need to spread and accelerate the use of renewable energy sources is urgent. However, the pace of work in this area is determined by the law procedure for obtaining legal permits for investments in renewable energy sources. This article is a scientific analysis of the Polish legal provisions related to obtaining a decision on environmental conditions. The authors have used formal-dogmatic and theoretical methods supplemented with an analysis of the judgments of Polish administrative courts. In light of Polish regulations, investments in renewable energy are investments that have a significant impact on the environment and as such require a complex environmental assessment in an administrative procedure.
