Abstract
Current and future EU regulations are forcing Poland to reduce the participation of coal in the energy mix in 2030 and in the more distant perspective for the significant development of unsteady renewable sources. The stability of the Polish power system will still be based on lignite that is the cheapest source of energy in the country. This involves the exploitation of new deposits and construction of new power plants that will be useful as the reserve for renewable sources. The Poznań rift valleys system belongs to the richest lignite-bearing areas in Poland. In total, there are estimated over 7.8 billion tons of lignite possible to extraction. These deposits should be a guarantee of energy security for Poland.
