Financing Large Energy Projects 

- Who’s To Pay For It? 

Investments in new power units are necessary in order to maintain national energy security. Energy capacities 

to be achieved by 2020 are due to replace some of the old power units that must be switched off. 

Those new facilities should be powerful enough to meet the rising energy consumption. It is estimated that 

Poland’s energy sector will require investments worth PLN 170 billion in the next ten years. The current financial 

crisis limits the flow of foreign capital, which makes it difficult to precede with new projects. Thus, 

the question arises who is to pay for the large energy infrastructure projects?

Programme 

Energy Policy vs. EU’s Climate Policy 

Objectives 

Including climate policy objectives in the general energy strategy will contribute to the growth of innovation 

in the EU’s energy sector and will increase the security of energy supplies. EU’s fuel comes mostly from 

imports. Thus, seeking a path to independence from external suppliers seems to be a reasonable option. 

Many initiatives have been undertaken in order to enhance energy efficiency, strengthen the role of local 

energy resources, as well as to improve the energy transportation and distribution networks. The pace of 

these processes differs between EU member states. Hence, it is worth discussing how to alleviate these differences, 

how to use the energy produced by 27 states, and how to cooperate with external partners.

Programme 

Natural, Liquid, Shale – Which Gas Will 

Become Europe’s Fuel? 

Fulfilling the European consumers’ needs until renewable resources will be widely used, which implicates 

implementing balanced and coherent policy aiming to develop gas infrastructure. Experts claim that the 

upcoming decade will be the decade of gas. The significance of natural gas for the global economy is constantly 

growing. The capacity to extract natural gas from a country’s own pools and to use it effectively is 

the measure of its economic security. Prices of natural gas in Europe are strictly related to oil prices. Most of 

gas contracts are long-term and set minimum amounts for importing gas regardless of the current situation 

on the market. Therefore, local exploration of shale gas on flexible terms of delivery is more and more 

appreciated. Europe needs energy security and shale gas is largely seen as an important factor of energy 

stability.

Energy: Politics vs. Business 

Europe is about to define its strategic approach towards energy sector. There’s an urgent need for investment 

in this sector and their consequences will be crucial for future decades. On one hand, we need a longterm, 

common policy of all EU’s member states, on the other hand, individual interests of the members 

should not be forgotten. It seems that rational interventionism and regulations are necessary for the energy 

sector to operate effectively. Energy, energy efficiency and renewables are widely discussed issues. Who, 

then, manages energy issues and who has real impact on these matters?

Low-Emission Buildings 

- New Model of the Economic Politics 

Low-emission buildings will play a leading role in the process of the transformation of the EU economy into 

a climate-friendly one. Modern technologies have already enabled construction of low-emission buildings. 

This allows to reduce dependence on traditional energy sources as well as provides the best quality at a 

competitive price. Private construction projects are granted subsidies for the construction or acquisition of 

energy-saving buildings from the National Fund for Environmental Protection and Water Management. 

The panel will present actions aiming to achieve a competitive low-emission economy.

The Role of Renewable Energy Sources in 

the Energy Mix in the Ongoing 

and Upcoming Decades 

It seems inevitable that in the long term our energy needs will largely be met owing to renewable sources. 

How to design energy bridges that will conduct us safely to this point and what power structure – centralized 

or distributed – is preferable? What should be the energy mix in the perspective of 2050, and how 

to reach it? What should we bank on: Should the RES sector be imposed with stringent requirements and 

limitations in connection with the way the current transmission system works and balances supply and 

demand for energy? Or should it be transformed by increasing its ability to interface with the “democratic” 

micro- and pico-energetics ?

Innovative Energy 

– Benefits for Economy and Consumers 

Apart from searching new energy sources and improving technology, importance is increasingly attached 

to a better energy management that can reduce losses during transmission. Experts claim that implementing 

innovations requires new systemic solutions that would cover the whole supply chain from producers 

to consumers. What steps should be taken to implement new solutions? What legislation can encourage 

investors and consumers to implement them? Where to look for funding? What legislation can encourage 

investors and consumers to implement them?

Privatization, Restructuring, Stock 

Exchange – What Ownership Changes Do 

Have Impact on Security and Effectiveness 

of the Energy Sector? 

The economic crisis demands certain adjustments in some sectors of the economy. It has often been repeated 

that the state should be more active in the economy and strategically important companies. The main 

purpose of such an involvement would be to attract capital for innovation and investments and to avoid 

hostile takeovers. Will the government become more active in companies’ management boards? What will 

happen to privatisation programmes and private capital growth? Will these tendencies help stop the crisis 

from deepening and increase competitiveness? How are the investments in such sectors as energy and telecommunication 

going to be financed?

The Energy Sector in the Times of Crisis 

In the coming years, the Central European countries may have to confront the energy crisis. This will be the 

consequence both of investment negligence and the decision, i.a. Germany’s, to withdraw from nuclear 

energy. To avoid a negative scenario, huge investments are needed in the sector. Supporters of conventional 

energy generation methods say that recession is not a good time for the introduction of new energy technologies, 

as electricity derived from RES is expensive, and these costs are borne by businesses and individual 

recipients. On the other hand, their opponents argue that if one takes into account the pollution emitted by 

coal-fired power plants and expenses incurred for medical treatment, it turns out that energy from unconventional 

sources is not more expensive at all. Which energy sources should be developed in times of crisis? 

How should the Polish energy mix change, taking into account the EU Climate Package?

Fuel Sector – Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow 

Despite the fact that the world’s attention is currently focused on tackling the consecutive phases of the 

economic crisis, there is no doubt that in about fifteen years the demand for energy will increase, because 

the world’s population is constantly growing. At the same time, due to the higher oil supply, refinery profits 

will no more be as certain as they used to be in the past. Experts predict that the sector will remain stable 

as the main source of energy will still be hydrocarbons and the resources will be sufficient. What is the best 

strategy for the fuel sector in changing energy market conditions? Should it minimise risks by embarking 

on a development strategy based on investing in new profitable fields? Will petrochemicals become more 

important that fuels? What will be the impact of new technologies on the fuel sector?

Green Energy and Its Impact 

on the Economic Effectiveness 

Programme 

Green race with time in Europe has started. It’s an obvious consequence of EU’s decision that Member States 

should reduce the emission of greenhouse gases by 80 % till 2050. First step towards fulfilling these goals 

is the plan 3x20, currently being in progress. In result, due to substantial technological development in the 

last year, the energy produced from renewable sources will be competitive enough to face market rivalry 

with energy based on fossil fuels. In Poland, an introduction of transparent legislation and reduction of economic 

obstacles is a prerequisite to create a friendly environment for Green Energy. The main purpose of the 

debate is to find the answer to the question what final shape the plans for the development of renewable 

energy in Central and Eastern Europe should have.

Cooperation or Competition 

in Nuclear Energy Sector? 

The German government’s decision to withdraw from nuclear power by 2022 will affect the energy security 

of the Central and Eastern Europe. The CEE countries have already announced projects for the construction 

or expansion of existing nuclear power plants. Thus, new markets are opening for the French, Russian, Japanese 

and American industries that have long been providing nuclear technology solutions worldwide. Will 

cooperation be possible in this part of Europe despite the global competition between these companies?

Public Services or Business Activities? 

Energy Sector In The Cities of 21st Century 

Sustainable urban development in the 21st century cannot exist in isolation from energy issues. Energy is 

a business activity carried out to a great extent in the area of public services. Therefore, rapid growth of 

cities should be followed by adequate development of energy infrastructure and by increasing production 

capacities. On one hand, most energy companies are commercial firms established to generate income, 

on the other hand, the public sector is forced to cut spending because of the crisis. Therefore, in order to 

increase security and to streamline energy expenditures, it is important to build energy rings around cities, 

to create conditions allowing to design low-energy buildings, and to convince citizens of the importance of 

the rational use energy and energy-efficient solutions.
