Polish power plants against a background of tightening environmental requirements

Abstract

Power industry is a field which exterts a significant influence on the natural environment. This impact can be analysed in two aspects: using fossil energy resources and contaminating the natural environment with gases, ashes and other waste of the combustion process. The necessity to adjust to tightened environmental and economic requirements is a chance for some power plants and a serious threat for others. Power plants must be competitive in order to be able to adjust to the changing environment.
