  1. Zespol Szkol in Lubcza, Poland presents:

  2. non-renewable renewable Sources of energy in Poland

  3. The use of fossil fuels in percentage terms:

  4. Hard coal extraction in Poland: It is the most important fuel in Poland that is being used to produce the electricity in heat and power stations (plants). The annual extraction in Poland - 102 mln. tons. Poland imports about 15 mln tons mainly from Russia. In Poland there is about 5.5% of world seams of hard coal. The oldest hard coal mine in Poland is situated in the south –west of Poland (Ruda Śląska) and it was build in 1751.

  5. Wujek coal mine shaft

  6. Brown coal extraction in Poland: The annual extraction in Poland - 61 mln. tons It is mainly extracted with an opencast method It is usually burnt near to the place of its extraction cause the costs of its transport would be very high It is not so popular because it has got a great negative influence on environment pollution

  7. Multivessel lignite excavator

  8. Heat and power plant in Belchatow

  9. Natural Gas The annual extraction in Poland meets 30% of the country’s demand. Poland imports about 12 mld. m3 annually mainly from Russia and Germany. It is mainly extracted in the south of Poland

  10. Shale gas platform

  11. Petroleum (oil) The annual extraction in Poland – 620 000 tons -it meets 25% of the country’s demand. Poland imports about 20 mln tons annually mainly from Russia. Jan Józef Ignacy Łukasiewicz (1822–1882) was a Polishpharmacist and petroleum industry pioneer who in 1856 built the first oil refinery in the worldAmong his other achievements were the discovery of how to distill kerosene from seep oil, the invention of the modern kerosene lamp (1853), the introduction of the first modern street lamp in Europe (1853), and the construction of the first oil well in Poland (1854).

  12. Looking for oil

  13. The drilling platform in the Baltic Sea

  14. The use of renewable sources of energy in percentage terms:

  15. Wind power The wind power industry is being developed since the beginning of ‘90s of the 21 century The first windmill was built next to the hydroelectric power station in Żarnowiec in 1991. The wind farms in Poland meet about 15% of the country’s demand Polish wind farms are usually located in the north of Poland.

  16. Biomass Biomass delivers about 60% of the whole energy produced thanks to the renewables in Poland. In our country the biomass consists mainly from the wood which is used for heating. Woods areas occupy almost 30 % of the whole country.

  17. Woods in Poland

  18. Solar energy It delivers only about 10 % of the whole energy produced by renewable in Poland The time of recharging the solar batteries is usually long and the process is very expensive itself that why it is not so widespread / popular

  19. Our Comenius team in Wierzchosławice

  20. Water power It delivers only about 3 % of the whole energy produced by renewables in Poland In Poland it is produced by 26 hydroelectric power stations, which are located at the two biggest Polish rivers: Wisła and Warta It’s mainly used in urbanized areas after conversion into electric energy

  21. Hydroelectric power station on Vistula River

  22. Geothermal energy It delivers only about 5 % of the whole energy produced by renewable sources in Poland It’s not popular in our country; mainly used for heating including heating water in resorts From hot springs, geothermal energy has been used for bathing

  23. Geothermal pool in Zakopane

  24. Geothermalswimmingpool in Bukowina Tatrzańska ( Tatra Mountains – about 180 km from Lubcza  )
