A Powerful Energy Mix for the European Union

Against the background of the crisis in Ukraine there has been a return to the discussion on the EU’s energy security, and on reducing its dependence on external suppliers. This encourages new initiatives aimed at building a stronger EU energy policy. Part of the discussion should be devoted to the optimisation of the energy mix in the EU. Poland, with the energy union proposal, should call not so much for greater leeway in the use of fossil fuels, but for the establishment of a diversified and sustainable energy balance structure in the EU, a strategy which would be powerful by dint of using various energy technologies.
