The eleven-day mission of the International Atomic Energy Agency in Poland confirms the country is ready to build a nuclear power  plant and recommends changes to the law and further work to start construction.

Canadians have decided that an environmental decision for a large nuclear power plant in Darlington also applies to a Canadian SMR project that Poland’s Orlen and Synthos are hoping to pursue on home turf. This precedent may be important for Poland.

Within days or hours we should hear news about a decision on chartering a FSRU that is to dock in the Gdańsk Bay.

Andrzej Sidło from the Ministry of Climate and Environment commented on the potential delay in the construction of the nuclear power plant in Pomerania. He said it was a matter of months rather than years. However, the exact time cannot be determined at this stage, and indicating a specific date is speculation.

The first location for the nuclear power plant is no longer controversial, with only the tight schedule causing sleepless nights for future builders. The competition for the second location is ongoing, as the focus shifts to reactor prices – writes Wojciech Jakóbik, editor-in-chief at BiznesAlert.pl.

Former CEO of Polska Grupa Energetyczna Wojciech Dąbrowski has comment on the presentation of his predecessor during the press conference about the company’s financial results.

The agreement has been signed. A Training Centre for Clean Energy Technologies will be established under the auspices of Poland and the USA. The Americans are set to share their knowledge on nuclear energy during the construction of the nuclear plant in Pomerania, while also aiming for another location.

The Ukrainians are effective at striking at the weak spots of Russia, which has so far evaded Western sanctions. If anyone is afraid of the consequences of their strikes on Russian refineries, they should tighten sanctions. Here’s how to do it – writes Wojciech Jakóbik, editor-in-chief at BiznesAlert.pl.

The head of Germany’s Schwedt refinery is counting on the development of oil supplies through the naftoport in Rostock, even though cooperation with Poles in Gdańsk and the expansion of the Pomeranian oil pipeline are on the table.

Derusification of the Schwedt refinery is still on the table. This solution is safer and deprives the Russians of impact on the oil sector between Poland and Germany – writes Wojciech Jakóbik, editor-in-chief at BiznesAlert.pl.
