What goes on in Poland on the 21st of October.

Golden weld of the GIPL gas pipeline

Amber Grid, the operator of transmission gas pipelines in Lithuania, informs about the completion of the „golden weld” of the Poland-Lithuania gas pipeline. The gas transmission systems of these countries have thus been connected and the Baltic energy island will eventually disappear.

Gas will flow through the GIPL in 2022 with a capacity of 2.4 billion cubic meters. annually towards Poland and 1.9 billion cubic meters. annually towards Lithuania. On the Lithuanian side, 95 percent of the construction was completed.

GIPL was financed by the Polish operator Gaz-System and Amber Grid (EUR 422 and 136 million, respectively). He obtained funding from the European Union worth EUR 306 million. It is on the list of EU Common Interest Projects due to the fact that it will connect the gas markets of the Baltic countries with the rest of the Community via Poland.

Czechia want to return to talks with Poland on the Turów Mine

The Polish Press Agency reports that the Czechs want to resume talks with Poles about the Turów mine.

– The Czech Ministry of Environment has offered the Polish side to resume negotiations on the Turów mine. A spokeswoman for the ministry, Petra Roubiczkova, said that he has the support of representatives of the coalition that is negotiating the formation of a new Czech government – we read in PAP. – The proposal to resume negotiations is a response to the appeal of local government officials from the Liberec region (voivodeship) published on Wednesday, who called on the ministers of the outgoing Czech government to continue negotiations with Poland. They persuaded her that you cannot wait two or three months for a new cabinet to be formed after the elections.

The dispute continues and the ruling of the Court of Justice of the European Union ordering the detention of the Turów Mine is not implemented by Poland, which means that a fine of up to EUR 500,000 a day is charged. However, in the event of a judgment expected in November, Warsaw will not be obliged to implement the remedial measures proposed to regions concerned about the mine’s impact on the environment.
