Poland defends the nuclear energy in Brussels

The Polish Press Agency has reached the letter of the Minister of Climate Michał Kurtyka, who defends the nuclear energy as a decarbonisation tool serving the purpose of the European Union’s climate neutrality.

– Nuclear power is necessary in the transformation towards climate neutrality – Kurtyka wrote in a letter to the European Commission quoted by PAP. – Poland, modeling on the good example and experience of other Member States, intends to develop nuclear power to replace the basis for electricity generation provided by coal, zero-emission, stable production at affordable costs for Polish citizens and the economy – wrote Kurtyka.

The Polish Nuclear Power Program has not yet been updated. The draft of Poland’s Energy Policy until 2040 assumes that Poland will have 6-9 GW of nuclear energy by 2043. Mr. Kurtyka declared that the construction of the first block will start in 2026, and according to the strategy it is to be ready in 2033.
