Deputy Minister of Environment and Climate, Jacek Ozdoba (SP), stressed in a position presented to PAP that “Solidarna Polska was consistently against limiting mining and the liquidation of the Polish mining industry.”
We argued that this could endanger our security. For this reason, in February 2021, ministers did not support the government’s program to switch from coal to gas. The current situation in the energy market confirms that Solidarity Poland is right and we hope and trust that the government and our coalition partners will support our postulates regarding the revision of the current policy

As he added, his party does not count on “reflection on the side of the total opposition”, which he says “consistently pushes ideological projects under the influence of Donald Tusk without paying attention to Poland’s pockets and the risk of a lack of energy sources during the heating season.”
†We can’t move away from coal anytime soon, because we don’t have an alternative”
Law and Justice also favors the conservation of coal-based energy. Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of State Resources Jacek Sasin ruled on Monday that Poland’s exit from coal should only take place after obtaining alternative energy sources that will guarantee the country’s independence.
We cannot quickly move away from coal without an alternative, as often ideologically other European countries have tried to do this by saying that you can quickly move away from coal, gas, nuclear energy, all the traditional methods of energy production in favor of this new clean but unreliable ways.production, energy, I’m talking about renewable energy. This should lead to a large-scale energy crisis and today the symptoms of this crisis are clearly visible in many European countries
– said Sasin at the conference “The road to energy independence of Poland and the region”, which took place in the Senate on Monday.
The details of the Solidarity Poland project are not yet known.
