| Title | Poland's Energy Transition: Nuclear Energy, Security, and Environmental Implications |
| Summary | This thesis looks at how nuclear power affects environmental and energy stability of a country, looking at Poland's energy scene. Poland must get beyond coal and other non-renewable fuels if it wants to reduce carbon emissions and become energy self-sufficient. The research looks at the advantages and drawbacks of including nuclear power into Poland's Energy Policy until 2040 (EPP2040) in line with the Paris Agreement and European Green Deal. The study explores the relationship between historical energy infrastructure, modern policy ambitions, and global energy transition patterns. It suggests that nuclear power can balance Poland's renewable energy sources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions and can adapt and improve energy security. The study encourages the acquisition of energy transition and policy reform theoretical frameworks for academics, companies, and governments. The study emphasizes evidence-based policymaking and strategic planning in Poland's energy transformation. |
