The “Clean Energy for all Europeans” package (so called “winter package”) presented by the European Commission in November 2016 aims at reforming some of the central pieces of EU energy legislation. New measures proposed are to increase energy efficiency, boost renewable energy usage, reform the European energy market, introduce new governance measures for the Energy Union, and support clean energy innovation. This article gives an overview of the package and presents some initial thoughts on its significance for the Polish energy policy and energy market transformation.

The aim of this article is to assess the implementation process of the EU energy security policy in Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries. In the EU, energy security remains a crucial issue for European Energy Strategy, the fundamental goals of which include the security of supply, sustainability and competitiveness. Security of supply should be considered the most important aspect in this context, because it is connected to deep interdependencies between markets and economies, often based on political or even geo-political considerations. This is currently particularly noticeable, among other things, in the relations between the EU and Russia, where – in the event of any potential energy supply disturbances – some CEE countries are considered to be the most exposed. By analysing matters referred to the security of energy supplies, the article aims to determine the scope of activities undertaken by selected CEE countries which are also EU Member States in order to achieve this goal. The paper stresses the significance of cooperation by CEE countries at regional level, and focuses on initiatives and projects meant to ensure the security of their energy supplies. The conclusions of the paper assess some of the success stories as well as failures experienced by CEE countries in the process of building their energy independence.

Le but de cet article est d'évaluer la mise en oeuvre de la politique de sécurité énergétique de l’Union européenne dans les pays de l’Europe centrale et orientale (PECO). Dans l'UE, la sécurité énergétique est un enjeu crucial pour la Stratégie énergétique européenne qui contient parmi ces objectifs fondamentaux la sécurité de l'approvisionnement, la durabilité et la compétitivité. La sécurité de l’approvisionnement doit être considérée comme l'aspect le plus important dans ce contexte, car elle est liée aux interdépendances profondes entre les marchés et les économies, souvent basées sur des considérations politiques ou même géo-politiques. Ceci est actuellement particulièrement visible, entre autres, dans les relations entre l'UE et la Russie, où - dans le cas de perturbations concernant l'approvisionnement en énergie - certains PECO sont considérés comme le plus exposés. En analysant les questions concernant la sécurité de l’approvisionnement énergétique, l'article vise à déterminer l’étendue des activités entreprises par certains PECO [qui sont aussi les États Membres de l’Union européenne] afin d’atteindre cet objectif. L’article souligne l'importance de la coopération des PECO au niveau régional et se focalise sur les initiatives et les projets visés à assurer la sécurité de l’approvisionnement énergétique de ces pays. Les conclusions de cet article évaluent des réussites, ainsi que les échecs des PECO, dans le processus de la construction de leur indépendance énergétique.

The article presents Poland’s and Germany’s position on the challenges of the EU-Energy Policy on an example of the EU Energy Union. The article includes an evaluation of Poland’s and Germany’s energy balance as an important determinant of the energy policy in both countries. The core tasks of the Polish and German energy policy were discussed as well as the possible support of future key issues of the EU energy policy.

The objective of the Energy Union is to integrate 28 national energy markets, guarantee free movement of energy through the borders of the member states, implement new technologies, increase energy efficiency and renew transmission infrastructure. This project is advocated in response to the energy crisis of 2009, between Russia and Ukraine, as a result of which the gas transit to some of the EU countries was discontinued. This project, however, does not enjoy equal interest among all EU member states. This is the outcome of the national interests of some member states, which, for many years, have had good political and economic relations with the Russian Federation, particularly in the area of energy raw materials. Therefore, Maroš Šefčovič – the European Commissioner in charge of the Energy Union, organised an Energy Union Tour, i.e. a series of meetings in all the member states, taking place at the turn of 2015–2016, the objective of which was to show what the Energy Union could offer each of them. The structure of the paper was determined by the research procedure and the response to all the research questions, comprising: introduction, reflections on the security of the energy raw material supply and the projects of Energy Union and Energy Union Tour as well as the conclusions from the research and the summary.

Artykuł przedstawia problem zapewnienia bezpieczeństwa zaopatrzenia energetycznego Niemiec w procesie tworzenia unii energetycznej UE. Rozwój odnawialnych źródeł energii, zwiększenie potencjału oszczędzania energii i dokończenie budowy rynku wewnętrznego energii, jak również rozbudowa połączeń transgranicznych są z perspektywy Niemiec priorytetowe dla zapewnienia bezpieczeństwa zaopatrzenia energetycznego w ramach tworzonej unii energetycznej. W artykule uwzględniona została geneza i filary unii energetycznej, jak również stanowisko Niemiec wobec tego projektu.

The article presents the problem of the German energy supply security in the process of the creation of the EU’s Energy Union. The development of renewable energy, increasing energy efficiency and the finishing of the creation of the internal energy market as well as the buildup of the transnational energy infrastructure are – from Germany’s point of view – the priorities of the energy supply security within the frameworks of the EU’s Energy Union. The article also describes also the origin and the pillars of the EU’s Energy Union as well as Germany’s position on the proposal of the Energy Union.
