The aim of this paper is to present selected results achieved by the Member States of the EU in the context of the recent global and European strategies oriented toward enhancement of the role of renewable energy sources and on mitigation of negative climate changes in the Earth. Special attention has been paid to those countries that have approached or already reached, in the year 2012, a share of renewable energy indicators at a percentage level higher than the required 20%.

Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie wyników analizy odnoszącej się do krajów członkowskich UE w kontekście założeń strategii globalnych i europejskich w zakresie osiągania wskaźników zwiększenia udziału energii odnawialnych w ogólnym zużyciu energii elektrycznej do co najmniej 20%. Jak wynika z przeprowadzonych badań już do roku 2012 niektóre kraje wskaźniki te znacząco przekroczyły, co wymaga poświęcenia im szczególnej uwagi.
