This was lower than the EU-wide average of 57.3%. However, it does not mean that Poland is fully energy independent.

Crude oil, natural gas, hard coal and diesel fuel dominated the import structure. On the export side, the largest categories included coke, hard coal, diesel fuel, high-methane natural gas and electricity.<\/p>\n<p>For businesses, the key issue is not only the volume of imports, but also the concentration of supply sources.

The ODEX indicator, used to assess technical energy efficiency, has declined across the economy, indicating lower energy intensity in relation to work performed, output produced or services delivered.<\/p>\n<p>The strongest improvement was recorded in industry. This was driven by investments in modern equipment, automation, production line upgrades and growing cost pressure. In the coming years, energy efficiency will remain one of the most important areas of competition, as it can often reduce energy bills faster than the construction of new generation capacity.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_do_the_figures_mean_for_business\"><\/span>What do the figures mean for business?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Poland\u2019s energy transition will not be limited to changing the technologies used to generate electricity. It will also involve the transformation of heating, transport, industry and energy use in buildings. The growing share of renewables is an important signal, but it does not remove the challenge of fuel imports or the high share of coal and biomass in the national energy mix.<\/p>\n<p>For businesses, three issues will be crucial: access to stable and competitively priced energy, the ability to secure long-term renewable energy contracts, and investments in energy efficiency.
