З огляду на цивілізаційні зміни двадцять першого століття, світова економіка стає на шлях низьковуглецевого розвитку. Польща як член міжнародного співтовариства, в тому числі Євросоюзу, також рухається в цьому напрямку, дотримуючись міжнародних правил збереження енергії і підтримки стабільності клімату. Енергетичний баланс та стратегії розвитку енергетичних технологій все частіше виявляють і актуалізують проблеми, пов'язані з енергетичною безпекою країни / регіону, вирішення яких, у свою чергу, є вагомим фактором у розвитку сучасної ринкової економіки. У даній статті на прикладі Великопольського воєводства проведено аналіз ринку енергетичної потужності та викладено рекомендації щодо забезпечення регіональної енергетичної безпеки в контексті перспектив розвитку енергетичного ринку. Учитывая цивилизационные изменения двадцать первого века, мировая экономика становится на путь низкоуглеродистого развития. Польша, являясь членом международного сообщества, в том числе Евросоюза, также движется в данном направлении, соблюдая международные правила сохранения энергии и поддержания стабильности климата. Энергетический баланс и стратегии развития энергетических технологий все чаще проявляют и актуализируют проблемы, связанные с энергетической безопасностью страны / региона, решение которых, в свою очередь, является весомым фактором в развитии современной рыночной экономики. В данной статье на примере Великопольского воеводства проведен анализ рынка энергетической мощности и изложены рекомендации относительно обеспечения региональной энергетической безопасности в контексте перспектив развития энергетического рынка. 2016 Article Regional energy security (based on Polish experience) / K.

REGIONAL ENERGY SECURITY (BASED ON POLISH EXPERIENCE)
Introduction
Wielkopolska Region is located in the central-
western part of Poland. It is the second largest and third
most populated region with the area of 29 826.5 km2,
which represents 9.5% of the country. The greater part
of its area - about 65% consists of agricultural, then for-
ests and forests with shrubs – 26.7%. Only 5.2% of its
area is built-up and urbanized land [as of 1.01. 2013 Sta-
tistical Office in Poznan].
The administrative structure of Wielkopolska
shape 35 districts, including 31 rural districts and 4 cit-
ies and towns: Poznan, Leszno, Kalisz and Konin. The
smallest administrative units are 226 municipalities, in-
cluding 19 urban, 90 rural-urban and 117 rural. There
are 109 cities in the voivodship - the largest number in
Poland as well as 5456 rural municipalities. [Voivode-
ship. Subregions - the districts - the municipalities in
2013, the US in Poznan 2013].
Rural areas in Wielkopolska cover an area of 28
335 km2, which represents 95% of its surface. Rural set-
tlement network consists of 3851 villages, 117 of them
are rural municipal centers. These areas have a popula-
tion of 1531.5 thousand people representing 43.9% of
the total number of inhabitants of the province and 10%
of rural areas of the country [Greater 2013-2020 Rural
Renewal, Office of the Marshal of Wielkopolska 2013].
64% of rural population is of working age and the num-
ber of people working in the country is over 620 thou-
sand. It remains at a similar level in recent years. The
vast potential of human resources in the region is a pre-
requisite for the development of new economic activi-
ties in rural areas, including renewable energy.
Farmers in Wielkopolska work on an area of about
1939.3 thousand ha of agricultural land, which accounts
for 65% of the whole province. In 2013, 1475.1 thou-
sand ha was a sowing area. Nearly 1.23% of farmland in
Wielkopolska is occupied by orchards, and less than
14% by permanent meadows and pastures [GUS 2013].
In addition, farmers in the region carry the highest in
Poland agricultural production, occupying leading posi-
tions in crop production and livestock. They also excel
on the country level in the collection of cereals (15.5%
of the harvest in Poland), sugar beet (23%) and outdoor
vegetables (14.1%), whose acreage is significant on a
national scale. Greater agriculture also has a dominant
position in the production of animals for slaughter -
20.5% nationally. Participation in cattle production is
22.2% and 24.1% in pigs. In addition, the region pro-
duces the highest in Poland number of poultry chicken
and chicken eggs, which shares in the country amounts
to 27.7% sequentially and 33.1% [Yearbook of agricul-
ture, GUS 2014]. A high percentage of arable land and
a large crop and animal production in the region provide
excellent conditions for the use of biomass energy. In
2013 around 123 228 agricultural holdings were located
in Wielkopolska [GUS 2014] More than 76% of them
are holdings of up to 10 hectares, so the small-area and
not the strongest economically ones. Only 0.93% of
farms were large holdings [Local Data Bank in 2014].
Wielkopolska Region has the largest number of cit-
ies in Poland. According to GUS data from 2013, 109
cities, representing 13.1% of all cities in the country are
located here. It is inhabited by a total of 1,920.1 thou-
sand people or 8.23% of the urban population of the
country. The region's urbanization level measured by
the share of urban population in the total population of
the region is 55.5%. Compared to other provinces this
percentage is relatively low, as compared to the average
of the country, which has a value of about 60.6%. The
low level of urbanization of Wielkopolska comes from
the presence of small towns up to 20 thousand residents
on its territory. Average number of inhabitants is almost
17 616 people, one of the lowest rates compared to the
average of the country being placed at the level of 25
701 people [Area and population in territorial in 2013,
CSO 2013].
Greater settlement network creates a hierarchical
system, and its largest conurbation is Poznan. Due to the
significant role in the Polish settlement system and so-
cio-economic contribution to the processes of develop-
ment, the city gained the status of metropolitan center.
Its significant contribution to socio-economic and cul-
tural life of the region is mostly due to the population
potential as well as the economic, and scientific ones.
This resort in conjunction with the district of Poznań
creates an area which is home to the most intense urban-
ization processes in the whole region. Poznan is there-
fore a key element of the spatial structure of Wielkopol-
ska and together with functionally interdependent envi-
ronment creates Poznań Metropolitan Area. This area is

considered the most important generator of growth for
the whole region, bringing together the largest part of
the development potential and providing the competi-
tive potential of the region. Evidence of this are high
growth rate in economics, investments, science, technol-
ogy, and social and cultural life [Report on the develop-
ment and growth of the Wielkopolska region in 2010;
Wielkopolska Spatial Planning Office, 2011; Pająk,
Dahlke, Kvilinskyi, 2016].
1. The consumption of electricity and heat in the
Wielkopolska region in the years 2005-2013
The energy consumption of heat and electricity in
Wielkopolska is a derivative of many factors related to
local government, level of industrialization, population
of the region, its labor market and the processes urban
development. Total electricity consumption each year is
on average about 10.8 - 11 GWh. Detailed calculations
by industry is presented in Table 1.

Consumption of electricity in Wielkopolska in 2013
Source: GUS: http://stat.gov.pl/download/gfx/portalinformacyjny/pl/defaultaktualnosci/5485/6/7/1/se_zuzycie_paliw_
nosnikow_energii2012.pdf [15.10.2014]/.
From the data in Table 1 the indication is that in the
region of Wielkopolska there is a significant on a na-
tional scale electricity consumption. (%) Especially
high percentage of the transport sector, agriculture, min-
ing and quarrying. On the other hand quantity the big-
gest consumers of electricity and heat are industrial and
construction industries and households. Worth noting is
that in these sectors lie at the same time greatest oppor-
tunities to save energy and heat, thereby reducing the
amount of CO2 emissions.
The largest heating networks in Wielkopolska are
located in Poznań, Kalisz, Konin, Leszno and Pila. The
average annual heat sales are almost 21 262 TJ. in detail
is presented in table 2.

2. Power lines setup in Wielkopolska region
In the region of Wielkopolska national transmis-
sion grid system consists of the lines of 400, 220 and
110 kV, and of an extensive system of electric substa-
tions and transformers. These objects are important ele-
ments of the transmission network, they also allow for
transferring of the substantial power from the power
plant. The electricity in the region is transferred via a
distribution network of stations 400/220/100 and
220/110 kV. The main energy producers in the region
include:
− Pątnów Power Stations Groups I and II -
Adamów – Konin SA (ZE PAK), having about 14%
share of the Polish electricity market and the second
largest domestic producer of electricity manufactured
from lignite. The total installed capacity of ZE PAK is

2,734 MW, which represents about 12% of national
power;
− Dalkia Poznań ZEC – electrical power and
heating stations Karolin and Garbary in Poznan; total
thermal energy produced amounts to 979 MW, electrical
one to 276 MW;
− Power Station Kalisz – Piwonice, generating
106 MW of thermal power and 7 MW of electric power,
O Energy Poznan, Zakład Elektrowni Wodnych Sp. z
o.o. – a team of 5 hydroelectric power stations on the
river Gwda (Podgaje, Jastrow, Ptusza, Dobrzyca,
Kosice) with a total power of about 30 MW [Wielkopol-
ska Spatial Planning Office in Poznan in 2010].
Energy Infrastructure in region includes grid oper-
ated by three companies:
− PSE Zachód SA with its corporate seat in War-
saw (West Branch in Poznan) managing the high volt-
age electricity network of 400 kV and 220 kV;
− Grupa Energetyczna ENEA SA, managing
electricity network in the sub-regions of Pila, Poznan
and Leszno;
− Energetyka Kaliska SA, a Energa Group com-
pany managing electricity network in the area of Konin
and Kalisz subregions [Greater Regional Action Plan on
Sustainable Energy in the field of renewable energy
sources and energy efficiency, Marshal Office of
Wielkopolska, 2011].
The state of the region's energy infrastructure is un-
satisfactory, both qualitatively and quantitatively, which
can lead to risks in the supply of energy and fuel. Espe-
cially medium and low voltage power lines indicate in-
sufficient technical condition, mostly in rural areas [Ex-
ecutive Board of the Wielkopolska Region in 2014] re-
quiring modernization and reconstruction. Further de-
velopment of electricity transmission systems as well as
expansion and improvement of the functioning network
is necessary in order to increase energy security and re-
duce energy losses in transmission and distribution. Pri-
ority in the development of renewable energy sources is
also building a smart energy networks to enable recep-
tion of energy from microgeneration and development
of electricity prosumption (Smart Gird) [Wind energy in
Poland, TPAHorwath 2013].

A Table 3 content analysis shows that the installed
capacity of electricity generation and heat is increasing
in recent years. For the Wielkopolska meter for speci-
fied period increased by 178 700,00 kW, while for Po-
land by 3 249 200,00 kW. Increase of power in the re-
gion grew by 5.78% while in the country by as much as
9.17%. A significant decrease in the total installed ca-
pacity between 2007 and 2008, which amounted to al-
most 173 200kW is also worth mentioning. Another
positive phenomenon associated with economic devel-
opment is the fact that in the years 2005-2013 the meter
per capita both in Wielkopolska and in the country was
consequently growing. In the Wielkopolska region it in-
creased from 0.9167 to 0.9432 kW kW per capita. The
same dynamics is observed in Poland, where the meter
of 0.9279 kW per capita in 2005 rose to 1.0041 kW in
2013. The growth rate of the test meter stand-alone basis
for Wielkopolska amounted to 2.89% and 8.21% for the
Polish.
Period between 2005 and 2013 shows the increase
in investment in renewable energy. While in 2005 the
rate in Poland per capita amounted to 0.1008 MWh in
Wielkopolska it reached 0.0268 MWh size in 2013. The

Wielkopolska has favorable conditions for the de-
velopment of the energy sector. The updated strategy for
development of the region by 2020, a document adopted
in 2012 by the Board of the Wielkopolska Region as a
basis for territorial contract determines its development
potentials. It includes the strategic objective of "Better
management of energy", among others:
− Optimization of energy management (opera-
tional objective 3.1);
− Development production and use of alternative
energy sources (operational objective 3.2);
− Improving the region's energy security (opera-
tional objective 3.3).
To others, significant in terms of renewable energy
strategic objectives should be improving the environ-
ment and the rational management of natural resources
(strategic objective 2), including, among others, opera-
tional objectives: protection of forest resources and their
rational use, reduction of emissions of substances into
the atmosphere, protection of water resources and an in-
crease in flood security, or promotion of ecological hab-
its. These objectives constitute evidence of RES in the
region of Wielkopolska, others – causing certain limita-
tions in this sectors’ expansion.

While the Regional Operational Programme for
2014-2020, is a document – "strategy for the operational
programme's contribution to the Union strategy for
smart, sustainable and inclusive growth", referring to the
ongoing climate and energy strategy directly. It indi-
cates the priority axis "3 Energy". Almost 352.2 million
has been allocated to its support from the European Re-
gional Development Fund, it represents 14,39% share in
total support of the program. Priority Energy axis, co-
vers the thematic objective "CT4. supporting the transi-
tion to low-carbon economy in all sectors ", which con-
sists of the following investment priorities with specific
objectives assigned to them:
4.1 Support the creation and distribution of energy
from renewable sources – Increase the share of renewa-
ble energy in energy consumption;
4.2 Promote energy efficiency and use of renewa-
ble energy sources in enterprises – Reducing energy in-
tensity of the economy;
4.3 Promoting energy efficiency, intelligent power
management and the use of renewable energy sources in
public infrastructures, including public buildings and
housing sector -Reduce energy intensity of the residen-
tial and public sectors;
4.4 Promote low-carbon strategies for all areas
types of territories, in particular urban areas, including
the promotion of sustainable multimodal urban mobility
and adaptation measures to mitigate the impact of cli-
mate change – reducing greenhouse gas emissions
[Board of the Region of Wielkopolska 2014].
It is worth noting that ENEA SA as a modern en-
ergy group will spend in 2014-2020 almost 20 billion zł
for investments, including 4.5 billion for investments in
"green energy", which should further increase by 1.9
GW of generation capacity. The prospect of the devel-
opment of renewable energy sources by the year 2025 is
shown in table 6.
The role of the region in the development of energy
potential cannot be underestimated. There are both plan-
ning issues, the provision of administrative decisions as
well as financial support. ENEA Operator with its stable
network expandability also participates in this process.
Annually, it provides more than 17 million MWh of
electricity to nearly 2.5 million customers in an area of
over 58 thousand. km2. Infrastructure of the company
consists of 111 thousand. km of power lines, including
4 600 km of high voltage 110 kV lines, 36 thousand dis-
tribution transformer stations, including 228 stations of
110 kV / MV - the main feeding points. Geographically,
this is an area of 6 regions consisting of 353 municipal-
ities.

3. Impact of installed power capacity on the in-
vestment attractiveness and development of Wielko-
polska
Taking into account the reports Research on the
market economy and presented in them conditions for
investment attractiveness of Wielkopolska Region stays
at the forefront of Polish regions. In the years 2010-2014
Wielkopolska was regarded as a region of above-aver-
age attractiveness. The strengths of the area are the re-
sources and labor costs, activity towards investors and
the availability of transport. Details are presented in a
fig. 2.
Also, resources and labor costs in Wielkopolska
are at a high quality level. From 2010, the region ranks
third in the ranking, ranking behind provinces: Śląskie
and Małopolska. This position is influenced by, among
other things: the number of workers, vacancies, the per-
centage of unemployed, wages and the influx of gradu-
ates of secondary schools and universities. Detailed
specification of market needs demonstrates in detail
fig. 3.
Among the determinants of investment attractive-
ness stands out the market capacity, which means the
possibility of selling goods and services by a potential
investor in the region. This allows for faster return on
investment, reducing the final cost of goods through a
reduction in transport costs. Parameters such as the size
of the market, business investment spending and wealth
of households rank among the regions of Wielkopolska
in in detail is shown in fig. 4.
Also, economic infrastructure has a significant im-
pact on the investment process. Taking into account
such indicators as density of business environment insti-
tutions, the number of fairs and exhibitions, the presence
of research centers and functioning of special economic
zones, you will notice that in Wielkopolska is at a satis-
factory level. Analyzing further the existence of special
economic zones and the use of highly advanced technol-
ogy and cooperation with R & D centers, this region de-
serves to be innovative every detail with respect to other
provinces is shown in fig. 5.
Summary

ляють і актуалізують проблеми, пов'язані з енерге-
тичною безпекою країни / регіону, вирішення яких,
у свою чергу, є вагомим фактором у розвитку сучас-
ної ринкової економіки. У даній статті на прикладі
Великопольського воєводства проведено аналіз ри-
нку енергетичної потужності та викладено рекомен-
дації щодо забезпечення регіональної енергетичної
