“…Poland and Slovakia are both members of the European Union, entering the EU in within the "Eastern enlargement" in 2004. Both countries are also members of the Visegrád Four group, and they share a common history during which they have progressed from energy surpluses [36,37] to the current threat of energy shortages [38,39].…”

Improving energy efficiency includes a number of measures implemented as part of the greening of the energy industry, which in turn is a prerequisite for the creation of a sustainable energy industry to ensure energy and environmental security for the world. Despite the adoption of the EU directives on energy efficiency, there is still insufficient public awareness in this area in Poland and Slovakia. This is particularly surprising because improving energy efficiency not only brings national and global benefits, but also has a significant impact on the well-being of individuals and households. The main purpose of the paper is to analyze the national policies of Poland and Slovakia, which are based on the European Directive 2012/27/EU on energy efficiency, and which introduce new measures aimed not only at increasing energy efficiency, but also at increasing the well-being of households and individuals. Methods of desk research and content analysis were used. The current situation in both countries is illustrated by case studies that document the administrative process (Slovakia) and the calculation of energy savings (Poland) when using renewable energy sources in the case of family houses.

“…The EU's goal of lowering net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55 percent by 2030 is referred to as "Fit for 55". According to this program, which was first implemented by the European Green Deal, it was stated that emissions should be reduced by 55% by 2030 [13,14]. Many researchers argue that this ratio is not enough, and the main target should be a reduction of 1.5 degrees.…”

Energy is one of the most fundamental elements of today’s economy. It is becoming more important day by day with technological developments. In order to plan the energy policies of the countries and to prevent the climate change crisis, CO2 emissions must be under control. For this reason, the estimation of CO2 emissions has become an important factor for researchers and scientists. In this study, a new hybrid method was developed using optimization methods. The Shuffled Frog-Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) algorithm has recently become the preferred method for solving many optimization problems. SFLA, a swarm-based heuristic method, was developed in this study using the Levy flight method. Thus, the speed of reaching the optimum result of the algorithm has been improved. This method, which was developed later, was used in a hybrid structure of the Firefly Algorithm (FA). In the next step, a new Artificial Neural Network (ANN)-based estimation method is proposed using the hybrid optimization method. The method was used to estimate the amount of CO2 emissions in Türkiye. The proposed hybrid model had the RMSE error 5.1107 and the R2 0.9904 for a testing dataset, respectively. In the last stage, Türkiye’s future CO2 emission estimation is examined in three different scenarios. The obtained results show that the proposed estimation method can be successfully applied in areas requiring future estimation.

“…The "Fit for 55" package mentioned above is certainly one of the most politically ambitious projects in the field of energy economy in Europe after the Second World War. It is especially ambitious for the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, where there are development lags in the area of modernization of technologies used for energy production in relation to Western Europe [3]. One such country is Poland, where most electricity still comes from power plants that run on hard coal and lignite [4,5].…”

The current production of water energy in Poland is much lower than the theoretical and technical potential. The aim of the article is to analyse the current state of hydropower in Poland as well as the prospects and conditions for development. Poland's total technical hydropower potential is estimated at 12,000–14,000 GWh/year, but currently, approx. 20% of this potential is used. The considerations undertaken in the study concern, for example, pumped-storage power plants and the development of small hydropower plants. Hydropower plants are not only important from the point of view of electricity production and storage, but also fulfill many other functions, including the general social, which is an essential element of the implementation of the concept of sustainable development. The analyses show that the hydropower sector in Poland may be an important element of low-carbon energy and an important element of energy security. Increasing the volume of electricity production from hydropower by 5% will contribute to the growth in CO2 reduction by 140,702 tons. The stabilization function of the power system in Poland is also significant.
