The article presents a comprehensive study of the energy strategies of both countries, aimed at achieving their goals by 2050. A literature review presents global trends in energy policy, the current situation in Poland and Germany, and the importance of sustainable energy. For Poland and Germany, the current situation, goals, and strategies for 2050 are described, and the results of surveys carried out using a survey questionnaire are presented. A comparative analysis included a comparison of the goals and strategies of both countries and the results of surveys, presented in tabular form. This analysis drew conclusions regarding the differences and similarities in the approach of both countries to energy policy. The “Challenges and Prospects” section identifies potential challenges and presents opportunities and recommendations for the future. In conclusion, the article provides a thorough analysis, based on the methodology of a literature review, survey questionnaire, and tabular analysis, and contains important conclusions and implications for energy policy in Poland and Germany. The article also addresses the limitations of the study that may affect the interpretation of the results.

Air pollution has a serious impact on human health. Deterioration of the air environment causes 7 million premature deaths annually. Despite the active implementation of various environmental programmes and technical resources aimed at preserving and protecting the environment from anthropogenic factors, over 90% of the world's population live in cities that do not meet the air quality recommendations of the World Health Organisation (WHO). Intense and constant technogenic load necessitates continuous monitoring of atmospheric air quality. Sufficient, systematic and representative information is needed to study the spatial and temporal distribution of substances in the air basin, to predict pollution levels and to make correct environmental decisions. Environmental monitoring is a tool for obtaining such information. In this work the analysis of influence of radioactive waste of nuclear power plants on a radiation level of environment is executed and the tasks of its ecological monitoring in areas of location of the enterprises of nuclear power industry are considered.

“…Scientists are currently exploring energy sources that are both economically feasible and environmentally sustainable. Nuclear energy is a promising candidate as it is a low-carbon and secure energy source that can slow resource depletion and ecological degradation [2,3]. Presently, scholars continue to delve deeper into research within the nuclear energy sector.…”

Amid the global emphasis on efficient power conversion systems under the “dual carbon” policy framework, the supercritical CO2 (SCO2) Brayton cycle is a noteworthy subject, owing to its pronounced efficiency, compact design, economic viability, and remarkable potential to increase the thermal cycle efficiency of nuclear reactors. However, its application across various nuclear reactor loops presents divergent challenges, complicating system design and analytical processes. This paper offers a thorough insight into the latest research on the SCO2 Brayton cycle, particularly emphasising its integration within directly and indirectly cooled nuclear reactors. The evolution of the Brayton cycle in nuclear reactor systems has been meticulously explored, focusing on its structural dynamics, key components, and inherent pros and cons associated with distinct reactor loops. Based on the theoretical frameworks and empirical findings related to turbomachinery and heat exchangers within the cycle, we chart a course for future enquiries into its critical components, underscoring the indispensable role of experimental investigations. This paper conclusively assesses the feasibility of deploying the SCO2 Brayton cycle in direct and indirect cooling contexts, offering a forward-looking perspective on its developmental trajectory. The SCO2 Brayton cycle may become a focal point for research, potentially creating avenues for nuclear energy endeavours.
