Geothermal energy projects are advancing across several Polish regions, including Szczecin, Bańska Niżna, Sochaczew, and Trzebnica.

In Szczecin, exploratory drilling is planned to reach depths of approximately 1,950 meters to verify geothermal water temperatures between 70-75°C. Once integrated into the municipal heating system, the resource is expected to meet a significant portion of the city's heat demand. In Bańska Niżna, an existing production borehole may be integrated into the heating network by the end of 2026, with water temperatures expected to exceed 80°C. Meanwhile, in Sochaczew, construction is ongoing for a pipeline and the expansion of a geothermal plant to support the local heating network.
