Poland is focusing on enhancing national energy security, climate resilience, and logistics infrastructure. At the Karpacz Forum, officials emphasized that the energy transition is a matter of independence and resilience, noting that coal will remain in the energy mix until nuclear power projects are operational. Environmental efforts include managing the deposit return system, which has collected 3.2 billion containers since October 2025, and protecting water resources and forests to ensure economic and military stability. In tandem with these domestic goals, there is an emphasis on strengthening logistics and fuel security. This includes a push to reactivate inland waterway transport to reduce carbon footprints and costs. Additionally, NATO is prioritizing the expansion of the Central Europe Pipeline System (CEPS) to secure fuel logistics on its eastern flank. To mitigate risks from threats such as low-cost drones, efforts are underway to develop resilient infrastructure, including protected fuel depots and underground storage. Recent developments indicate rising volatility in fuel markets. In Poland, diesel prices are expected to surpass 9 PLN per liter, a trend driven by refining disruptions and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. While the European road transport market is projected to reach a record 2 trillion ton-kilometers by 2027—offering growth opportunities for Polish carriers—rising fuel costs are intensifying discussions regarding the revitalization of inland water transport as a more sustainable and cost-effective alternative to road logistics.
