Analysis
Poland recorded 90.8 terawatt-hours for primary energy from low-carbon energy in 2025. That is the highest value across all 61 years on record.
The figure is up 7.1% on the previous year and up 82.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, primary energy from low-carbon energy in Poland peaked at 90.8 terawatt-hours in 2025 and was at its lowest, 0.9748 terawatt-hours, in 1965.
That places Poland 34th out of 77 countries with data for 2025, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
