Opis:: Waste as a local resource is a development opportunity for resource owners as waste may act as a foundation for bottom-up development at local levels. This paper presents the most important governance challenges that hamper a paradigmatic change in resource efficiency, a transition towards circular economy in the case of Pécs (Hungary). In recent years waste management infrastructure has evolved to provide resource potentials for recycling and reuse, this is a first step towards a (circularity) transition, however, the centralisation of power is hampering local transitions. The article concludes by arguing that in Pécs (Hungary), the transition towards a local resource-based development is impeded by a myriad of legal, institutional and administrative obstacles created by recent efforts towards institutionalisation.

Opis:: The concept of sustainability is attracting great attention as societies become increasingly aware of the environmental consequences of their actions. One of the most critical challenges that humankind is facing is the scarcity of resources, which are expected to reach their limits in the foreseeable future. Associated with this, there is increasing waste generated as a consequence of rapid growth in the world population (particularly inurban areas) and aparallel rise in global income. To cope with these problems, a linear strategy has been applied to increase efficiency by reducing the use of materials and energy in order to lessen environmental impacts. However, this cradle to grave approach has proven inadequate, due to a lack of attention to several economic and social aspects. A paradigm shift is thus required to re-think and innovate processes (as early as inthe design phase) in such a way that materials and energy are used more effectively within aclosed-loop system. This strategy, known as the cradle to cradle approach, relies on the assumption that everything is aresource for something else since no waste is ever generated in nature. In line with the cradle to cradle approach, the bio-inspired circular economy concept aims at eco-effectiveness, rather than eco-efficiency. While the circular economy has neither a confirmed definition nor a standardized methodology, it nonetheless carries significant importance, since it “is restorative and regenerative by design and aims to keep products, components, and materials at their highest utility and value at all times, distinguishing between technical and biological cycles,” in accordance with the goals of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Despite some controversial opinions that “circles are not spirals, and for growth to occur, spirals with ever-increasing radii are required,” the circular economy concept is taking a central role in the sustainable development debate and, for this reason, deserves attention. The aim of this paper is to shed light on this debate, pointing out the main features of the emerging circular paradigm along with sustainability transition theories and circularity evaluation tools.

Opis:: In view of the increasing relevance of renewable energy, Danish and German university partners of the European Future Renewable Energy (FURGY) project developed and conducted a qualitative and a quantitative regional foresight (“Delphi”) study which primarily provided the data for this article. Based on the main findings of this regional foresight study and additional data, we present and discuss in this article four different scenarios for the development of the renewable energy sector in the FURGY region until 2030. These scenarios describe four cases: (i) “modest improvement as “most probable future”, (ii) “worst case”, (iii) “predominantly negative case”, and (iv) “best case”. We conclude our article with concrete police recommendations which can help regional, national and European policy makers to initiate a transition process from “modest improvement” to “radical improvement” of the conditions for the renewable energy sector in Europe, its member states and regions.

Opis:: The green transition unfolding on a global scale is much less studied at the regional level, although its outcomes and management are strongly place-specific. This article presents a comparative study of green transition strategies in the Silesian Voivodeship (Poland) and the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug (KMAO) – Ugra (Russia), based on a qualitative content analysis of regional legislation and strategies. The regions share common specialisation in fossil fuel mining and have inherited some features of post-socialist economies. Research shows three common features of green transition policies in the studied regions. Firstly, much attention is paid to the dissemination of information about green transition and its benefits. Secondly, research on various green subjects and educational programmes for green market requirements are developed. Thirdly, it is planned for renewables to have a larger proportion in regional energy mixes. By mid-century, both regions are expected to reach climate neutrality, although by using different paths of development. Coal mines are planned to be closed down in the Silesian Voivodeship by 2050, while the KMAO – Ugra will retain its oil-mining specialisation but diversify it with hydrogen production.

Tytuł:: Solar panels on every rooftop? Photovoltaics boom in Poland and the role of the European Union funds
Autorzy:: Łapniewska, Zofia
Tomczyk, Damian
Opis:: This study investigates the rapid expansion of photovoltaic (PV) investments in Poland from 2015 to 2024, comparing the development of the PV market with other renewable energy technologies. Drawing on secondary data from the Energy Regulatory Office, Statistics Poland, and Eurostat, alongside primary research, the analysis identifies key drivers of this growth. Primary data include a consumer and prosumer survey conducted in 2021 and 2024, and annual performance observations of a 4.4 kW PV micro-installation in central Poland to estimate return on investment (ROI). Findings confirm that the PV sector is the fastest-growing segment of Poland's renewable energy market, primarily driven by government subsidies co-funded by the European Union. Rising energy prices and the financial viability of PV micro-installations are primary motivators for adoption. Additionally, survey respondents highlighted environmental quality improvements and the welfare of future generations as significant factors. This study underscores the interplay of economic, policy, and societal drivers in shaping Poland's PV market boom.
Niniejsze badanie analizuje szybki wzrost inwestycji w fotowoltaikę (PV) w Polsce w latach 2015–2024, porównując rozwój rynku PV z innymi technologiami energii odnawialnej. Opierając się na danych wtórnych pochodzących z Urzędu Regulacji Energetyki, Głównego Urzędu Statystycznego oraz Eurostatu, a także na badaniach pierwotnych, identyfikujemy kluczowe czynniki napędzające ten wzrost. Dane pierwotne obejmują ankietę przeprowadzoną wśród konsumentów i prosumentów w 2021 i 2024 roku oraz roczne obserwacje wydajności mikroinstalacji PV o mocy 4,4 kW w centralnej Polsce w celu oszacowania zwrotu z inwestycji (ROI). Wyniki potwierdzają, że sektor PV jest najszybciej rozwijającym się segmentem rynku energii odnawialnej w Polsce, głównie dzięki subsydiom rządowym współfinansowanym przez Unię Europejską. Wzrost cen energii oraz opłacalność finansowa mikroinstalacji PV są głównymi motywatorami ich adopcji. Ponadto respondenci ankiety wskazywali poprawę jakości środowiska i dobro przyszłych pokoleń jako istotne czynniki motywacyjne. Badanie podkreśla współdziałanie czynników ekonomicznych, politycznych i społecznych w kształtowaniu "boomu" na rynku PV w Polsce.

Opis:: The United Nations (UN) have formulated seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and thus, humans were trying to traverse the sustainable path. Meanwhile, the COVID-19 pandemic has emerged and forced out the ephemeral conventional approaches. Thus, the post-COVID world indicates the need for sustainable development and strategies in par with the ecosystem. The authors propose this study as a guide to direct the post-pandemic scenario into the sustainable pathway by prioritizing energy sustainability to engage the actions for achieving the SDGs. The analysis in this study commences with the investigation of pronounced impacts in the energy sector with its influence on the progress towards sustainability. To pursue the path of energy sustainability, a qualitative analysis is performed in a parallel approach from the key viewpoint of the renewable and sustainable energy transition, digital transformation of the energy sector and energy affordability in the post-COVID world. A SWOT-AHP hybrid methodology is employed to identify the significance of each strategy or issues to be focused on immediately in the post-COVID world. The study also discusses energy sustainability from political bodies and policy makers' perspective, and the actual scenario where we are headed is revealed with the aid of process-tracing method. Furthermore, a novel quantitative analysis is established to represent the SDG's interaction and the result shows that the SDG 7 is the underpinning goal in relative to other SDGs. In context with it, the mapping of energy sustainability to the sustainable world is accomplished. The ultimate inference from envisioning the SDGs through energy sustainability shows that a sustainable world would result after the pandemic. However, the changes in the energy market, investment preferences and more importantly, the decisions influenced by the political bodies in the post-COVID-world is decisive in achieving the same in a stipulated time frame.

The Territorial Agenda 2030 aims to provide multi-level strategic orientation to increase cohesion and overcome the 21st century pressing challenges. In multilingual contexts, the ideas and concepts communicated in such agendas must be clear and well-defined. In our study, we conducted a content analysis of the concepts of environment, inequality, justice, sustainability, territory and transition in contrast with former versions of this agenda. We found that, since 1983, the Territorial Agenda conceptual framework changed significantly in its meaning and semantic universe of reference.

Opis:: The textile industry is faced with many problems today. In addition to having to meet customers' changing preferences and expectations, who wish to stay abreast of fashion trends and stand out from the crowd, it also needs to make efforts to change its image of one the biggest polluters in the world it has earned due to production processes consuming large amounts of resources that end up as piles of household waste. The circular economy (CE) model to reduce the environmental footprint seems to be the right solution for textile companies implementing sustainable development strategies. This paper discusses the principles of the CE model and makes an attempt at explaining how textile companies transition to it. It is based on the analysis of 34 textile companies sampled from among the members of the European Circular Economy Stakeholder Platform, which was conducted using a special analytical checklist compiled from the ReSOLVE and BECE frameworks. Because of the proportions and degree of integration between strategic and operational practices they used to achieve circularity, they were divided into integrated, hybrid, and selective organisations.
Branża tekstylna boryka się obecnie z wieloma problemami. Oprócz konieczności spełniania zmieniających się preferencji i oczekiwań klientów, którzy chcą podążać za modą i wyróżniać się z tłumu, musi także wziąć pod rozwagę swój status jako podmiotu zanieczyszczającego środowisko. Nie tylko bowiem procesy produkcyjne pochłaniają duże ilości zasobów naturalnych, ale produkty tej branży zamieniają się w ogromne ilości odpadów w gospodarstwach domowych. Model gospodarki o obiegu zmkniętym (GOZ), który ogranicza ślad środowiskowy przemysłu, wydaje się być właściwą drogą dla firm tekstylnych do realizacji strategii zrównoważonego rozwoju. Autorzy artykułu przedstawili zasady koncepcji gospodarki o obiegu zamkniętym i analizują działania podejmowane przez firmy tekstylne w celu dostosowania swoich modeli biznesowych do ram GOZ. Korzystając z ram ReSOLVE Fundacji Ellen MacArthur, autorzy zaprojektowali model teoretyczny objaśniający, w jaki sposób firmy tekstylne przechodzą na paradygmat gospodarki o obiegu zamkniętym. Analizie poddano 34 przedsiębiorstw tekstylnych umieszczonych na platformie European Circular Economy Stakeholder Platform.

Opis:: Celem artykułu jest charakterystyka modeli biznesu przedsiębiorstw energetycznych w kontekście budowy i zachowania ich odporności, aplikujących cele neutralności klimatycznej w ramach strategii zrównoważonego rozwoju. Starano się odpowiedzieć na pytanie: w jakim zakresie dążenie do neutralności klimatycznej w strategiach zrównoważonego rozwoju przedsiębiorstw energetycznych wpływa na odporność tych przedsiębiorstw? Artykuł podsumowuje wyniki badań dotyczące odporności modeli biznesu przedsiębiorstw energetycznych aplikujących cele neutralności klimatycznej w ramach strategii zrównoważonego rozwoju. W badaniach wykorzystano wielokrotne case study, którym objęto pięć zagranicznych przedsiębiorstw energetycznych szczególnie uzależnionych od uwarunkowań globalnych związanych ze zmianami klimatu. Podstawowym instrumentem badawczym zastosowanym w artykule był model wykorzystujący koncepcję tzw. Nowej Ery Innowacji, podkreślający rolę innowacji w tworzeniu wartości, wyboru procesów biznesowych oraz architektury technicznej i społecznej. Uzupełniony został o elementy modelu Canvas. Badania wskazują, że możliwe jest budowanie i utrzymanie odporności modeli biznesu przedsiębiorstw energetycznych w kontekście neutralności klimatycznej, realizowanej z uwzględnieniem strategii zrównoważonego rozwoju.
The aim of the article is to characterise the business models of energy companies in the context of building and maintaining their resilience, applying climate-neutral objectives within the framework of a sustainable development strategy. The author seeks an answer to the question: to what extent does the pursuit of climate neutrality in the sustainability strategies of energy companies affect the resilience of their business models? The article summarises the results of the research on the resilience of the business models of energy companies applying climate neutrality goals as part of their sustainability strategies. The research used a multiple case study involving five foreign energy companies. They are particularly influenced by global conditions related to climate change. The primary research instrument used in the paper was a model using the concept of the so-called New Innovation Era, emphasising the role of innovation in value creation, business process choice and technical and social architecture. It was supplemented with elements of the Canvas model. The research indicates that it is possible to build and maintain the resilience of business models of energy companies in the context of a change in the structure of electricity generation towards the replacement of coal-based sources with lowor zero-carbon energy sources, climate neutrality, implemented taking into account sustainable development strategies.
