Abstract

Regional operational programmes provide support granted from EU funds for different projects implemented in individual voivodeships in Poland. The aim of the programmes is to improve the competitiveness of regions and to promote the sustainable development. The priorities of the regional programmes include inter alia transport, environmental protection and sustainable energy production.

The aim of the article is to analyze the support provided from chosen regional operational programmes for projects in renewable energy in Poland. The projects aimed at increasing the amount of electricity or heat produced from renewable resources and included for example modernisation of hydroelectric power plants or the installation of solar thermal collectors.

The article discusses the effects of the support and difficulties in implementation. The analysis included regional program documents and data on the support provided.
