Abstract

The article presents the analysis of the impact of carbon leakage phenomenon on Polish economy. The key objectives of the climate package were discussed, along with the tool concerning the emission reduction, such as: European Union Greenhouse Gas Emission Trading System (EU ETS). The phenomenon of emission leakage is presented, which may pose a threat to the coal industry development in Poland. The article also shows the influence of the decarbonization policy of energy sector on the economic competitiveness of the member states in comparison to other countries where there are no emission limits.
