We are striving to systematically streamline and standardise environmental procedures for renewable energy sources across the country, which will shorten the investment process and enable the faster development of new installations.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Reform Institute monitors the implementation of the areas of accelerated renewable energy development (OPRO) and other EU and national reforms in the field of environmental procedures. Our areas of interest include, amongst others, the revision of the RED Directive as part of the Grids Package and the so-called environmental omnibus bill. We monitor their transposition into Polish law. We prepare recommendations and organise expert meetings with public administration bodies, the regulator and grid operators to develop joint solutions. We highlight the need for systemic improvements to procedures not only for renewable energy sources, but also for energy storage facilities and electricity grids.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559685&quot;:0,&quot;335559737&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240,&quot;335559740&quot;:279}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The project provides analyses, recommendations and expert commentary on the process of obtaining planning permission for renewable energy sources and energy infrastructure in Poland. These efforts result in proposals for specific improvements to administrative procedures. By combining analysis with facilitating dialogue on the permitting process, we ensure that the national legal framework responds to the real needs of the market and is based on reliable data.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559739&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">These activities enhance the quality of the legislative process, promoting more predictable rules for the implementation of energy projects.
