Polish power industry must cope with challenges of power policy of the EU.

Those aspirations are supposed to be met through: reduction of electricity losses in transmission and distribution, higher energy savings by end consumers, introduction of mandatory energy characteristics certificates for buildings put into use or to rent, energy markings on devices and products, information campaigns promoting rational energy consumption or supporting research into and development of new technological solutions reducing energy consumption.
