The Central Statistical Office (GUS) has reported that households in Poland had a significant share in gross inland energy consumption, excluding motor fuels, and that average electricity consumption in households in 2021 increased by 20.9 percent compared to 2002. According to the GUS, in the structure of energy consumption in households in Poland most relevant were solid fuels, mainly hard coal and fuel wood, which were most frequently used for space heating (by 32.8 percent of households) as well as for water heating (22.5 percent) and much less for cooking (1.7 percent). The data published by the statistical office also show that a highly relevant energy carrier is district heating, which was used for space heating in 52.2 percent of all dwellings, mainly in cities where it was the predominating commodity (74.3 percent). Moreover, 41.1 percent of households, i.e. 78.2 percent of all district heating consumers, obtained heated water from the district installation. (ICE VARSAVIA)
