Poland is a good example. Poland relies mostly on coal to meet its energy needs, which are expected to rise by 80-90% by 2025. However, the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions as part of Kyoto protocol and EU national allocation plan commitments has resulted in a shift in Polish energy policy towards nuclear energy, with a Government resolution adopted early in 2009 requiring that by 2020 part of the electricity consumed should be generated by nuclear power (FORATOM, Country Profile of Poland).
