Research

The project aimed to synthesise data on social groups and entities vulnerable to fuel and energy price increases within the context of Social Climate Fund support. We prepared characteristics of: (1) households at risk of energy poverty, (2) transport exclusion and (3) micro-enterprises particularly exposed to the increase in energy prices. We also provided recommendations about socially fair measures to facilitate the energy transition.    * * * The project was financed by the Polish Ministry of Climate and Environment (agreement no: DFE-VI-12/2022)

The project aims to present proposals for creating social welfare and labour market policies that will respond to the changes taking place under the influence of megatrends - digitisation, globalisation, climate change and demographic change - in labour markets and welfare state systems in Europe.

The project analyses the relationship between social gender norms and decisions about labour market participation and childcare.

Risks associated with the decarbonisation of the Polish power system

Decarbonisation pathway will involve higher costs than the baseline pathway, but the electricity sector will emit half the CO2 by 2050. Read the key findings from the IBS report and seminar (28.11.).
