Poland and UK to commission shale gas report
Poland and the United Kingdom will commission an independent analysis on the impact of shale gas extraction development on the two countries and the EU as a whole, Environment Minister Maciej Grabowski said on Friday.
The report should be completed before the end of this year, Grabowski said.
“Shale gas production may improve energy security, economic growth and, what is equally important, it may help reduce carbon dioxide emissions,” the minister said. “Knowledge about this potential is not common,” he added explaining that this is the main reason for commissioning the report.
