Frans Timmermans visits Eastern Greater Poland – takeaways for the just transition model

18th May 2023 Vice President of the European Commission Frans Timmermans visited the Eastern Greater Poland region, which is on track to phase out coal by 2024 – decades ahead of the rest of Poland. This initiative could serve as a model for the just transition of other coal regions in the country. However, decision bottlenecks in both Warsaw and Brussels threaten to hinder progress. Instrat works closely with stakeholders in the region to make the just transition happen.
