ESCO market in Poland current state and development perspectives

Abstract

This report was prepared as a part of research into the Polish ESCO market conducted by the Institute of Environmental Economics (IEE). Presented information about this market’s development is based on the results of the two first stages of the three-stage research procedure carried out by the consultants of the Institute of Environmental Economics and the CEM Market and Public Opinion Research Institute as well as the research conducted by IEE in 20111 . The stages implemented to date allow for a preliminary estimation of the total market turnover, analysis of ESCO involvement in respective sectors and identification of barriers impeding development of this market. The IEE plans to devote the next research stage to defining development perspectives for the ESCO market and analysing detailed aspects of its operation in the public sector.
