Conservative Law and Justice (PiS), Poland's main opposition party, is campaigning on a pledge to scrap the EU’s emissions trading system (ETS), branding it “Brussels’ cash machine.” However, most of the ETS funds that were spent under PiS’s own government were largely used to support the state budget. Just 1.3% went toward projects that would actually reduce emissions and ease costs in the long term.In this episode of The Warsaw Wire, energy reporter Patryk Strzałkowski unpacks the ETS dispute that could shape the 2027 election.
