Abstract: This presentation summarises the results of Deliverable 2.1, which analyses the decarbonisation pathway of the Polish economy in comparison with the European Union. Using the CAKE suite of modelling tools, including the extended d-PLACE model, the study evaluates macroeconomic impacts, the evolution of the Polish energy mix, and labour market transformations. Particular emphasis is placed on sectoral restructuring, wage dynamics, and distributional consequences for different groups of workers. The findings highlight both the challenges and opportunities of the transition, underlining the need for targeted policies that ensure a just and inclusive shift towards climate neutrality.
