Commission has adopted all five Polish Operational Programmes with Territorial Just Transition Plans (TJTPs), under the Just Transition Fund (JTF), wtih more than €3,85 billion to support a just climate transition in the coal regions of Silesia, Małopolska, Wielkopolska, Lower Silesia and Łódzkie.

How distribution works :

  • €2.4 billion for Silesia and Western Małopolska
  • €415 million for Wielkopolska
  • €581.5 million for Lower Silesia
  • €369.5 million for Łódzkie

The Fund will specifically support the local economic diversification by investing in small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) working on renewable energy, clean mobility and other green sectors. To restore environmental damage from the mining activities, the JTF will also invest in rehabilitation and decontamination of 2,800 ha of post mining areas in line with the polluter pays principle.

The JTF supports territories that are particularly affected by the transition towards a climate-neutral economy. The Territorial Just Transition Plans (TJTPs) identify these territories with the Commission during the negotiations of the 2021-2027 Partnership Agreements and the associated programmes.
