Right, my comment was ignoring the geopolitcal constraints -- which are, um, substantial. But, there is an LNG terminal in Świnoujście that will soon(ish) be upgraded to process 8.3 billion cubic meters per year of LNG, which from what I understand is about 50% of Poland's current natural gas demand. There are also plans to connect to a pipeline system that has access to Norwegian gas. I think if we are making like 20-year plans it's reasonable to assume access to more natural gas with fewer Russia dependencies. Obviously if we could skip this whole stage and go right to renewables and better storage that would be great, but there is at least some potential for gas.
