Poland plans to produce 8.85 percent of its energy from renewable sources this year, up to 13 percent in 2015 and 16.78 percent in 2019, the center-right government said in a statement on Tuesday.
More than 90 percent of Poland's electricity comes from highly-pollution coal. Warsaw wants to develop nuclear and renewables projects as it tries to align its economy with the European Union's ambitions to cut carbon dioxide emissions.
Under the bloc's plan, Poland should be producing at least 15 percent of its energy from renewable source by 2020.
"Actions aimed at growth in energy production from renewable sources would require introducing changes in many legal regulations…Ordering and streamlining of support that will be granted to producers of energy from renewable sources will also be needed," the government said.
Warsaw would be working on the new laws in the second quarter of this year, it said.
