The paper discusses the legal environment and European and Polish initiatives related to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and achieving climate neutrality and the resulting consequences for the conventional energy sector in Poland. Subsequently, the possibilities of co-combustion of hydrogen and ammonia in pulverized boilers were analysed, and finally fuel costs and requirements related to the logistics of hydrogen fuels were estimated.
