Abstract

The paper presents the role of excise duty on energy carriers in air pollution and climate change policy. The author shows that excise duty rates and tax exemptions provide incentives for switching to cleaner fuels and promote renewable energy sources. Furthermore, the article explores possible directions of changes in energy taxes in Poland. These changes can be based on experience gained by other European countries. The author shows that energy taxes can be introduced as a part of environmental tax reform.
