Abstract :
Poland, the 34th most populous country in the world and 6th among members of the European Union, generated 142.9 TWh net electricity, of which households consumed more than 30% in 2010. This work provides an insight into the potential of smart buildings in Poland. The essential contribution of this work is the consideration of the experiences of the national electrical system operator, existing building technologies, feasible solutions, and opportunities for smart homes in Poland.
