Vertis on the Future of Heating on the #GrzejemyTEMAT Podcast
Description
In early October 2025, Vertis Environmental Finance was invited to join the #GrzejemyTEMAT podcast, a leading Polish platform exploring the future of heating and sustainable energy solutions. The podcast is produced by PEC-GLIWICE, one of Poland’s leading district heating companies, which provides heat generation and distribution services to residential, commercial, and public buildings in Gliwice. PEC-GLIWICE is also actively involved in promoting energy efficiency and the integration of renewable energy into local heating systems.
Our expert Tomasz Bujacz, Team Leader of the Polish Market at Vertis Environmental Finance, joined the discussion to explain how the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is influencing the heating industry’s transition toward low-emissions solutions. The conversation covered:
- How the EU ETS works and why its importance for the heating sector continues to grow
- What the rising CO₂ emission prices mean for heating companies and local utilities
- How district heating operators can prepare for the energy transition and remain competitive
- Whether climate goals can be realistically reconciled with current market dynamics
