Abstract
The topics addressed in the article concern the problem of exploiting the potential of renewable energy sources (RES) at the regional level and the problem of the course of regional energy transition processes. Throughout the world, energy transition proceeds in a specific way for each country, due to the different potential of the selected RES and political, institutional and socio-economic conditions. Energy transition processes should support a situation where we have an energy mix based on diversification of conventional and RES. The need to systematically increase the share of energy from renewable sources is indicated here. This fact not only creates opportunities for the production of clean, green energy, but also allows us to focus on the issue of energy potential at the regional level. The main purpose of the article is to conduct an assessment of the energy potential and the course of the regional energy transition for the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (Poland). The analysis performed will allow to determine the degree of energy self-sufficiency of the selected region. The results obtained will also allow answering the fundamental question of whether achieving energy independence based solely on RES is possible at the regional level. It seems that obtaining a positive answer to this question will provide an important argument for supporting energy transition processes. These processes are aimed at developing an economy based on RES.
