By the end of 2012, around 3,500 residents of small towns and villages within the Pomorskie voivodship will be able to use shale gas to heat their homes, reported Dziennik Gazeta Prawna.
The change will save them around zł.100 to zł.200 per year on their normal fuel costs.
It is estimated that shale gas will be about 20 percent cheaper for consumers than conventional gas imported from Russia.
Although the production of shale gas on an industrial scale is expected to be launched in Poland not earlier than in 2014, Polish oil and gas giant PGNiG wants to start testing production levels at its Lubocin location in the second half of 2012, writes Dziennik Gazeta Prawna.
