Subject and purpose of work: The purpose of this work is to present the problem of municipal waste
management, and its use for the production of electric and thermal energy.
Materials and methods: The information used is derived from the CSO publication for 2015 in the
scope of the data on municipal waste and electric energy per province. To establish the rankings of
provinces, the method of zero unitarisation was applied, whose task is to bring various variables
to the state of comparability with different titres and orders of magnitudes; and then the results
derivedfrom the two rankings were compared.
Results: The rankings of provinces with respect to the state of waste management and obtaining
electrical energy in Poland in 2015 were presented. These rankings are characterized by a significant
degree of similarity.
Conclusions: Regional differentiation in individual Polish provinces in 2015 is relatively moderate.
