Poland's Banska PGP-4 geothermal project in Szaflary, aimed at becoming the world's deepest geothermal well and supplying one-third of the nation's heating demand, faces delays due to government preferences for nuclear and renewable energy sources. Despite initial tests revealing promising temperatures and flow rates, drilling was halted at 6103.2 meters due to technical issues. The discovery of a new aquifer at 5000 meters could enable future electricity production, marking a significant advancement in Poland's energy sector.
