Briefing - Poland's National Recovery and Resilience Plan: Latest state of play - 09-04-2026
The Polish national recovery and resilience plan (NRRP) – Krajowy Plan Odbudowy – is the third biggest plan under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF). It totals €54.7 billion, including €25.3 billion in grants and €29.4 billion in loans. The loan component has been reduced from €34.5 billion following the decrease in the level of implementation of several measures. Poland's NRRP has been revised four times, first on 8 December 2023 to add the REPowerEU chapter. The latest amendment was approved by the Council on 12 December 2025. The REPowerEU chapter has an estimated cost of €20.6 billion. The December 2025 revision aimed at streamlining implementation and included the amendment of 80 measures. Poland submitted another request to amend the plan on 11 March 2026, with the goal of aligning the schedules of reforms and investments with the actual pace of implementation. The NRRP includes 54 reforms and 59 investments aiming to promote economic recovery, while addressing structural weaknesses and pursuing the EU's objectives. The revised plan devotes 40.3 % to the green transition and 13 % to the digital transition (20.9 % excluding the REPowerEU chapter). Poland has so far received 49.2 % of the resources (€5.1 billion in pre-financing and €21.8 billion for three payments, covering five instalments, for both grants and loans); this is below the EU average (69 %) and corresponds to 45 % of all milestones and targets assessed as fulfilled (below the EU average of 53 %), suggesting that the period through to the August 2026 deadline will be crucial to ensure full implementation. The fourth payment request, covering the sixth and seventh instalments, is being assessed by the European Commission. The last payment covering the eighth and ninth instalment will depend on further progress in the implementation of the plan. Its submission is currently planned for September 2026. The European Parliament participates in interinstitutional forums for cooperation and discussion on RRF implementation and scrutinises the Commission's work. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. Fifth edition. Earlier editions were co-authored by Magdalena Sapała and Božena Destin Bobková. The 'NGEU delivery' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle of the plans.
