Helium, together with lithium and hydrogen, is an important element supporting the energy transition and the global economy in pursuit of a “zero-emission system". Helium has been recently reintroduced into the list of critical raw materials [Regulation (EU) 2024 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 April 2024 establishing a framework for ensuring a secure and sustainable supply of critical raw materials]. Since reintroduction, EU Member States have been obliged to assess their geological knowledge on helium resource potential and develop strategies aimed at discovering and evaluating new helium resources. We overview the helium geological resources of Poland, outlining the importance and size of geological resources as helium begins to play a significant role in the raw materials policy of many world economies. This article focuses on 4He, the most abundant stable isotope of helium on Earth. Global demand for helium and its price are growing along with economic development.
