Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article was to present the activities implemented and applied by Polish enterprises registered in the EMAS system, which are significant in the context of the enforcement of the energy policy assumptions. In order to achieve this goal, at the outset, selected assumptions of Poland’s energy policy were characterized and activities that could serve their implementation were presented. Then, the EMAS system requirements, relevant to the implementation of selected policy assumptions, were described. The rest of the article presents the results of own research. The basis of the research method used was the analysis of secondary sources in the form of environmental declarations of Polish enterprises registered in the EMAS system. Based on the analysis, it was found that the surveyed enterprises have taken actions that may be relevant to the implementation of the main directions of the energy policy regarding: improvement of energy efficiency, development of the use of renewable energy sources and reduction of the negative impact of the energy sector on the environment
