The paper deals with the application of green economy principles within the EU in the post-crisis period. It builds on previously published research on the impact of the economic crisis on a selected set of green economy indicators. The aim is to find out, on the basis of the selected indicators, how the application of green economy principles has evolved in the two periods under study – immediately after the economic crisis and in the present. The study is based on statistical analysis of six indicators in the pre- and post-crisis period: GDP, Unemployment, Productivity, R&D expenditure, Share of RES, CO2 emissions. In all monitored indicators, taking into account EU-wide averages, a shift towards a greener economy can be observed. Correlation analysis clarified the basic relationships between the indicators. Based on the factor analysis, it can be said that countries do not show significant variations and there is no significant tendency to form clusters. This may mean that the current selection of indicators no longer fully explains the changes associated with the green economy.
