The development of wind farms in the Baltic Sea is expected to generate 11 GW by 2040, but the potential of coastal
is estimated to be even more than 30 GW. Unfortunately, the development of onshore wind farms is consistently
restricted by the legislature. According to estimates by the Polish Wind Energy Association (PWEA),
‘700 metres’ amendment will prevent up to 84% of planned onshore investments. What solutions
can help in the development of wind energy?
Maciej Mróz, vice-president of the management board of Tauron Zielona Energia, emphasises that the new regulations, which increase the
minimum distance between turbines and buildings, may result in fewer but more
efficient ones. Anna Kornecka, director of the Clean Poland Programme Association, in turn emphasised the importance of the
distance act, according to which the distance between turbines and buildings cannot be less than 700
metres. At the same time, in accordance with the law on planning and spatial development, the impact of
the impact on wind energy development must also be taken into account.
Jarosław Broda, a board member of Baltic Power, emphasised that offshore farms are a good source of energy, as the
turbines cannot be built closer than 25 km from the coastline. “Offshore farms also provide opportunities for
transport and distribution of power,” he said.
However, to meet decarbonisation targets, we need to develop both onshore and
and offshore. To do this, we need friendly regulations that enable us to increase the amount of
wind energy in the system. As Jaroslaw Broda said, “the fact that we need to increase the amount of renewable energy in the
system is indisputable”.
However, to achieve these goals, we need friendly regulations that enable us to increase the amount of
wind energy in the system. The development of wind energy should go hand in hand with the protection of landscape and
nature.
Undoubtedly, wind energy development is necessary to increase the share of RES in the Polish energy mix and to meet climate targets.
energy mix and achieve climate targets. However, one cannot ignore the problems associated with its
development, such as social conflicts, threats to nature and landscape, and the lack of clear regulations
regulating this sector.
In the context of this problem, Joanna Wis-Bielewicz, Head of Market Development at Orsted, highlighted the
the importance of social dialogue and cooperation with local communities in the investment process.
We need to act transparently, talk openly with communities, listen to their needs and concerns. In this way
this way we can build trust and minimise the risk of conflicts,” she said.
Wind energy development is essential to achieving climate goals, but it must be carried out in a
sustainable and taking into account the needs of local communities and the protection of nature and landscape.
Therefore, it is important for the government and the RES development industry to have an open
dialogue and work together to create win-win solutions.
