In June 2021, the Polish Council of Ministers adopted the national maritime spatial plan for internal waters, the territorial sea and the exclusive economic zone (PZP POM). This regulation formally designated offshore renewable-energy ‘E-zones’, allocating parts of the Polish Baltic Sea for offshore wind development, including the area later used by the Baltic Power offshore wind farm. In its 2023 environmental decision for MFW Baltic Power, the General Directorate for Environmental Protection (GDOŚ) confirms that the planned project location remains consistent with this spatial plan, demonstrating that the project is sited within zones reserved for offshore wind under the 2021 Council of Ministers regulation.
