On 18 December 2025, the President of the Energy Regulatory Office (URE) announced the results of Poland’s first competitive offshore wind support auction AMFW/1/2025. Three projects—Bałtyk I, Baltica 9 and Baltic East—secured the right to negative balance coverage with a combined capacity of over 3.4 GW. An additional bid for the 896 MW Baltica 1 project, submitted by PGE’s Elektrownia Wiatrowa Baltica 1, did not obtain support in this round, meaning Baltica 1 left the auction without a revenue support contract. The outcome confirms that, despite qualifying to bid and participating in the 17 December 2025 auction, Baltica 1 must seek CfD‑style support in a future auction round to underpin its post‑2030 commissioning plans.
