On 28 February 2023, Spain’s Ministry for Ecological Transition approved the Maritime Spatial Planning plan (POEM) via Royal Decree 150/2023, designating the Cape of Creus/Gulf of Roses area off the Costa Brava as the only zone in Catalonia where offshore wind power plants can be installed. This formal identification of the Gulf of Roses as a marine wind power development area provides the spatial planning basis for projects such as Capital Energy’s 510 MW floating L’Empordà offshore wind farm.
