REPORTTHE FUTURE OF OFFSHORE WIND IN POLAND1INTRODUCTIONWhy Poland should pursue offshore wind?For many Polish enterprises joiningthe offshore wind industry is an opportunityfor substantial growthOffshore wind may create new employmentopportunities in the entire country,in particular in coastal regions andwill translate into higher competitivenessof the Polish economyProduction of electricity from offshorewind farms will contribute to ensuringenergy security of the stateDomestic production of fossil fuels is insufficient to satisfy energy demand of Polish citizens; therefore, Poland has to import the fuels from abroad(see the “Polish energy reality — fossil fuels” section on p. 12). The situation could be changed through production of electricity from easily accessible sources, such as offshore wind. Investments in offshore wind farms may be an effective response to the challenges facing the Polish energysector. Additionally, following the limited inflow of EU funds after 2020, the development of the sector may become the driver of economic growthfor the offshore sector and the entire economy. The diagram below briefly presents the advantages Poland may gain by including offshore windfarms in its energy strategy. You are welcome to read the entire report.Potential benefits from offshore wind farm construction:SOCIALECONOMICENVIRONMENTALSupport for the labour marketand local entrepreneurshipIncentives foreconomic growthLimited emissionsof pollutantsLower electricity pricesDecreased demandfor electricity importsCounteracting climate changeGuaranteed stable outputand electricity supplyLack of social conflictsSupport for the nationalcontribution to the bindingEuropean 2030 RES targetTechnological developmentLower electricityproduction costsHigh tax proceedsto local and stategovernments’ budgetsPolish Wind Energy Association psew.pl5Environmentally- andhuman-friendly electricityproduction

Today, it bringsus new opportunities.Almost a century ago the construction of Port of Gdynia became the growth driver of the country. Today, the outlook for the offshore wind farmindustry may become the growth driver of the Polish economy and the maritime sector.PORTOF GDYNIAFor many years the Baltic Sea has been crucial for the Polish economy. Ports along the Baltic coast are the Polish window to the world.The construction of the Port of Gdynia, completed in the 1920s,was a milestone for the Polish maritime economy. The port broughtnew commercial opportunities for the Second Polish Republic andsoon became one of the key ports in the Baltic Sea and the mainbase of the Polish Navy, protecting the Polish coast.Shipbuilding industry has been an important branch of the Polishmaritime sector from the very beginning. Shipyards in Gdynia,Gdańsk or Szczecin launched hundreds of vessels promotingPoland and our shipbuilding industry in the world. Polish shipyardsalso take part in the production of wind turbine components,preparing Poland for a technological leap into the future.Polish Wind Energy Association psew.pl13
