The energy transition in Poland has long been a reality: offshore targets of 18 GW by 2040, relaxed minimum distance rules (10H) and a rapidly growing demand for green electricity from industry and business are creating enormous opportunities.
 But the challenges remain: Permits, grid connection, financing, supply chains.

👉 In this whitepaper you will get 7 proven strategies on how to plan wind projects in Poland faster, safer and based on data.

Why Poland in particular?

icon-erfolgGrowth Market with Regulatory Tailwind

  • Offshore targets: 18 GW by 2040 (PEP2040)
  • 10H rule relaxed: minimum distance now 700 m instead of 10 times the turbine height
  • Boom in demand due to cPPAs from the industry

icon-ertragssteigerungHigh Yield Opportunities

  • Onshore: Repowering increases yield by up to 30 %
  • Offshore: Constant sea winds, predictable power profiles

icon-standortStrategic Location

  • Network connection to Germany & Scandinavia
  • Local production & port infrastructure in expansion

The white paper covers these challenges

Approval Planning in Poland

  • Complex coordination between Gmina, Powiat, RDOŚ and GDOŚ
  • Public participation & environmental impact assessments (EIA)
  • Maritime spatial planning for offshore projects

icon-netzkapazitaetGrid Connection & Storage Integration

  • Overloading of the PSE grid
  • Regional differences in northern Poland
  • Early route and storage planning required



Financing & Bankability

  • CfD auctions & corporate PPAs as new standards
  • Earnings forecasts & risk analyses as a basis for investments

FAQ ON WIND FARM PLANNING IN POLAND

What Role Does the Relaxed 10H rule play?
The minimum distance rule was reduced to 700 m in 2023. This will create new areas, particularly in windy regions. This increases the chances of new projects.

What Are the Benefits of a Quick Assessment with 4cast Horizon?
You can see in just a few days whether a location is economically viable - without having to wait for lengthy expert reports. This saves you time and money and secures you space in a competitive market.

Can I also Use the White Paper without a Project in Poland?
Yes - many of the strategies can also be transferred to other markets, e.g. Germany, Spain, Portugal or the Baltic States.
