Ziemowit Miłosz Malecha wrote that similar constraints can be expected in Poland as well when plans to build several GW of offshore wind energy are realized. He assessed that constraints may become a daily reality, perhaps earlier than anticipated, and pointed to their occurrence in Germany, Denmark, the United Kingdom, and China.
