Poland activated Baltic Power, its first offshore wind farm located 23 kilometers off its Baltic coast, just beyond the edge of Poland's territorial sea. Poland owns the turbines but not the surrounding waters. The undersea cables transporting power from the turbines to shore lie on the sea floor where ships, including some from Russian ports, have dragged anchors through undersea cables and pipelines repeatedly since 2023. The video explores Poland's strategic decision to develop offshore wind power despite the risk of Russian sabotage, highlighting Poland's break from coal and Russian gas dependency, challenges posed by maritime law that leaves offshore infrastructure vulnerable, precedents from a Finnish court case on accountability for cable damage, and a broader pattern of Russian sabotage on Polish soil. The video also includes visits to the wind farm and a Gdansk factory building offshore wind towers, as well as offshore technician safety training. WindEurope, a wind industry association, funded the trip but exerted no editorial control. The video was published by Torin Russell on October 4, 2026.
