Request summary
On 6 October 2025, a Request was submitted to IPAM regarding the Nozdrzec Wind Project (OP ID 54013) in Poland. The Requesters allege that the project proceeded without meaningful public consultation, that project level grievance mechanism was ineffective, and that the Client entered private land without valid lease agreements. They claim that operation of the turbines has caused adverse impacts on the local community, including noise, shadow flicker, infrasound, electromagnetic disturbance and loss of terrestrial television reception, with several turbines located within 500m of residential dwellings.
The Requesters also raise concerns regarding the conduct of site security, intimidation and legal pressure against those opposing the project, and broader shortcomings in the actions of local authorities and procedural safeguards.
