In Girona, an offshore wind farm project near Roses is among several energy, water and environmental infrastructure schemes facing months of delay at Spain’s Ministry for Ecological Transition.

Sources consulted by El Periódico, part of the same editorial group as L'Empordà, point to a bureaucratic blockage that is holding up investment. The delays affect renewable energy plans as well as water management and wider environmental works in Catalonia.

According to the Catalan government, the stalled projects are important for the current legislative term. Officials in Catalonia have raised concern about the slow pace of approvals for schemes they see as strategic for the region’s future.

The impact goes beyond one wind farm. The holdups mean significant investment intended for Catalonia is not moving ahead as planned, which could affect energy targets and environmental resilience across the region.
