Poland will spend PLN 3 billion on port development, infrastructure, and maritime education in 2026. This is 50 percent more than in the current 2025 budget, Arkadiusz Marchewka, Undersecretary of State at the Ministry of Infrastructure, informed the media.

The Polish government will allocate funds from the state budget for the development of the Pomeranian Cape in Świnoujście and the construction of new ships for maritime universities. Funds from the Polish budget will be used to build infrastructure for the FSRU in Gdańsk and a pier for the Polish nuclear power plant, located 150 km west of Gdańsk.

The Polish government is financing a major program to develop the Polish Navy. The “Miecznik” program is being implemented in cooperation with a British company. Three modern guided missile frigates are being built for the Polish Navy at a gross cost of approximately PLN 14.8-15 billion. The frigates are being built at the Gdynia Naval Shipyard.
