The Exclusive Economic Zone of Malta is a proposed exclusive economic zone by the Government of Malta which will extend Malta's responsibilities by 71,446 km2 beyond territorial waters.[1]
On 12 June 2021 Clyde Caruana, Minister of Finance and Employment, proposed an exclusive economic zone for Malta.[2] Caruana stated that an exclusive economic zone could hold economic potential for "fisheries, artificial islands, wind farms, solar farms, wave-generated electricity and revenue from shipping movements."[3]
