- Two offshore substations, each 2,500 tonnes, installed 20 km off Poland's coast.
- Completion of the wind farm is scheduled for next year, providing 1.2 GW capacity.
- The project involves a consortium of CS Wind Offshore, Semco Maritime, and Polish companies.
- Local-content ratio expected to reach at least 21% over the farm's lifecycle.
Offshore Substations Installed
Baltic Power has completed the installation of two offshore substations, each weighing 2,500 tonnes, as part of Poland's first offshore wind farm. These substations will collect electricity from 76 turbines and transmit it to the shore.
Local Manufacturing and Involvement
Parts of the substations were manufactured in Gdynia and Gdańsk, with significant involvement from Polish companies. The main contractor was a consortium of CS Wind Offshore and Semco Maritime, supported by local firms.
Project Details and Timeline
The wind farm, located 20 kilometers off the coast near Choczewo, is scheduled for completion next year. It will provide 1.2 GW of capacity, meeting the energy needs of over 1.5 million households.
Local Content and Future Prospects
The project aims for a local-content ratio of at least 21% throughout its lifecycle. This includes contributions from Polish companies in manufacturing, installation, and construction, offering valuable experience for future projects.
