First foundations at the Baltic Power offshore farm installed
As scheduled, the offshore construction of the first Polish offshore wind farm Baltic Power, a joint venture between Orlen Group and Northland Power, has commenced in January. The first monopiles, the main part of the foundation, have successfully been installed in the Baltic Sea. In total, 78 foundations for both of the turbines and the offshore substations will be installed. Following the foundation work, the installation of wind turbines, substations, and subsea connecting cables will proceed. This operation is the first of its kind in Polish Baltic waters, setting the stage for a new era of energy production in the region.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
The Baltic Power offshore wind farm is an essential element of transformation of the ORLEN Group and a milestone in the development of the Polish power sector. As soon as in 2024, we will start the construction of an up to 1.2 GW offshore wind farm, expected to ultimately supply clean electricity to more than 1 ,5 million households in Poland.
POWER CALCULATOR
The Baltic Power offshore wind farm will have a capacity of up to 1.2 GW. What does this mean in real life? How many minutes does the farm have to run to power an electric train? How many phones can it charge in 1 hour of operation? Check in our power calculator!
FOR THE LOCAL COMMUNITIES
Offshore wind power generation is an opportunity for a civilization change and transformation of the Polish economy. It can also provide a growth stimulus for the regions where clean, green technologies will be implemented. Experts estimate that in 2030 over 30% of energy generated in Poland will come from renewable sources, mainly offshore wind farms. Their potential based on the permits issued for the construction of future offshore wind farms is about 16 GW. According to estimates by industry organizations, the total potential of the Polish part of the Baltic Sea may be as high as 33 GW.
FOR BUSINESSES
Offshore wind power generation in the Baltic Sea presents an opportunity to build a new branch of the economy. Its development requires a strong and efficient supply chain. Large investment projects in the sector will drive the growth of hundreds of businesses and create thousands of well-paid jobs.
