Changes in the Management Board of Baltic Power

Baltic Power announces that Kamil Kobyliński has been appointed to the Management Board of Baltic Power as a Member. He replaces Jarosław Broda, who has departed the project.

Kamil Kobilyński, joining as the new Board Member, is an experienced manager and energy sector expert with over 20 years of practice in the Polish and European energy markets. Throughout his career, he has progressed from junior roles to senior leadership positions, working for both international and domestic companies in the Energy and Oil & Gas sectors, including Vattenfall, PGNiG Termika, Tauron Polska Energia, GE Power, the PGE Group, EdP Renewables, and TotalEnergies. He specialises in business management, organisation development, strategic consulting, and leading energy transition projects. For more than five years, Mr. Kobyliński has been actively involved in the offshore wind energy sector, where he has held key roles such as Director of Offshore Wind Farm Projects at PGE Baltica and Offshore Director at TotalEnergies in Poland. He has also served as Management Board Member of TotalEnergies Renewables in Poland. Starting from September 2023 he has been the Chief Operations Officer and Board Member of ORLEN Neptun.

The Baltic Power project, a joint venture between ORLEN and Northland Power, has obtained the first Design Conformity Certificates for its turbines and offshore substations, issued by DNV. This achievement marks a significant step forward not only for the project itself but also for Poland's offshore wind industry. These certificates are crucial for the construction and subsequent operation of the offshore wind farm, ensuring compliance with applicable codes and technical standards.

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.
