The ORLEN Group and Northland Power have completed the installation of all 78 foundations at the Baltic Power offshore wind farm, located 23 kilometers off Choczewo, Poland. This marks a significant milestone for Poland’s first commercial-scale offshore wind project, finished in just four months.

The installation used Van Oord's Svanen vessel to drive XXL monopiles, which weigh up to 2,400 tonnes. The 1.2 GW project aims to power over 1.5 million households by 2026. Following this phase, the focus will shift to installing inter-array and export cables, connecting 76 turbines to two offshore substations and the onshore grid. The project plans to use Vestas V236-15.0 MW turbines for this phase.
