Baltic Power has finished setting all 78 monopile foundations for Poland’s first offshore wind farm, closing a key offshore construction milestone. The project is now progressing through follow-on installation and completion activities, with electricity from the Baltic Sea expected to reach the grid by the end of this year.

When fully commissioned, the approximately 1.2 GW development is expected to deliver up to 4 TWh of electricity per year—around 3% of Poland’s current national demand. The site lies about 23 km offshore near Choczewo and Łeba and covers roughly 130 square kilometres. Baltic Power is scheduled to enter operation in late 2026.

Build-out across major systems continues. Sixty of the 78 transition pieces have been installed, and 30 of the planned 76 wind turbines are already in place. Both offshore substations are complete. Onshore scope is nearing the finish line, with the onshore substation and onshore cable works each more than 90% complete.

Cable work offshore is advancing in parallel: export cable installation is ongoing, while installation of the inter-array cables is due to begin shortly. The project’s service base has been completed and is operational.

The monopile campaign involved more than 20 vessels and around 500 crew members and contractor representatives. Pile-driving was carried out with foundations weighing 1,300–1,700 tonnes and measuring up to 100 m in length.
