Bałtyk 3

Polenergia reports that all 120 km of Bałtyk 2 export cables have been installed, with burial and rock protection continuing. Inter-array cable installation has begun, while comparable offshore cable work for Bałtyk 3 is planned for 2027. Foundations for all 100 turbines and both offshore substations across the two projects are complete. Onshore cable routes, substations near Ustka and the Łeba operations base are progressing. The combined 1.44 GW developments with Equinor target first power in 2027 and full operation in 2028.

Polenergia reported first-half 2026 revenue of PLN 1.75 billion, EBITDA of PLN 214 million and net profit of PLN 43.2 million. The company said the 35 MW Rajkowy solar farm had completed commissioning and was awaiting its operating licence, while Bałtyk 2 and 3 offshore construction and export-grid works advanced. It had contracted 83% of forecast 2027 generation and 63% of 2028 generation, chiefly through instruments including power purchase agreements.

Equinor and Polenergia have launched a PLN 200,000 community funding programme for municipalities neighbouring the onshore infrastructure of Poland’s Bałtyk 2 and Bałtyk 3 offshore wind farms. The first round aims to support approximately four to eight projects, with grants of up to PLN 50,000 each. Eligible organisations in Ustka, Redzikowo and Łeba can propose educational, environmental, social, sporting and cultural initiatives that address local needs and provide lasting benefits. Applications are open from 28 September to 23 October 2026.

Equinor and Polenergia have completed installation of foundations for all 100 turbines and two offshore substations at the 1.44 GW Bałtyk 2 and 3 projects. Export-cable, substation and onshore grid works continue, with first power planned for 2027.

Polenergia and Equinor have completed installation of foundations for all 100 turbines and both offshore substations at their combined 1.44 GW Bałtyk 2 and 3 wind farms. Export-cable, seabed and grid-connection works continue, with first power planned for 2027 and full commercial operation in 2028.

The Bałtyk 2 and 3 projects have completed their offshore-substation topside, started monopile installation and passed the halfway point for 100 turbine foundations, while construction of their Łeba operations base continues.

Sif says its expanded Maasvlakte II factory reached planned output of four to five monopiles a week in the first half of 2026, lifting adjusted EBITDA to EUR 43.4 million from EUR 12.9 million. The company completed Ecowende production and is progressing foundations for Bałtyk 2 and 3, OranjeWind and East Anglia TWO, but cut its 2026 EBITDA outlook to EUR 95 million after shifting about EUR 40 million to 2027 to reduce production risk.

Smulders said the offshore substation jackets for Equinor and Polenergia's Bałtyk 2 and Bałtyk 3 wind farms have left its Newcastle yard for the Polish Baltic Sea after fabrication and preparation across several company sites.

Smulders has loaded the substation jackets for the Bałtyk 2 and Bałtyk 3 offshore wind farms onto barges in Newcastle ahead of offshore transport. The structures were prefabricated at Arendonk and Balen in Belgium and assembled at the company's UK yard for Equinor and Polenergia.

Equinor and Polenergia have completed land-sea interface drilling for the export cables serving the Bałtyk 2 and Bałtyk 3 offshore wind farms in Poland. The work created four roughly one-kilometre underground crossings to bring the cables beneath the beach and shoreline without open-cut excavation, helping protect the dunes and coastal ecosystem. The developers say the completed routes will next support cable installation and connection of the 1.44 GW projects to Poland's national grid.

Polenergia said horizontal directional drilling at the landfall for the Baltyk 2 and Baltyk 3 export cables has been completed, preparing routes for cables to connect the Polish offshore wind farms to the national grid.

Equinor and Polenergia say more than 50 monopiles and transition pieces have now been installed for the Bałtyk 2 and Bałtyk 3 offshore wind farms in the Baltic Sea. The developers say the projects are now halfway through the foundation installation phase, with offshore substation foundation works due to start later this summer. They also say the two projects will together comprise 100 turbines with combined capacity of 1.44 GW and remain on track for first power in 2027 ahead of full commissioning in 2028. The update marks another major construction milestone for one of Poland's largest offshore wind developments.

Polenergia said offshore installation of turbine foundations at the Baltyk 2 and Baltyk 3 projects has reached the halfway point, marking further construction progress for the two Polish Baltic Sea offshore wind farms being developed with Equinor.

The Baltyk 2 and Baltyk 3 project company said Equinor and Polenergia have completed the first "Setting the Course for Offshore" training programme, giving technical-school students in Pomerania practical exposure to offshore wind safety, supply-chain work and project operations.

Heerema Marine Contractors said it installed the first offshore wind foundations for Equinor and Polenergia's Baltyk 2 and Baltyk 3 projects, with the first 23 monopiles and transition pieces marking the start of the offshore installation campaign.

Polenergia said offshore construction reached a new milestone as Equinor and Polenergia installed the first offshore wind foundations for the Baltyk 2 and Baltyk 3 projects in the Polish Baltic Sea.

Polenergia said Baltyk 2 and Baltyk 3 had completed the first phase of subsea rock installation, advanced onshore substation and cable-route works, and moved the Leba operations and maintenance base into final construction stages.
