PGE and Ørsted have completed installation of all 111 foundations for the Baltica 2 offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea, including 107 turbine foundations and four for offshore substations. The monopiles, up to 100 meters long and weighing around 1,900 tons, were installed on schedule. Work is now shifting to electrical substations, export cables, internal cabling, and turbines, with more than 400 additional structural components to be fitted, 75% of them produced in Poland. Turbine installation is planned for 2027.

The 1.5 GW project is expected to generate its first electricity in the first half of 2027 and reach full commercial operation by year-end, supplying renewable power to about 2.5 million households.
