Poland key for energy from Baltic Sea, attracts foreign capital

Ocean Winds, a joint venture of Engie from France and EDPR from Portugal, plans to begin generating electricity from its first offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea within four years. The project, BC-Wind near Władysławowo, aims to connect to the grid by 2028.

Despite challenges in the second phase of offshore development in Poland, where state-owned firms PGE and Orlen secured all locations, Ocean Winds remains committed and is contesting this decision. The company sees Poland as a key market and aims to expand through partnerships. The project is progressing with necessary permits and agreements in place.
