The Atlantique Offshore Energy, the marine energy business unit of the French company Chantiers de l’Atlantique has been selected by RWE for engineering, procuring, constructing, installing, and commissioning of the electrical offshore substation for the F.E.W. Baltic II offshore wind project in Baltic Sea.
The 350 MW offshore wind farm will have the capacity to generate enough green electricity to supply the equivalent needs of around 350,000 Polish households.
The substation will collect and export the power generated by the offshore wind turbines through high voltage submarine cables, while remotely controlling and monitoring the operation of the wind farm. Design activities have already started, with early permitting activities expected this year and the full installation of the substation scheduled for 2025.
