Siemens Gamesa to supply turbines for 400 MW Offshore wind farm in Poland

Ocean Winds, an international company dedicated to offshore wind energy and created as a 50-50 joint venture in 2020 by EDP Renewables and ENGIE, has signed contracts for the supply of wind turbines and a service maintenance agreement for its 400 MW BC-Wind project located about 23 km north of the municipalities of Choczewo and Krokowa in the Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland. 

The agreement with Siemens Gamesa covers the delivery of 26 wind turbines, each with a nominal capacity of 14 MW and a Power Boost feature capable of increasing capacity to 15 MW. Installation and commissioning of these turbines are planned for the 2028.

This key project, part of Phase I of offshore development in the Polish Baltic Sea, will produce zero-emission energy capable of supplying electricity to approximately 488,000 households in Poland. The project aims to achieve a planned capacity of up to 390 MW, with a total farm area of 90.94 km².

The project currently holds an environmental decision for both the offshore and onshore components, as well as rights to a Contract for Difference (CfD). It is now at an advanced stage of development, with efforts focused on selecting the remaining key suppliers.
