| Work Detail |
Poland’s Tele-Fonika Kable and the Industrial Development Agency (ARP) have set out plans to build specialised cable laying vessels (CLVs) designed for the installation and maintenance of offshore wind farm subsea cables. The scheme under a letter of intent signed by both parties also includes the development of support vessels to facilitate servicing and operational activities in the Baltic Sea, as well as in other regions such as the North Sea. The investment will prioritise the use of local resources and expertise, enhancing the role of Polish shipyards and domestic businesses in the global supply chain, the companies said in a release, adding that the project will be carried out through a special purpose vehicle that will oversee the construction of installation and service vessels. Poland is ramping up its domestic offshore wind supply chain as it looks to become the leading offshore wind player in the Baltic Sea. The country aims to have 5.9 GW of offshore wind capacity by 2030 as part of its first phase of offshore wind projects. This phase combines seven individual offshore wind farms. The Baltic Power project is set to be commissioned in 2026 and will be Poland’s first offshore wind farm. |
