Baltic Power Offshore Wind Farm Installs Its First Turbine In Poland

Northland Power Inc. is pleased to announce the successful installation of the first turbine at the Baltic Power project, a 1.1 GW offshore wind farm under construction in the Baltic Sea. Baltic Power is a joint venture between Northland and ORLEN Group that is expected to be Poland’s first operating offshore wind farm.

The first15 MW Vestas V236 turbine, among the largest in the world, was installed safely and successfully, marking a critical construction milestone. In total, 76 turbines will be installed, generating enough clean electricity to power over 1.5 million Polish households – equivalent to 3% of the country’s electricity demand. The project is expected to achieve commercial operations in 2026.

“This milestone signals continued progress for Baltic Power and reinforces our strong execution capabilities,” said Christine Healy, President and CEO of Northland Power. “We are proud to bring Poland’s first offshore wind farm to life.”

Baltic Power is among the first in Europe to install 15 MW turbines. The turbines feature blades measuring over 115 meters and a rotor sweep area of nearly 44,000 square meters.

“Installing the first turbines is a major technical and logistical achievement, and a testament to the strong planning and collaboration behind the project,” said Toby Edmonds, Executive Vice President of Offshore Wind at Northland Power. “As the first offshore wind project in Poland to enter the installation phase, Baltic Power is not only leading the way, it’s setting new benchmarks for the region’s renewable energy future.”

Work continues across other parts of the project, including foundation and transition piece installation, export and inter-array cable preparations and onshore infrastructure. The service base in Łeba, Poland, opened in April 2025, supportsthe project’s operations and maintenance activities.

Baltic Power is a landmark development in Poland’s clean energy transformation and a core component of Northland’s global offshore wind portfolio.
