Baltic Power Offshore Wind Supply Chain Meeting 2021 is another in a series of a online events dedicated to companies interested in supply chain cooperation for Baltic Power – a joint venture offshore wind farm project of PKN ORLEN and Northland Power.

Baltic Power is currently the most dynamically developing project in the Polish part of the Baltic Sea. It is not only a key element of ORLEN Group’s green transformation, one of the most important projects executed in Europe by Northland Power, but also a milestone in the transformation of the Polish energy sector. In 2024, we will start the construction of an offshore wind farm with a capacity of up to 1.2 GW, which will ultimately supply up to one million households with clean electricity.

Offshore wind energy in the Baltic Sea represents an opportunity to build a new industry. Its development requires a strong and efficient supply chain. Large investments in this sector will translate into development of hundreds of enterprises and creation of thousands of well-paid jobs.

In December 2020, during the first of the organised events, its participants could find out, among other things, what the Baltic Power project implementation schedule looks like, learn about the principles of the procurement processes in force and find out more about ORLEN Group’s plans to develop the offshore wind area. During this year’s edition, participants will have the opportunity to find out, among other things, what the current schedule of project implementation looks like and to learn about detailed requirements, expectations and plans for each of the seven so-called installation packages. The discussion of each of the packages will constitute a separate event, thus giving the opportunity to take part in each of the meetings and ask in-depth questions to the managers responsible for them.
